The pain of death is not just in the sickness or suffering that we might endure as death comes, but the fact that death is all about separation. Death is a separation, not cessation, of existence or consciousness. Death separates from life as we know it, and from our loved ones (James 2:26, 1 Thess 4:132-18), and for those who do not know Christ, death is everlasting separation from God (Luke 16:19-31).
I feel the sting of death every time I conduct a funeral, and stand with a weeping family by the graveside. Death is a terrible thing. Death is our enemy. We are powerless against death, but what can Jesus do in the face of this terrible enemy? The story of Lazarus reveals Jesus as the One who has the power to give life.
