Summary

Ecclesiastes tells us that, “The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning…” In other words, wise people ponder death and sorrow often. We do not do this in a masochistic sense, we do this as a way to keep our mortality front and center. When a person avoids the discussion of death they also avoid the discussion of judgment and eternity. As you can see, this denial produces difficult soil for the Gospel. By God’s grace, death, for the Christian has lost its sting. But all that said, we still have a desire to understand what’s coming after death. Do we go immediately to Christ or wait in a state of spiritual sleep? In this episode, pastor Dale Partridge unpacks what the Bible says regarding the process of death and eternity.
