The path that no one can avoid is death. The cause of death is sin.

The path that humans cannot avoid is…🤔
Death.
The cause of death is sin.
Those who sin and commit sins…will inevitably die.
…
Death is…😨
There is nothing humans can do about it.
Humans are powerless against death.
That's why
We all fear death, and try not to think about it as much as possible.
But Jesus was outraged by death head-on.
Jesus is…the one who overcomes death, which plunges people into despair and deep sorrow❗️.
…
"Lazarus, come out❗️"
…
Then…Lazarus came out, “his hands and feet still wrapped in long cloths.
His face was wrapped in cloth.” ✳️Verse 44.
Four days after his death, when decomposition had begun,
Lazarus rose again from the tomb, just as he had been buried.

Through the miracle of Lazarus' resurrection, Jesus proved that He is "the one who can overcome death, the one who gives life!"

Furthermore, Jesus said, "I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die."

... "Death has been swallowed up in victory!"
For those who sincerely believe in Jesus Christ, they no longer fear death and will walk toward heaven.

Shalom 😄
