Good News About Death

I Wrote This 10 Years Ago
I wrote this 10 years ago and read it at my dad's funeral. I hope you enjoy it. It is pretty special to me, just like He was.
DEATH
Death is just a tranquil sleep,
Tis not the end so please don't weep.
To leave this world there is no choice,
Yet greave not for me, let your heart rejoice.
An eternal home will soon be mine,
A glorious home that is finer than wine.
Angels will welcome me with songs of love,
Leading me in to heaven above.
My body will be cleansed whiter than snow,
My crown will be covered with stars aglow.
In peace and harmony my God I will meet.
For He holds for me a blessed seat.
So when you see me drifting away,
Don't allow this to be a sad filled day.
Remember Dear as I close my eyes
There is no Christian that truly dies.
We will meet again in that eternal land,
And walk forever hand in hand.
There'll be no tears nor any more strife,
God promised His Children Eternal life.

Good News About Death

The Good News About Death
1 Corinthians 15:50-58
The Word of God teaches that physical death is the beginning of a new existence for believers. The Lord has prepared an eternal home where those who honor His name can rejoice forever. The condition for entry is simple: believe that Jesus Christ died for your sins, and receive His forgiveness.
Some people regard this prerequisite for admittance as narrow-minded. Hanging a "For Believers Only" sign on a place as special as heaven seems unfair to them. God set up that limitation for a reason. All the way back in the Garden of Eden, He laid down a law to protect His creation: Do not disobey Me. The penalty for breaking that command is death.
Of course, we all violate the law because we are flawed human beings. In order to save people from the consequence of their wrongdoing, God sent His Son Jesus Christ to shoulder all of our sin and die in our place. Our Savior fulfilled the law while taking our punishment. The good news is that He did not remain in the grave--Christ arose victoriously after three days!
God promised in His Word that those who receive Jesus Christ as Savior share in His resurrection. When a believer dies, the heavenly gate swings open, and he or she has the same triumph over death that Jesus did. This means that when we leave this world, we do not simply disappear into vapor. We continue serving the Lord in heaven.
Death is not the end. It's the moment we claim our ultimate victory over the lord of this world, Satan, by entering God's presence forever.
