To the Family, I am truly sorry to hear about the passing of your dear love one. The Bible explains death in familiar rather than mysterious terms. For example, it repeatedly likens dying to ‘falling asleep,’ and it describes dead people as “sleeping in death.” Psalm 13:3. Death is also identified as an “enemy.” 1 Corinthians 15:26 More important, the Bible enables us to understand why death is like a sleep, why death afflicts mankind, and how this enemy will finally be defeated. So Family be strong knowing that it will not be long before the Kingdom is going to get rid of death, sickness, pain and suffering. May the God of all love and comfort give you peace in the days ahead.
