Death Can’t Stop …

 I tell you the truth, a time is coming and has now come when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God and those who hear will live. — John 5:25

Aren't you glad that not even death can stop us from hearing Jesus' promised words to us: "RISE!"? We will hear his voice and live with him forever. That sure puts a lift in my future plans; what about you?

Divine Certainties 

. Penury of the Sinner

1 Timothy 6:7

For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it.

Job 21:13

They spend their years in prosperity 

 and go down to the grave  in peace.

. Judgment of the Sinner

Hebrews 10:26—31

If we deliberately keep on sinning  after we have received the knowledge of the truth,  no sacrifice for sins is left,   but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire  that will consume the enemies of God.   Anyone who rejected the law of Moses died without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses.    How much more severely do you think someone deserves to be punished who has trampled the Son of God  underfoot,  who has treated as an unholy thing the blood of the covenant  that sanctified them,  and who has insulted the Spirit  of grace?    For we know him who said, “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,”  and again, “The Lord will judge his people.”    It is a dreadful thing  to fall into the hands  of the living God.

Saved

. By God – The Source

2 Timothy 1:8-9

So do not be ashamed  of the testimony about our Lord or of me his prisoner.  Rather, join with me in suffering for the gospel,  by the power of God.   He has saved  us and called  us to a holy life—not because of anything we have done  but because of his own purpose and grace. This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time,
