Of course, we talk about Jesus’ death and his resurrection. But why is Jesus' burial important for our faith as Christians?
At the moment of Jesus’ death he said these beautiful words. “Father, into your hands I commend my spirit.”
He will guide us beyond death. That's a striking statement.
Can a dead person choose to be alive? No, it doesn't work that way.
When you are faced with suffering and death, look to your baptism there in those waters you see and find comfort, peace and assurance.
Death is the most jarring and unsettling thing in this life.
What happens when you die? It's a question that everyone should consider.
They had the best of intentions and what they said was true, but it was not at all helpful.
Pastor Don Moldstad compares the constant reminder of mortality to a "Death Church." We find hope in Jesus' resurrection, which brings us into the "Life Church." Through Christ, death is overcome, offering believers eternal life.
Arachnophobia, like the fear of death, is common, yet unwarranted for those with faith in Christ. As Paul's words to the Corinthians express, death's sting is negated by Jesus' sacrifice. Believers need not fear death; it's merely a passage to eternal life, a victory and hope through resurrection afforded by faith in Jesus.
