It’s natural to wonder why people die, especially when we lose someone close to us. The Bible says: “The sting producing death is sin.â€â€”1 Corinthians 15:56.The first humans, Adam and Eve, lost their lives because they sinned against God. (Genesis 3:17-19) Death was the only possible outcome of their rebellion against God, for with him is “the source of life.â€â€”Psalm 36:9; Genesis 2:17. Adam passed on the defect of sin to all his descendants. The Bible says: “Through one man sin entered into the world and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men because they had all sinned.†(Romans 5:12) All people die because they all sin.—Romans 3:23.God promises a time when “he will actually swallow up death forever.†(Isaiah 25:8) To remove death, he must eliminate its root cause, which is sin. God will do this through Jesus Christ, who “takes away the sin of the world.â€â€”John 1:29; 1 John 1:7
The heavenly transference of our beloved Sister in Christ, is the will of God. Her absence causes us to sense a brokenness of the human tie and our hearts pain in agony. Yet, we are encouraged and consoled by the comforting words of Jesus who said: “I will not leave you comfort less.†John 14:18.
Our deepest condolences to The Jones Family & Friends, may you find comfort in the memories of Louise and hope within this scripture, John 11: 1-44.Â
Please accept my deepest sympathies , Death of a loved ones leaves a deep void in our hearts, no wonder for death is unnatural. We were not designed to accept death as a normal part of life. (Romans 5:12) God’s Word thus calls death an “enemy” (1Corinthians 15:26), therefore God does not take our loved ones from us. May your family find comfort in the hope promised at Isaiah 25:8 when “death is swallowed up forever.”
