Fear of death

12:28 In the way of righteousness [is] life; and [in] the pathway [thereof there is] no death.
Proverbs 12:28 KJV

Death is a friend of ours; and he that is not ready to entertain him is not at home.
Sir Francis Bacon (1561 - 1626)

LAB comments:For many, death is a darkened door at the end of life, a passageway to an unknown and feared destiny. But for those who know God, death is a bright pathway to a new and better life. So why do we fear death? Is it because of the pain we expect, the separation from loved ones, its surprise? God can help us to deal with those fears. He has shown us that death is not final, but just another step in the eternal life we received when we followed Him.
