Why is the day of death better than the day of birth for believers?

In Ecclesiastes 7:1-2, Solomon posits that the day of death is better than the day of birth because it marks the end of earthly struggles and the beginning of eternal life with Christ. For those who are in Christ, death is not an end but a transition to a state of bliss and unity with God, free from sin and sorrow. The Apostle John supports this notion in Revelation 14:13, stating that those who die in the Lord are blessed. Thus, while birth often celebrates life beginning, it is through death that believers are ushered into the fullness of life promised in Christ.
