I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your loved one. The God of Comfort, Jehovah, has promised us that death will be done away with. Paul tells us at 1 Corinthians 15:26 that death is to be brought to nothing. He knew this because he had been taught by the one who had been raised from the dead, Jesus Christ. That is why Paul could also write: Since death is through a man (Adam), resurrection of the dead is also through a man (Jesus Christ). For just as in Adam all are dying, so also in the Christ all will be made alive.1 Corinthians 15:21, 22. The scriptures indicate that it is possible to be reunited with your dead loved one in the near future, not in an unknown heaven but right here on earth under peaceful, righteous conditions. And at that time humans will have the prospect of enjoying perfect health, and they will never have to die again. Jehovah God, who started mankind off in a lovely garden, has promised to restore Paradise on this earth under the rule of His heavenly Kingdom in the hands of the now glorified Jesus Christ. (Genesis 2:7-9; Matthew 6:10; Luke 23:42, 43) In that restored Paradise, the human family will have the prospect of enjoying life without end, free from all sickness and disease. (Revelation 21:1-4; Isaiah 35:5-7.) Gone, too will be all hatred, racial prejudice, ethnic violence, and economic oppression. It will be into such a cleansed earth that Jehovah God through Jesus Christ will resurrect the dead. If your heart similarly yearns to see a loved one again, please contact me to see how you can make this sure hope your very own. Rubrumlily1981@gmail.com
