¡Death Is Gain¡

Hello to all the esteemed community of steemit.

Approximately in the year 54 AD the Apostle Paul being in prison awaiting his death sentence without any comfort decides to send a letter to the brothers of Philippi where he mentions that famous phrase in Philippians 1:21:

Death Is Gain

Now, what reason would the apostle Paul have to declare that death is gain, if for the common people everything culminates with death, what hope can there be in a man condemned to the guillotine, or is it that Paul saw his death? as a step to true life? However, the paradox of this story is that in spite of the circumstance in which the apostle found he was leaving because he was convinced that it was much better, then, what was the profit that he contemplated.
.

Because for most people death ends with everything, there is no more hope, I will never see my loved one again, but the bible tells us about it .

I. The person will enjoy the presence of the Lord for eternity according to Philippians 1:21.

And be with Christ who is so much better.

II. It would be esteemed by God according to Psalm 116: 15

Dear in the eyes of the Lord, the death of his saints.

III.He would receive an incorruptible body, which will not suffer or become ill, nor suffer any kind of damage in relation to I Corinthians 15.

And the dead will be resurrected incorruptible with transformed bodies.

IV. They will rest from their jobs and enjoy the peace of the Lord, my peace or I leave my peace I give you, not as the world gives it in relation to Revelation 14:13.

Blessed are the dead in the Lord from now on. they will be given rest from their fatigues.

Finally, we must keep our eyes on the Author and giver of eternal life (Christ) because apart from him we can do nothing, because if we contemplate Jesus he is a balm for our wounds, if we meditate on the Father he will give us rest in the affliction and the influence of his spirit will give us comfort in the anguish and vicissitudes of this life as the apostle said we are not like those who have no hope based on I Thessalonians 4:13, understanding that all those who love God all things help you we.
.

I pray to God that he was a Blessing for his life and growth in the faith. Peace and Grace of God Above all who read this message
