Hope for our dead love ones!!

My parents and my other relatives grieved when my grand mother died and buried last month. I saw a lot of tears falling from their eyes during the burial most especially my step grandfather. He almost drowned emotionally because of grieving and too much mourning.

I grieved too but I am happy and relieved to know about the Bible word of God tells about the hope of our dead love ones. We’re they and what are their hopes in the near future. The Bible tells us that God views the dead as just resting and sleeping. He said that he will wake and resurrect the dead in the future. “Do not marvel at this, because the hours are coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out, those who did good things to a resurrection of life, those who practiced vile things to a resurrection of judgment (John 5:28,29). Jesus set a good assurance and example when he was resurrected by his beloved father Jehovah God. He was raised up from dead after resting or sleeping on his tomb for 3 days.

(1 Corinthians 15:20-22). What a refreshing promised right? Jesus resurrected some dead people when he was on earth to show that he can really resurrect the dead and fulfill his promised. It is recorded in John chapter 11:11-14 and 39-44 one account how Jesus perform miracle by raising his friend Lazaro from dead.

Reincarnation is different from what the Bible teaches and promised. The Bible doesn’t teach about reincarnation or the rebirth of ones soul in to another creature, like animals etc. or even human being.
