                                                                                     Never Separated from God

"whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?"

                                                                                 ~ John 11:26

  "Yes, Lord, we believe it; we shall never die. Our soul may be separated from our body, but our soul shall never be separated from God, which is the true death. We believe this most assuredly, for who shall separate us from the love of God? We are members of the Body of Christ; will Christ lose parts of His body? We are married to Jesus; will He be bereaved and widowed? It is not possible.

  There is a life within us that is not capable of being divided from God. The Holy Spirit dwells within us, and how then can we die? The reward of righteousness is life everlasting; therefore we can claim the very highest reward. Living and believing, we believe that we shall live and enjoy. Therefore we press forward with full assurance that our life is secure in our living Head."
