So sorry to hear of the passing of your love one you have my deepest sympathy . ,but what the bible says about the dead is that there is going to be a resurrection back to life we really can believe what the bible says. ,for at least three reasons. ,why because J eh God is the Creator of life two God has resurrected humans in the past .three he is eager to do it again very soon. J eh God hates death he is not the cause of death the Devil is in the bible book of Gen at Ch 3:17-19 an Romans Christ 5:12 tells you why we grow old and die.soon God will remove death at Rev Christ 21:4 says that there will be no more sickness or death do you believe this? ,I hope that you find comfort in what the bible says

Please accept our sincere sympathy for your loss. We hope you will find comfort in the words of Revelation 21:1-5. There we read a promised guarantee that our loving Creator will permanently put an end to pain and death. This will be on a new earth, a peaceful paradise, which God intended it to be. We know this promise refers to the earth because there has never been death in heaven.

You have my deepest sympathy for your !is a .but this is not the end you can see your love one right here on earth not in heaven what the bible says about life and death . ,the bible says things straight in the book of Gen account of creation starting in Genesis Christ 2:16&17 this tells of the tree of good and bad of J eh God ,s command then in Gen By 3:1-6 the act of disobedience and it is still with us today.your love one can live again forever right here on earth which God says is mankind's home not heaven this is at Rev Ch 14:1 that only 144,000,will be with him in heaven that Ch2:7 says that J eh God form the man out of dust from the ground and blow into his nostri!s the breath of life and the man became a living person . ,the bible makes clear that humans are not created as individual with a soul that is immortal but a living person. ,this is not in the bible that expression immortal soul.so you can be confident that you will see your love one again here on earth by means of the Resurrection at Acts By 24:15 that there's going to be a resurrection .there is real hope of being reunited with your dead love ones at Jhon Christ 5:28&29 this is about the Resurrection i hope that you find comfort in what the bible says. ,Hebrews says at 6:18 that it is impossible for God to lie this is a reality that's what life will be like under the rule of J eh God,s kingdom Ps 37:29 and Isaiah Christ 65:21-23 says

Please accept our sincere condolences on your loss. We hope you find comfort in the words of Revelation 21:1-5. There we are told our loving Creator's promise to put a permanent end to death and pain. It is guaranteed. Even more marvelous is His promise to bring our loved ones back to life right here on earth. (John 5:28,29) We know this promise refers to the earth because there has never been death in heaven. ( Psalms 37:9-11)

Jim, I didn't hear anything about Dick passing, until my brother said he didn't show up for the golf team that they both played in
Both Dick and myself are real sorry for your loss. We both feel really sad we didn't catch it, but my brother just had a triple bypass, and he couldn't do anything. Give me a call if you need anything.

Welcome

Richard E. Wilson
