The Heaven Answer Book

disciples, who had once feared death on the Sea of Galilee, crisscrossed the world proclaiming that death had been swallowed up in victory because of Christ’s resurrection. Why live in a sea of despair when you can live know ing that, after death, life can be experienced as it was originally intended—in fellowship with our Creator and our Lord? This is the confidence that Christians possess. Death marks the beginning of a new and wonderful life in Heaven with Christ that will last forever. To the believer, death is merely the gateway to eternal life, where “under neath are the everlasting arms” (Deuteronomy 33:27).
