A Book for the Bereaved
by John MacDuff, 1883

We believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will take back with Jesus those who have died BELIEVING in Him.

“He will wipe all tears from their eyes—and there will be no more death, suffering, crying, or pain! These things of the past are gone forever! He who OVERCOMES will inherit all this, and I will be his God and he will be my son.” Revelation 21:4, 7
