The other side
"Today thou shall be with me in paradise." Luke 23:43
"To the brotherhood of the bereaved, to which I belong."
We see death only from a human point of view. Jesus, however, has been on the other side of the grave and all that He has said about death contradicts the traditional ideas of philosophers. Man think that death is great darkness but, having Christ it's something to look forward to. We speak of death as a departure; heaven sees it as an arrival. We call death a hooded spectre; heaven sees it as an angel of light. We call it separation; heaven calls it reunion. We call it the grave; heaven calls it the gateway. We say goodbye here, but it is "Good morning " there. The sun set here, but for a Christian, death is indeed "sunrise with Jesus for eternity."
I love what Dwight L Moody says
When you see the headlines that I'm dead, don't believe it! I'll be alive as never before. In order to experience this you must be born again. Make Jesus the Lord of your life. We all gonna die some day. The question is, Where will you spend eternity? God loves u.
