The State of the Soul After Death [Booklet]

About This Product

Excerpt: The believer may rest perfectly assured that, departing from the body, he will be present with the Lord, and if His presence is joy to him, that joy will be his. No one would be more anxious to press the Lord’s coming and our waiting for Him, and the importance of the resurrection. I would urge it, as I have urged it on the saints, and indeed upon all in its due place; but not to weaken that all live to God, even if they are spirits in prison, nor the excellent joy and blessedness of being with Christ when we depart, that to die is gain. It has justly cheered and shed heavenly light on many a dying bed, and will yet, if the Lord tarry, and the Scripture is as plain as to the happiness of the saint on his departure as to his being with Christ — far better, as to joy, than the most successful service here, as it is that Christ will come and take all His saints to be with Him forever in glory, like Himself, though the latter is the full and final state of eternal blessedness, when the marriage of the Lamb withal shall have come, when we shall be forever with the Lord.
