Why Believe in God?

Reason #39

Christians do not fear death.

Do not be amazed at this, for a time is coming when all who are in their graves will hear his voice and come out - those who have done good will rise to live, and those who have done evil will rise to be condemned.

- John 5:28,29 (NIV)

 

Mankind’s greatest shared fear is that of death. But one of the most powerful arguments for Christianity is the many, many passages in the Bible that speak to this fear and provide a way to escape the fear of death and even death itself. Christ in his own words says we can live again after the death of the body and that we will gain a body that will never die. We do not have to die. We have a choice.
