Death: friend or enemy?
Today the media report on suicide with some frequency. Whether these are cases of "assisted suicide" or the result of some other unhappy situation, the individuals involved clearly felt that death was the only solution. But there is another way, one pointed out to us by Christ Jesus.
"The Bible calls death an enemy, and Jesus overcame death and the grave instead of yielding to them," Science and Health says. It continues further on, "To him, therefore, death was not the threshold over which he must pass into living glory" (p. 39).
