Oh wiseless one, if GOD had wanted those Gospels to be in the Bible we have today, they would be there
Keep learning oh wiseless one filled with hope & joy believing there is nothing after death
The gospels were chosen by man to fit the narrative.
I'm looking forward to maybe having grandkids and plenty more gardening before I cash in my chips. All of my joy and hope is reserved for this life.

His belief gives him hope
- He hopes that he will not wake up in eternity facing the GOD he rejected & ridiculed while alive
His belief gives him joy
- He is joyful believing that he will never see his deceased loved ones again

He is happy with the joy & hope that his belief gives him
I'm going to be a pile of ashes which will be scattered on the isle of Anglesey.
Explain to me how on earth I'm going to be able to come back from that and 'wake up'
to face God?
I would love to see my loved ones again... But knowing that my brain and eyes will be gone makes that an impossibility.

Sure I have. Why?
Because that's what you're seeing in the Bible. There are actually upwards of 500 prophesies, most of which are unfulfilled. We are waiting for the return of Jesus for the bulk of them to actually be fulfilled in a meaningful way... Not just in text in the same collection of books.

Hi Mancunian,
The authentic gospels were chosen based on certain criteria.
1) They had to be written by an apostle or one in close relationship with an apostle
2) They had to agree doctrinally with the teachings of the apostles
3)They had to be written in the 1sy century, in the time of the apostles
4) They were already in widespread use.
