The Bible shows that death was not the inevitable fate of man. The Bible says that death became part of man's life system when he rebelled against God and his nature became corrupt and depraved. Death is the punishment for sin. Wasn't it a natural thing for man? Rather, it is a manifestation of God's wrath and judgement, and a sign of man's condemnation and curse. A question has been asked: If death is the result of sin, why do believers in Christ, who have been washed by His blood, also die? Since all nature has become corrupt, the body of believers is also considered a part of this nature and is still subject to the rule of physical death; but their souls have been redeemed and their bodies will return to life in a glorious way on the Day of Judgement. Death and dying separate our loved ones from us for various reasons, and we all consider it a part of life; but this life itself becomes bitter and sorrowful to us because we are not comforted by their grief! Jacob mourned for his son Joseph for many years after hearing the false news. One of the great resources you can turn to when you feel depressed and sad is the Bible. It is full of reassuring and comforting reminders that God wants to comfort us in difficult times of life and that we should read His gospel, which is salvation and life.
