Christians Do Not Need To Be Afraid of Death

How do Christians feel about death?

21 Christ is everything that I live for. If I die, that will be even better for me.

Philippians 1:21 EasyEnglish Bible (EASY)

Not even death can separate Christians from the love of Jesus:

38-39 I am sure of this. Nothing can stop God from loving us. Death cannot do that. Life cannot do that. Angels cannot do that, nor can demons do that. Nothing that happens to us now, or that will happen in a future time can do that. No powerful spirits can do that. Nothing that is high above the world can do that, nor anything that is deep down below the ground. Nothing else in the whole universe can stop God from loving us. Because of our Lord Christ Jesus, we know how much God loves us.

Romans 8:38-39 EasyEnglish Bible (EASY)

Jesus has prepared a place for Christians with him in heaven:

Jesus is the way to the Father

1 Jesus said to his disciples, ‘Do not be sad or afraid. Believe in God, and also believe in me. 2 There are many rooms in my Father's house. I will go now so that I can prepare a place for you there. If it was not true, I would not have told you this. 3 After I have prepared a place for you, I will return. Then I will take you so that you will be with me. You will be where I am. 4 You know the way to the place where I will go.’

John 14:1-4 EasyEnglish Bible (EASY)
