VEHEMENT ATTACK ON DEATH






Jesus left us an example to raise the dead; “Now when He had said these things, He cried with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come forth! And he who had died came out bound hand and foot with grave clothes, and his face was wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, "Loose him, and let him go. Then many of the Jews who had come to Mary, and had seen the things Jesus did, believed in Him.” (Jn 11:43-45)
  
“Then He came to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and saw a tumult and those who wept and wailed loudly. When He came in, He said to them, "Why make this commotion and weep? The child is not dead, but sleeping."  And they ridiculed Him. But when He had put them all outside, He took the father and the mother of the child, and those who were with Him, and entered where the child was lying.”

“Then He took the child by the hand, and said to her, "Talitha, cumi," which is translated, "Little girl, I say to you, arise." Immediately the girl arose and walked, for she was twelve years of age. And they were overcome with great amazement. But He commanded them strictly that no one should know it, and said that something should be given her to eat.” (Mk 5:38-43)

Apostle Paul followed the footsteps of Jesus; “And in a window sat a certain young man named Eutychus, who was sinking into a deep sleep. He was overcome by sleep; and as Paul continued speaking, he fell down from the third story and was taken up dead.”

“But Paul went down, fell on him, and embracing him said, "Do not trouble yourselves, for his life is in him. Now when he had come up, had broken bread and eaten, and talked a long while, even till daybreak, he departed. And they brought the young man in alive, and they were not a little comforted.” (Ac 20:8-12)

The church should put this truth into practice and stop the killing and burying of people who should have lived for the glory of God in Jesus’ Name...
