"I have been to the Ziggurat of Ur where nearby is the tomb of the ancient queen who ruled before 2000 B.C. Buried with her were her servants and jewels in expectation of a future life. In ancient Egypt, the dead were buried in a fetal position, expecting a resurrection. The pyramids of Egypt were built by the pharaohs as gateways to the heavens and a life beyond."

"I have been to the Ming Tombs and the Ching Tombs of China, to Karnak, the most extensive network of tombs in the world. I have seen the bodies of Lenin and Mao Tse Tung, lying in vaccum glass coffins; Flanders Field where the fallen of World War One were buried; Arlington Cememtery, dotted with thousands of crosses, and witnessed the amazing changing of the guard."

"I have stood upon the Mount of Olives and beheld the tombs of the prophets and the thousands of tombs and graves that cover the western slope, down through the Garden of Gethsemane, through the Kidron Valley, up to the Golden Gate. The Bible promises that when the Messiah stands upon this mountain, the dead will rise up out of these graves and tombs in a resurrected body. All these graves and tombs testify to man's belief in millenniums past that there is life beyond the grave."

In this book, we present the promise of resurrection for mankind in the risen Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. The message from Genesis to Revelation is that because Jesus Christ lives, we shall live also. This is the central theme of the Bible. Without it, we are of all men on earth most miserable.
