Death, The Christian, and Healing

Death is not the death of the man--but the death of his sin. When a believer dies--his sin dies with him.
As death came in by sin--so sin goes out by death.

The Persians had a certain day in the year wherein they killed all serpents and venomous creatures. Such a day as that, will the day of death be to every believer.
All his serpentine and venomous sins will be forever destroyed! Then he shall never again . . .
be proud,
nor passionate,
nor unbelieving,
nor worldly,
nor neglectful of duty,
nor grieve the Holy Spirit,
nor wound his conscience,
nor break peace with God!

When death takes away a godly man, it takes him away from his sins! And as death rids the believer of all his sins--so it will rid him of all his sorrows. Death cures all diseases, the aching head and the unbelieving heart. --Thomas Brooks
