he has lived this earthly life. And then it becomes clear how, if you do not believe in this statement, you run the risk of living like an animal, like a plant that exists only biologically and then dies. It is we humans who think that we are very intelligent and evolved compared to animals, for example. In fact, on the scale of the entire Universe, we are insignificant, and our intelligence and development are insignificant. The risk is that if everything that is written in the Scriptures is true and you don't believe it and you live as a biomaterial, as an animal, without believing it, you will lose everything. You will be among those who are not favorable to your Creator, you will really die, disappear, and be separated from your relatives and close people forever. In fact, after death, you and all your loved ones (if they are also unbelievers) may go to hell (I think everyone knows what this place is). You will lose eternal true life and receive eternal torment. This is the risk of unbelief.
If there is no way to eternal true life if what is written in the Scriptures is not true, but you believe in it, do you risk anything? No — absolutely nothing. There is only one end for everyone in such a case — you will disappear. And your life, even a hundred years, is a grain of sand in this Universe.
So if you don't believe, there are only risks. If you believe, you either risk nothing, or you get eternal life, where you come prepared, knowing that you will have to answer for your earthly way. And maybe you go to Paradise (I think everyone knows what that place is).
It is logical to hedge the risk that there is with the possible truth of the Holy Scriptures, for the people who do not believe in them. After all, this risk is infinitely dangerous; it is worth the fear of even the most desperate and fearless people. So why would one take such an infinitely great risk, realizing the possible torment? No one would dare expose themselves to it, the only question is the realization that it is real. Again, dry calculation and logic lead even a non-believer to believe.
The logic of the apparent existence of the Original Source and the infinitely unattainable order on Earth and in the Universe, as well as in the Scriptures, inclines me to believe in the truth of the Bible and the Qur'an, not to be reassured, but because of the obviousness that I have realized by applying simple logic.
If you don't believe, then you just haven't tried to realize, you are just lazy or afraid to realize the infinite danger of the future. It's everyone's choice to believe or not to believe. I choose to realize that death is a transition to another life, as the Scriptures say. This gives meaning, great hope, and joy, removes the fear of death, and motivates one to learn about the Original Source through the Holy Books. And the conscious reading of these Books makes the faith even stronger and gives not hope but a real, clear realization that everything it says is true.
The path of unbelief leads only to death. To constant mental disorders, to depression, to nightmares. To thoughts that your end and the end of all your loved ones is the same — death, cessation of existence. This way leads to the formation of a personality with a worldview of death, not of life. I emphasize — leads to the formation, which does not mean that it is good. Paradoxically, this worldview is formed precisely because people do not think about death and ignore the fact of its existence as if it were somewhere infinitely far away.
Think of any significant, important, exciting, and memorable day in your life. For example, the day you graduated from elementary school, the day you graduated from college, the day you got married, the day a child was born, or, unfortunately, the day that someone close and dear to you died. So it happened once, and it can never happen again. And once you either looked forward to the event, worried about it the day before, or suffered agonizingly the day you heard about it. Once, before all these events, we didn't even think about them, then they suddenly came, and now it's all behind us as if nothing had happened. In childhood, we don't think about death, and in adolescence, many people don't think about it at all, but it will come to you, just like all the events mentioned above, and this is a fact that most people ignore throughout their lives. But think about it for a moment, maybe it will happen tomorrow or a hundred years from now, but it will inevitably happen, just like all your important, exciting events that have already happened. I'm 37 years old now, I used to think that was an unattainable age, but lo and behold, school, university and so much more are behind me. And that Day will come incredibly quickly. This is a fact, this is our reality, and this is what awaits us very soon. Earthly life is very fast. And when that day comes, the day of death, everything material, everything living, ceases to exist for you, and you think about what comes next, but it is too late to think.
All this is just to say that our life is very short and the end is very near. There is little time to doubt faith, much less to live the right way.
The difference is that for the unbeliever, death is death, but for the believer, death is resurrection, the passage in eternal life.
