26. Death and Resurrection

26. Death and Resurrection

The wages of sin is death. But God, who alone is immortal, will grant

eternal life to His redeemed. Until that day death is an unconscious state

for all people. When Christ, who is our life, appears, the resurrected

righteous and the living righteous will be glorified and caught up to meet

their Lord. The second resurrection, the resurrection of the unrighteous,

will take place a thousand years later. (Job 19:25-27; Ps 146:3, 4; Eccl 9:5,

6, 10; Dan 12:2, 13; Isa 25:8; John 5:28, 29; 11:11-14; Rom 6:23; 1 Cor

15:51-54; Col 3:4; 1 Thess 4:13-17; 1 Tim 6:15, 16; Rev 20:1-10.)
