The sting of death is sin . . . . But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. —1 Cor. 15:56-57

 The famous theologian Augustine (354–430) penned The City of God in the midst of this calamity. Even though his thoughts are more than 15 centuries old, they are still relevant today. 

Death is a servant who leads us into the presence of a loving Lord for those who put their faith in Jesus Christ, not a sheriff hauling us off to court. The apostle Paul recognised this because he viewed life and death from the viewpoint of Christ. He could confidently exclaim, "Death is swallowed up in victory" (1 Cor. 15:54) because he knew where death would lead him. 

The same boldness should be displayed by every Christian. 

We who put our faith in Jesus Christ can view death as a comma that precedes a blissful eternity with our Lord rather than a period because of His death and resurrection.
