Isaiah 25:8
He will swallow up death forever. The Sovereign Lord will wipe away the tears from all faces; he will remove his people’s disgrace from all the earth. The Lord has spoken.
The most painful aspect of human life is death. To be severed from loved ones can be unbearable. Jesus has conquered death. Therefore through Him, there is hope beyond the grave.
He proved this when He raised Lazarus from the dead, and when He assured the thief on the cross that he'll join Him in paradise - Luke 23:43. There were more confirmations after Jesus died on the cross : Matthew 27:51-53 NIV
At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook, the rocks split and the tombs broke open. The bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life. They came out of the tombs after Jesus’ resurrection and went into the holy city and appeared to many people.
Jesus has assured all who believe in Him of everlasting life. This is our hope! John 11:25 Jesus told her, "I am the resurrection and the life. Anyone who believes in me will live, even after dying.
