Life is forever

Lyle R. Young

If a friend or relative has passed on, is there a way to overcome sadness? Christian Science answers with a very strong "yes!" It shows that as we understand Christ Jesus' teaching that Life is eternal, we trade sadness for a deep joy of which nothing can rob us.

In Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, Mary Baker Eddy states, "God, Life, Truth, and Love make man undying" (p. 427). And a passage from Psalms tells us, "O bless our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard: which holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved" (66:8, 9).
