It’s not the First Death I’m afraid of, it’s the Second....................
we are buried with him by baptism into death...our old man is crucified with himRom 6:4, 6.
and we are resurrected with him.
he raised us from the dead along with ChristEph 2:6 (NIV)
Therefore, the second death has no power over us
This is the first resurrection. Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no powerRev 20:5-6.
if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away...2 Cor 5:17 (NKJV)
there [is] no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither [is] there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.Rev 21:4.
