Don’t think of death as the end of life but rather a candle being put out because the light of morning rises.
death
We are buried
We are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. Romans 6:4
He is not here
He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Matthew 28:6
Oh Death
Oh Death, where is your sting. Oh Sin, where is your victory. Oh Church come stand in the light. Our God is not dead, HE’S ALIVE, HE’S ALIVE! 1 Corinthians 15:55/Matt Maher
Christ did not die to forgive
Christ did not die to forgive sinners who go on treasuring anything above seeing and savoring God. -John Piper
Christ is glorified in me
Christ is glorified in me when people see he is more precious to me than all that life can give or death can take. -John Piper
