Reflect on death as in Jesus Christ, not as without Jesus Christ. Without Jesus Christ it is dreadful, it is alarming, it is the terror of nature. In Jesus Christ it is fair and lovely, it is good and holy, it is the joy of the saints. Blaise Pascal Commentary: Jesus Christ conquered death for us! He stepped into the grave and then stepped out of the grave for us! The last enemy of men was defeated! He did it for us! For those that step into death with Christ will be raised from the dead with Christ! He will never leave us nor forsake us! This is why as proclaimed in Psalms 116:15, precious is the death of the saints in the sight of the Lord! He loves to save his people! That is why God came to earth in Jesus Christ! His Son to be a sacrifice for our sin! O’ death where is thy sting? O’ grave where is thy victory? Only God creator of all things can have power over our enemies to deliver us from them! We can forgive our enemies because they have no power over our future in Christ and God has forgiven us who were once enemies of the Cross! Our victory came at a great cost yet he did it for us as undeserving as we are! Grace is God doing for us what we cannot do for ourselves! James & Hamsa Sasse. WhoisGod.in
