1 Corinthians 15:54-55 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
[55] O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?
When believers die, the Bible teaches that their soul goes to heaven where it lives on forever.
God instantly changes us in preparation for Heaven.
We don’t have to fear dying. We claim victory over death.
I Won’t Have to Cross Jordan Along
____________________________
When I come to the river at ending of day, — When the last winds of sorrow have blown; — There'll be somebody waiting to show me the way; — I won't have to cross Jordan alone.
CHORUS:
I won't have to cross Jordan alone. — Jesus died all my sins to atone. — When the darkness I see, — He'll be waiting for me; — I won't have to cross Jordan alone.
Often times I'm forsaken and weary and sad; — When it seems that my friends have all gone. — There is one tho’t that cheers me and makes my heart glad. — I won't have to cross Jordan alone.
Though the billows of sorrow and trouble may sweep, — Christ the Savior will care for his own. — Till the end of the journey my soul he will keep, — I won't have to cross Jordan alone.
