… He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die. John 11:25,26 (at the raising of Lazarus)

A paradox, or not?
King Jesus came to give the life
in him, which if you’ve got
gives taste now of eternity,
and lasts beyond this body’s death –
and then reclothed for immortality –
rich life lived in the ever glorious
new creation’s heaven and earth.

Thanks, Bee, glad you thought so. No. 7 in the little series was slow maturing, but it seemed appropriate for being finalised, and put up now. Rhiannon

Much to think about, here
