Question:
Is it okay to be afraid to die?

Answer:

Many Christians, while not being afraid of being dead, have a fear of dying.  Will it hurt?  How long will I suffer?  What will it feel like to go through the process of dying?  Being afraid of something you have never experienced is natural, but believers are assured that when we pass away, we will be in the presence of the Lord (2 Corinthians 5:8).  One camper remarked, “If one is not saved, they should be afraid to die.”
