[Rev. Albert Gonser, in the Bay View Press, Milwaukee, Wisconsin]

Perhaps no question has been asked so persistently by man as the one, "If a man die, shall he live again?" What happens after death? What is the future life like? As the years go on, as old friends, relatives, members of our families pass on into the unknown, these questions grow more acute. We long for a word from those we loved, but their lips are stilled. No wonder that age-old question is pondered again and again!

The only real and satisfying answer that has ever been given us is that of Jesus: "Because I live, ye shall live also." That is the Easter message. It is so dear to our hearts because of the assurance of life after death. Jesus' simple but definite answer fills our hearts with radiant joy, transforms our lives, awakens our lagging spirits, and inspires us to finer and nobler living.
