The Eternity We Seek
“The best moment of the Christian’s life is his last one, because it is the one that is nearest heaven.” (Spurgeon)
Jesus changed the meaning of death for those who follow him. Death is no longer the wages of sin.

4 Reasons We Should Be Glad God Doesn’t Change His Mind
God will not go back on his word.
