In the scriptures death is clearly explained. Furthermore the Bible not only reveals why we die but also explain the condition of the dead and offers hope for our deceased loved ones .Finally , it speaks of a momentous time when it will be possible to report " Death is swallowed up forever " 1Corinthians 15:54 .......................I am sorry about your loss.
