The Simplest Truth: Life After Death is a Continuation of This Life

Those who endure a hellish life on earth will continue to suffer in the spirit world, while those who live a heavenly life here will carry that same peace and joy into the afterlife.


Many people who follow various world religions believe that after death, they will ascend to heaven and live happily ever after. 

This belief is a cornerstone of their faith. But the question remains: will they truly enter heaven and experience eternal happiness once they pass away?

The Lord offers us insight into this:

If someone builds a relationship of love with God while still on earth, is filled with the grace of the Holy Spirit, and lives a life of joy and gratitude, they will continue to experience that same love with God after death. They will remain filled with the Holy Spirit’s grace and will continue to live a life of joy and thankfulness.

However, if a person fails to cultivate love for God during their lifetime, receives no spiritual grace, and endures inner torment, they will find that their existence after death mirrors the suffering they experienced on earth—without the comfort of grace.

In other words, the life we live on earth shapes the life we experience in the spirit realm after death.

The world beyond death is simply a continuation of the world we live in now.

Your death won’t dramatically change the way you experience life.

Therefore, to experience true freedom from emotional suffering and to embrace a life full of boundless joy and grace, we must learn to build a relationship of love with the Lord while we are still here on earth.

RAPT『蛹から蝶へ』MUSIC VIDEO: "Chrysalis to Butterfly"

Image
  Listening carefully, without hesitation, I live by each and every Word. With all my heart, with all my mind, I live toward the day I'll be complete. As a chrysalis, I can't fly. But to spread the wings of love, I will overcome tears and doubts, One day, I will soar, so free above. Without blame for the child I am, I’ll keep learning to grow strong. Until the butterfly unfurls its wings, I’ll trust the guidance of love all along. As a chrysalis, the sky feels so far. But the wind of the Word will grow my wings. With prayer, I’ll grow, One day, I’ll soar to the highest skies. I can’t end as a chrysalis, Love and truth will transform me. The marks of my tears are carved in my wings, Like God, I’ll shine into the light.

God’s Word: The Perfect Guide to Living a Fulfilling Life

Image
Recently, as I was walking, I looked up and saw migratory birds flying across the sky, their wings glowing in the warmth of the setting sun.  It reminded me of something I had read in a scientific paper—that migratory birds have an "invisible map" that helps them navigate their journey every year. This map, based on the Earth’s magnetic field, guides them along specific routes to build nests and complete their life cycles. It struck me that, just like the birds, we too have a path to follow in life—a right path that, when followed, leads us to the most fulfilling and meaningful life we can live. I discovered this "map" when I first encountered the teachings of Rapt Nakamura, which revealed the profound truths about the world and life itself. These teachings have helped me recognize and eliminate the harmful and unnecessary aspects of my life. I’ve come to understand the true purpose of life and the best way to live it, which has brought me a deep sense of joy and pe...

Let the voice of prayer echo through the sky. Holy Spirit, cover this earth. The light of hope pierces the darkness.  A new era begins now. By the power of prayer, shine upon the world.
