Can something good be said about death?
It Separates friends, families and sows pain, grief and sadness.
The Bible says that death is our great enemy.
However, the Bible also gives us hope!
John 5: 28, 29 as well as Acts 24:15; indicate that there will be a resurrection of the just and unjust.
Psalm 37:29 also promises that the righteous will possess the Earth.

My condolences, as feelings of pain and bitterness become unbearable. It is my desire to convey a comforting thought based on the Holy Scriptures
John 5:28 "Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out."
This passage speaks of the resurrection of our loved ones. It is not God's plan to see us suffer and die, so He extends the following invitation to us: "Come near to God and He will draw near to you" (James 4:8)

Hi Carol -- Jackie and I were saddened to hear of Ed's passing. We have such fond memories of you and Ed during our time at Bethel. We are glad to know he is home safe in heaven yet the separation must be sad for you and your family. We are thankful that "we don't grieve like those who have no hope" yet we do grieve the temporary separation. May God surround you with His love as you grieve!
