Heaven
Part V
the former things are passed away
No more death

and there shall be no more death,
Revelation 21:4b

Death is separation and separation seems like death!

Death never means 'annihilation / no more existence!
Everyone else "dies" except ourselves!
We go on into eternity!

Four Applications of Death in Bible terms.

Physical Death Eternal Second Death Death to our Flesh Spiritual Death One more 'death.'
Death to the world - including our 'friends' if they don't follow Paul!
I Thessalonians 3:14,15 - And if any man obey not our word by this epistle, note that man, and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed. Yet count him not as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother.

They separated from God's people in the Gospels time - Luke 6:22.
Today, we are to separate ourselves from them and their worldly ways according to Paul - II Corinthians 6:17


Still coming: an increase of turbulent seas regarding deaths:
Separation anxiety
Fear of loneliness
Loneliness itself
Increase in ungodliness
More abuse of our liberty in Christ

Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
II Timothy 3:12

Have we settled on our lees?

Are we camping in the wrong creeks?
See the p.m. sermon of part II for being Separated UNTO God - How that is done today!
