This corruptible must put on the incorruption.
-- 1 Cor. XV, 53.
Our Saviour, Jesus Christ, hath abolished
death and brought life and immortality
to light.
I am the resurrection and the life; he that
believeth in me, though he were dead,
yet shall he live. -- John xi:25
Behold He is coming in the clouds, and every
eye shall see Him. -- Rev. I:7.
When Christ our life shall appear, then shall
ye also appear with Him in glory. -- Col. III:4.
Where is thy sting, O Death? Where is thy victory,
O Grave? Thanks to God, who giveth us the
victory, through our Lord Jesus Christ -- 1 Cor. XV:55, 57.

Vain distinctions all are blended,
