Apocalipsis 21:3,4 Nang magkagayon ay narinig ko ang isang malakas na tinig mula sa trono na nagsasabi: Narito! Ang tolda+ ng Diyos ay nasa sangkatauhan, at tatahan+ siyang kasama nila, at sila ay magiging kaniyang mga bayan.+ At ang Diyos mismo ay sasakanila. At papahirin niya ang bawat luha+ sa kanilang mga mata, at hindi na magkakaroon ng kamatayan,+ ni ng pagdadalamhati o ng paghiyaw o ng kirot pa man.+ Ang mga dating bagay ay lumipas na.+

I am deeply saddened by the pain and anguish this tragedy brings upon the family members and friends of these victims. Even Jesus was sad when his friend Lazarus died. You can rest assured that Jesus has not only the power but also the desire to reunite us with our loved ones. (John 11:38-44) Please accept my heartfelt condolences for your loss!

To lose a father, mother, son and daughter in death leaves a void in our lives. The original purpose for mankind was to live forever under perfect conditions. (Genesis 2:7) Death will stop permanently taking the lives of our love ones.
