What does the Bible say about death and resurrection?
Answered in 5 sources
The Bible teaches that death is a consequence of sin, but through Christ, believers have the hope of resurrection and eternal life.
The Bible presents death as a direct result of sin, affirming that 'the body is dead because of sin' (Romans 8:10). Yet, it does not leave believers in despair; instead, it offers the glorious promise of resurrection. 1 Corinthians 15:53 tells us, 'this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality,' emphasizing that, for those in Christ, death is not the end but a transition to eternal life. This profound truth transforms our understanding of mortality, sorrow, and hope in the face of death.
