This is a Max Locato.

God's view and our view of death tend to be different.

We see death as the end.

God sees it as a beginning.

From God's viewpoint, death is not permanent. It is a necessary step for passing from this world to the next.

From God's perspective, death is a small price to pay for the privilege of sitting at his table.

The scripture says,

Flesh and blood cannot have a part in the kingdom of God.

This body that can be destroyed must clothe itself with something that can never be destroyed.

1st Corinthians 15 versus 50 and 53.

In other words, we must die for our body to be exchanged for a new one.

So from God's viewpoint, death is not to be dreaded, is to be welcomed. This is Max Locato.
