In living there is death, In death there is living; How can death be proud? It has no power to conquer! We will someday be in what may be readily accepted as death; yet, there are times when the eve perceiveth incorrectly; for Jesus lives - BECAUSE HE LIVES we have inherited the right and privilege to life eternally with Him.
