What hope can we have for the dead?

  1

Job 14:14-15

I would wait all the time I had to serve
till my relief came;
15 You would call and I would answer you;
you would have a yearning for the work of your hands.

John 5:28-29
Do not wonder at this, because there is a moment coming
at which all in the tombs will hear his voice
29 and pass out, those who have done what was good
to resurrection of life,
those who have misbehaved to resurrection of judgment.

  3

he who believes in me shall live even if he dies,
26 and anyone who lives and believes in me
shall not die ever. Do you believe that?”

having a hope in God,
what these are themselves watching for,
that there is to be a resurrection of both
saints and guilty men.

Revelation 20:12-13
And I saw the dead, the great and the small,
standing before the throne, and books were opened;
and another book was opened, which is that of life;
and the dead were judged out of what was written
in the books, in accordance with their deeds.
13 And the sea gave up the dead that were in it,
and death and the world below gave up the dead
that were in them, and they were judged
each one in accordance with their deeds.
