Death

Jesus said, “First things first. Your business is life, not
death. Follow me. Pursue life.”—Matthew 8:22

When it’s sin versus grace, grace wins hands down. All
sin can do is threaten us with death, and that’s the end
of it. Grace, because God is putting everything together
again through the Messiah, invites us into life—a life
that goes on and on and on, world without end.
Romans 5:20-21

What we believe is this: If we get included in Christ’s
sin-conquering death, we also get included in his
life-saving resurrection. We know that when Jesus
was raised from the dead it was a signal of the end of
death-as-the-end. Never again will death have the last
word.—Romans 6:8-9

Work hard for sin your whole life and your pension is
death. But God’s gift is real life, eternal life, delivered by
Jesus, our Master.—Romans 6:23

I look death in the face practically every day I live. Do
you think I’d do this if I wasn’t convinced of your resurrection
and mine as guaranteed by the resurrected
Messiah Jesus?—1 Corinthians 15:31

Your old life is dead. Your new life, which is your
real life—even though invisible to spectators—is with
Christ in God. He is your life.—Colossians 3:3
