FEAR OF DEATH


There was an old man in the hospital who was dying. The family was called to the hospital for the final hours.

The family doctor was called to examine the old gentleman and give him his prognosis.

Not one member of the family was willing to tell the old gentleman that he had only a short while to live, but they did ask if he had a final request.

In a whisper the old fellow answered, "Yes, get me another doctor."

“As men are not able to fight against death, misery, ignorance, they have taken it into their heads, in order to be happy, not to think of them at all.” - Blaise Pascal.

But Ecc 7:4 (GNB) says: “Someone who is always thinking about happiness is a fool. A wise person thinks about death.”

“Death may be the king of terrors... but Jesus is the King of kings!” - D.L. Moody.

Heb 2:14-15 (CEV): “We are people of flesh and blood. That is why Jesus became one of us. He died to destroy the devil, who had power over death. But he also died to rescue all of us who live each day in fear of dying.”

“Take your stand on the Rock of Ages. Let death, let the judgment come: the victory is Christ's and yours through Him.” - D.L. Moody.
