Why is the death of believers considered a blessing?

Answered in 1 source

Believers' deaths are blessed because they die 'in the Lord,' gaining eternal life rather than facing eternal separation from God.

The death of believers is considered a blessing because Scripture states, 'Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord' (Revelation 14:13). This blessing reflects the idea that death leads the believer into the fullness of life with Christ, rather than a penalty as for the unbeliever. For those who are united with Christ in faith, death signifies the culmination of their earthly struggles and the beginning of an eternal existence in the presence of the Lord, free from pain, suffering, and sin.
