shouldn't they be happy to die? like isn't heaven supposed to be great?
if you're scared of it doesn't that mean you either think you're going to hell or don't really believe?

I don't think that's how Christianity works. Yes, Heaven is supposed to be great, but that still doesn't mean they should be happy to die since God would want us to live a full life.
I think it's pretty natural to value life over death. Only humans have the luxury of choosing to not want to live, but we still have the natural drives for survival.
God made me this life so i need to value this life. Of course he made heaven amazing and stuff but they want him to know that they value what he gave them
I'm Catholic, so I kinda have the same beliefs as Christians.
My BIGGEST fear is death. I fully believe in God, and Heaven, but I also believe in hell. I'm scared of not seeing my family anymore, and I'm scared of hell. I always stop to ask myself "what if I go to hell?" But then I convince myself that I'm a good person and God loves me.
Religion is a very complicated thing when it comes to feelings.
