How Unbelievers Die Death is a blessed and glorious event for the true believer in the Lord Jesus Christ, the most wonderful experience that can ever come to a child of God.

Actually, for those who are in the Lord, death is but the gateway to life, a stepping-stone to Glory. To the unbeliever death is a terrible thing. Sir Thomas Scott, on his deathbed, said, "Until this moment I thought there was neither a God nor a Hell. Now I know and feel that there are both, and I am doomed to perdition by the just judgment of the Almighty." M. F.
