1. Bible Topic
a) To learn what the Bible has to say on a variety of topics affecting our everyday lives, we may find what we are looking for here.
2. Death
a) I’m scared of death, what do I do? We need not be afraid if God is with us. It’s in the Bible, Psalm 23:4, NKJV. “Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.”
b) Jesus died to free us from death and the devil. It’s in the Bible, Hebrews 2:14-15, CEV. “We are people of flesh and blood. That is why Jesus became one of us. He died to destroy the devil, who had power over death. But he also died to rescue all of us who live each day in fear of dying.”
c) What happens when you die? The body turns to dust, and the breath of life goes back to God. It’s in the Bible, Ecclesiastes 12:7, CEV. "So our bodies return to the earth, and the life-giving breath returns to God."
d) Where do you go when you die? Do good people go to heaven after death? Not immediately, the Bible says that the dead are sleeping in the earth. It’s in the Bible, Acts 2:29, 34, NKJV. “Men and brethren, let me speak freely to you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his tomb is with us to this day…For David did not ascend into the heavens…”
e) What does it feel like to die? Jesus taught that death is like falling asleep. It’s in the Bible, John 11:11-14, NKJV. “These things He said, and after that He said to them, ‘Our friend Lazarus sleeps, but I go that I may wake him up.’ Then His disciples said, ‘Lord, if he sleeps he will get well.’ However, Jesus spoke of his death, but they thought that He was speaking about taking rest in sleep. Then Jesus said to them plainly, ‘Lazarus is dead.’”
