Contrary to what some want to believe, Scripture teaches that we live and die once and then face God's judgment.

It is a privilege to live now for Christ while we joyfully anticipate the day when our mortal death takes us to Christ's presence eternally.

Would you want to know in advance the exact day you will die? God knows the number of our days, but He doesn't reveal that to us.

Some people should fear death. Others should not. Which group are you in? Has Christ set you free from the fear of death?

We can't raise ourselves from spiritual death to life any more than Lazarus could raise his body from the dead. Only Christ can give life.
