This week’s sermon for March 22, comes for the Gospel of John 11:1-16
As a lesson of “Raising our Faith, to see the glory of God,” there is a true story from a sermon by a Scottish American Presbyterian preacher and pastor, best known as Chaplain of the U.S. Senate, named Peter Marshall, about a 12-year-old boy who knew he was dying. The boy asked his father, “What is it like to die?” His father replied, “Son, do you remember when you were little, how you used to sit on my lap in the big chair in the living room? I would tell you a story, read you a book, or sing you a song. Then you would fall asleep in my arms, and when you woke up, you’d be in your own bed. That is what death is.” When you wake, you are not where you were. You are in a place of security, safety, beauty, and rest. That is what Jesus declares death to be. In 1 Thessalonians 4:14, we read, “Them that sleep in Jesus will Christ bring with him when he comes.”
