Synopsis

This book is a sermon on the nature of death in the Christian faith. The author argues that death is not to be feared by those who have lived a good life in accordance with God's will and have sought to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ. The author draws on biblical passages to support these arguments, including the well-known verse from Revelation 14:13, "And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them." The author also discusses the nature of heaven and hell, arguing that those who have lived a good life will be rewarded with eternal happiness in heaven, while those who have lived a wicked life will be punished with eternal suffering in hell. The author's aim is to provide comfort and reassurance to those who are grieving the loss of a loved one, and to encourage them to live a good life so that they may be assured of a place in heaven.
