Luke 21:16-18 (KJV)
And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death.And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake.But there shall not an hair of your head perish.
And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death.And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake.But there shall not an hair of your head perish.
Jesus said some would die but none would perish.
There is a clear doctrine of life after death and of judgment after death in this passage.
Death is not to be feared most.No question that death is an enemy. None of us look forward to it, though some surrender to it before it is due and some even defect to its side and take their own lives.
But death is not the great enemy and death is not that which we must avoid at all costs.
Perishing is to be feared and avoidedThe great thing is that, though it is appointed unto man once to die, God is not willing that any should perish. None of us can avoid eventually dying but all of us can avoid ever perishing eternally.
