After Death

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to His abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead” (1 Peter 1:3).

Distressed that the subject of death and dying was becoming taboo in our western culture, Bill and Judith Moyers produced a television series showing that an honest discussion of the subject helps many die with calm acceptance. However, no mention was made of faith in Christ or His resurrection.Therefore, it gave no example of anyone dying triumphantly.

When Stephen was being stoned by his enemies, he prayed, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit” (Acts 7:59). Only those who believe on the Lord Jesus Christ are able to die with joy and triumph, and anticipation. Because Jesus died for our sins and rose from the grave, we who believe on Him can die with a living hope and that certainly goes far beyond just calm acceptance.This is because, for the believer, it is “to be with Christ; which is far better” (Philippians 1:23).
