“If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all
men most miserable, but now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the first
fruits of them that slept. For since by man came death, by man come also the
resurrection of the dead, for as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all
be made alive.” (1 Corinthians 15:19 – 22)
Christ came to show us the way by his birth, life, death,
and finally by his resurrection. Death is not the end. This time on earth is
but a moment. We lived in heaven a long time ago and came to earth even as Christ
did as a newborn baby. Just as we entered this life through the portal of birth
we will leave through the portal of death to be reborn (or resurrected) back
into the life we lived in heaven. It’s hard to remember that with all the joys
and troubles of this life, but there is life beyond the grave.
