“If a man die, shall he live again?” asked the man Job long ago.” (Job 14:14, King James Version) Perhaps you too have wondered this. How would you feel if you knew you could have a reunion with your loved ones right here on earth under the best of conditions?
Well when Jesus was on earth he resurrected his dear friend Lazarus who had been dead for three days. (John 11:33,35).
There are nine miracles where dead ones were brought back to life on this earth recorded for us. These accounts teach us much about the resurrection to come. (John 5:28,29). People who were restored to life here on earth were reunited with there loved ones. The future resurrection will be similar-only much better. The whole earth will be made into a paradise. So the dead will not be raised to life in a world filled with war, crime and sickness. They will have an opportunity to live forever on this earth in peaceful and happy conditions under God’s heavenly government or Kingdom. (Psalm 37:9-ll,29; Matthew 6:10; Revelation 21:3,4)
To have confidence in such promises we need to answer some basic questions: Why do people die? Where are the dead? And how can we be sure they can live again? I would love to share these thoughts with you at no obligationn if you respond.
Sincerely,
Joyce Armold
