The media elevates an entertainer’s sad death (eg Gordon Downie and so many others) but are unable to provide any explanation as to ‘why we die’, and/or true consolation!
In fact religious elements shamefully fail to provide the well explained reason for the cause of (natural) death in Scripture *, and/or even worse frequently misrepresent God’s future purpose for all mankind!
In fact God’s plan and ability to provide life after death is not only clearly explained in scripture, but there are numerous well documented cases of resurrection, the greatest of these being that of his son Jesus Christ!
Those grieving the loss of loved ones can read of these examples and find comfort from them. In fact there is abundant evidence a general resurrection ** NO NOT IN HEAVEN BUT RIGHT HERE ON OUR BEAUTIFUL PLANET EARTH! THAT is God’s future purpose for all those who humbly seek his approval, and, owing to his mercy, even those who do not! Extended future being determined by future, not past behavior!
*Matthew 5:12 “ That is why, just as through one man sin entered into the world and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because they had all sinned.
**Matthew 24:15,16: ” …..there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous. Because of this I always strive to maintain a clear conscience before God and men.”
