Dead people

Bible sayings on the situation and place for the dead

Marcus Ampe8 Comments

In later writings we shall come to discuss how the Nazarene Jew gave his life for mankind and made it that though most people shall die they, those who accept his position and have done in their life that what God expects from them, shall have a hope for the future.

In the mean time when we do live we should not fear man nor death, because it is a place where all shall land up, not being able to take any wordy treasures with them, or to do something to others.

Let us look forwards to be worthy to receive the free gift of the Most High.
