When Believers Die

”But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.” | 1 Thessalonians 4: 13

Our Lord calls our death in Him “sleep.”

We are not afraid to fall asleep. Sleep is comfort, rest, health and peace.

The full realization of all of these for the believer, is experienced when this body lays down and we rise incorruptible like our Master and Savior.

A Believer Is A Mystery

“And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.” | 1 Timothy 3: 16

The believer is a mystery to others and to himself also.

He is sanctified yet feels himself to be the chief of sinners.

He loves God’s law and will, yet he wrestles with an inward desire to have his own way.

He has great sorrow and heaviness of heart for many reasons, yet he rejoices in the Lord always.

His spirit longs to depart and be with Christ, yet his flesh clings to this earth.

He knows that he is secure in Christ, yet he examines his faith continually.

Absolute Control, Absolute Comfort

”Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God. For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ.” | 2 Corinthians 1: 3-5

God does not comfort us in our sorrow to make us feel comfortable, but “…that we may be able to comfort them which are in trouble, by the same comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.” (2 Corinthians 1: 4)
