The Gate of Life

If we are true believers in Christ — then dying is but leaving darkness and sin and danger — to pass into light and holiness and safety.

A poet represents one coming up to a gate on a mountain-side, over which were written the words, "The Gate of Death"; but when he touched the gate it opened, and he found himself amid great brightness and beauty.

Then, turning about, he saw above the gate he had entered the words, " The Gate of Life ."

Just so, if we are in Christ, death is abolished, and what men call the point of death, is really the point of life.

We need then to make sure of only one thing — that we are truly Christ's by living faith and loving obedience.
