A Biblical Perspective on Death

I've been receiving a weekly email from Christian History.  The newest issue has an article that caught my attention, being on the same topic that I posted earlier this week--life after death.  This particular article features part of a Puritan funeral sermon from 1651 titled, A Believer's Last Day, His Best Day.  It's a great article.  I'll share a paragraph in hopes it will inspire you to read the rest.

"Death is another Moses: it delivers believers out of bondage, and from making bricks in Egypt. It is a day or year of jubilee to a gracious spirit—the year wherein he goes out free from all those cruel taskmasters which it had long groaned under..."

Here's the link to the rest of the article.

ChristianHistory.net is a publication of Christianity Today.  If you enjoy history this is a great site.  You can browse through different eras of Christian history.  There's even a section called This Week in Christian History.  

Grace and peace,
