"Therefore Comfort One Another With These Words!"

It would make us sleep more 

quietly, and die more comfortably!

(Thomas Manton)

A man goes to bed willingly and cheerfully--

because he knows he shall rise again the next 

morning, and be renewed in his strength.

Just so, confidence in the resurrection 

would make us go to the grave, as 

cheerfully as we go to our beds! 

It would make us sleep more 

quietly, and die more comfortably!

"So will it be with the resurrection 
of the dead.  The body that is 
sown is perishable--
it is raised imperishable; 
 it is sown in dishonor--
it is raised in glory; 
 it is sown in weakness--
it is raised in power; 
 it is sown a natural body--
it is raised a spiritual body.
  1 Corinthians 15:42-44

"Therefore comfort one another with 
these words!" 1 Thessalonians 4:18
