How do we know that death is better than birth for Christians?

Ecclesiastes 7:1-3 teaches that the day of death is better than the day of birth because it marks the end of the struggles associated with this earthly life, especially for believers. Upon death, believers enter into eternal joy free from sin, sorrow, and the temptations that plague life on earth. This perspective is rooted in the understanding that life begins in sin, as stated in Psalm 51:5, but death for the believer ushers in an existence unmarred by sin. The moment we close our eyes in death, faith gives way to sight, and we are taken into the glorious presence of the Lord, which indeed is better than any day we experienced on earth.
