The bad news…
"…the dead know not anything …" (Ecclesiastes 9:5).
"… there is no work, or device, or knowledge, or wisdom in the grave where you are going" (Ecclesiastes 9:10).
"The dead praise not the LORD…" (Psalm 115:17).
"In death there is no remembrance of Thee: In the grave who shall give Thee thanks?" (Psalm 6:4-5).
The good news…
“…for the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed…then will come about the saying that is written, “DEATH IS SWALLOWED UP in victory.” (1 Corinthians 15:50-54)
All die, that is the result of sin, but death is to be swallowed up in the victory of immortal life.
For my wife, children and grandchildren..and anyone else who may be interested!
