Does death bring to Christians unassuaged sorrow?

Answer

"I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that you sorrow not,
even as others which have no hope." 1 Thess. 4: 13.
NOTE - The loss of loved ones God often uses as a means of conversion, and of severing the ties
which bind to earth. Persecution; sickness, the loss of sight, hearing, or limb; the loss of property; or other
calamities, may likewise be instrumental in drawing us nearer to God. See Ps. 119: 71; Isa. 26: 9.
