Lamento mucho la perdida de su familiar.
¡Parece tan injusto que la muerte tenga el poder de arrebatarnos a un ser querido! Y cuando sucede, la idea de que nunca más podremos hablar y reír con él ni abrazarlo, puede resultar casi insoportable. Ese dolor no desaparece necesariamente porque nos digan que la persona querida está en el cielo.
No obstante, la Biblia da una esperanza muy diferente. En Hechos 24:15 las Escrituras muestran que en un futuro cercano será posible volver a estar junto a los seres queridos que han muerto, puesto que dice que "va a haber resurrección", pero no en un cielo desconocido, sino aquí mismo en la Tierra, en condiciones pacíficas y justas. Y en aquel entonces los seres humanos podrán disfrutar de salud perfecta, y nunca tendrán que volver a morir.
