In this sermon Tim considers the reality of death, the certainty of Christ’s return, and the hope of resurrection that transforms how we live today. We see that while death is an enemy we all face, it is not the end for those in Christ. Paul’s words remind us that Jesus died and rose again, and so will all who belong to Him, leading to a joyful reunion and eternal life in His presence. This hope allows us to grieve honestly yet with confidence, encouraging one another until the day He comes again.
