i know that we all have different insights about salvation and resurrection, some say that after death, we resurrect, rise or live again after we are dead but on a different or another form. while in salvation, what i understand is after we are dead, either we are save or we will suffer, so the choice is in our on hands. if we choose to be save from sufferings after death then we should do what should really be done. some say we are save when we accept Jesus Christ as our personal lord and savior, but for me accepting is not enough, we must accompany it with an action.

If those are the options, I will go with the reincarnation. I don't believe resurrection is the right word, that would describe zombies, not a new life. Although I do not believe in any map or that we "come back" as a human again.
We, like all things, are energy. Energy cannot be destroyed, therefore we cannot truly die. However, I do not really believe in the individual soul. I believe that when we die, just as our body is returned to the earth, our spirit is returned to the universe and we are transferred and transformed into something new, some of the energy may go one place and the rest may go somewhere else. It's like a glass of water. A glass of water is a glass of water, "separate" because of its container, but if the glass is removed and the water is dumped into the ocean, that water that was in that glass is now one with the rest of the water.
Nothing lasts, but nothing is lost.
At any rate, the salvation theory is not contradictory to the reincarnation theory. Wouldn't it be more fair to have more than one life to learn than to only get one in which most of our actions are so determinant on situation?

hi! yeah, i admit it's a mistake, i should have write reincarnation not resurrection, i am sorry. i have already post before i noticed it.
because of many beliefs, we are sometimes confuse what to follow or believe but it is up to us to what to follow and what to believe. because we are living on different purpose, (as many people says). and for me, while we are living in this earth we should learn them because if we die, how can we learn or know them.

The meaning of life constitutes a philisophical question concerning the purpose and significance of life or existence. This concept can be expressed through a variety of related questions, such as: Why are we here? What existed before we were born? What is life all about? What is the meaning of it all? And does it make sense?

i agree with you that when you believe, you should accompany it with action. but the concept actually is that you first have to believe, you have to accept and in turn when you believe, whenn you accept christ, your actions will reflect this belief.
