“For to Me to Live Is Christ” — Part One

 (ID: 0511)

For many, death is fearful and unpleasant to talk about. As Alistair Begg reminds us, though, thinking about death is necessary, because everyone, without exception, will face it. Yet the topic of death can be more hopeful for Christians, since Jesus conquered death and made it possible for us to overcome it as well. The only requirement is a personal relationship with Christ, which brings life that no religious heritage or family bloodline can provide.


21For to me mto live is Christ, and to die is gain.
