Revelation 1:5 ‘the first-born from the dead’…

Romans 5:21 ‘So grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord’.
We need have no fear of death, for our Lord
has opened the door to eternal life…
His crucified body was laid in the tomb but death could not hold him. The stone was rolled away and Jesus stepped out into the light.
1 Corinthians 15:55 ‘Where, O death is your victory? Where O death is your sting?
We are promised that even though we might face persecution, that if we are faithful to Christ Jesus then we will be blessed.
Revelation 2:10a ‘Be faithful, even to the point of death and I will give you the crown of life.’
