"Where, O death, is your victory?

Where, O death, is your sting?”

1 Cor. 15:55

God is outside of time and therefore sees it all from a vantage point none of us ever will. Jesus has gone 

through death, separation with God, what we would have had to go through but because he rose from 

the dead we have his spirit to be there with us in the end... in death. Jesus death was dreaded because 

he had a horrible thing before him~ we can be filled with him who had already taken on the wrath of God, 

our sin, Hell... we can be confident in death as our soul sheds this earthly clothing for a heavenly one 

that he will be with us, showing us the way as he can / does here on earth. Death should not be a 

dreaded word among Christians, it is a passage to your true self, your true home, where you will see him 

with unveiled eyes, where you will be greeted as a precious child of the most High... "For now we see 

only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, 

even as I am fully known." 1 Cor. 13:12

My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to 

prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with 

me that you also may be where I am. 4 You know the way to the place where I am going.” Thomas said 

to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?”Jesus answered, “I am 

the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you really know me, 

you will know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.” John 14:2-7
