Facing Death In Christ

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Nov 11, 2021

Why do many Christians fear death? Of course the act itself can be horrifying (such as crucifixion ...). But many fear death no matter what the cause. Should this be normal for followers of Jesus? What do we see in the Bible? How does that compare to what we feel?

Florida was blessed, because it came up to the coast line and made a turn. When South Carolina was told to “Watch out”, because the storm was heading in their direction, ...read more
