How does Christ deliver us from the fear of death?

The sermon elaborates on how Christ, by His sacrificial death, has destroyed the power that death holds over humanity. This is rooted in the understanding that the devil has the power of death, which instills fear. However, through His victory over death, Christ provides His followers assurance of eternal life. This knowledge transforms our understanding of death, not as an end but as a passageway to eternal communion with God. Thus, we no longer need to fear death, as it has lost its sting through Christ’s redemptive work.
