The hope needed
Has anyone ever defeated death? If so, did he make a way for us to do so, also?

The hope needed...when loss looms...
(Jesus said) “I am the resurrection and the life . . . Do you believe this?” This is a . . . question which makes sense only during an all-night vigil or in the stillness of (a) waiting room. A question that makes sense when all of our props . . . and costumes are taken away. For then we must face ourselves as we really are: rudderless humans tail-spinning toward disaster. And we are forced to see Him for what He claims to be: our only hope.

The hope needed...when loss looms...is based on this happening
Jesus, having once experienced death and having triumphed over it, would never die again. He was raised immortal – alive from the dead – and He still lives today.
