No such thing . ( John 11 v 25 )

I wonder what you think of the following statement by Melanie Reid,''Western culture makes it hard for the healthy to accept the reality of illness and the existence of death. Yes us disabled types remind everyone about death, which is awkward  in a society that has decided there is no such thing''. Let me ask the question again as to what you think about what she says?. I once heard someone say that death is not natural, when God created humanity , they were never meant to die.So it means that we would rather not think to much about it,because there is unreality about it,here one minute gone the next.Western culture is often taken up with healing,an expectation that there must be a cure, of course when we are old and very infirmed we want to die ,because our bodies ,and minds, are by their sell by date.It is a foolish thing to deny the reality of death,and of course in these days God also . What He says , is not heeded or welcomed, in fact you wish He was dead. But of course He is not,for He is the living God.and when mankind did their worse and killed Him in the person of Christ, by nailing Him to a cross, He rose from the dead.                                                                                                                                                                            Hebrews 9 v 27                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             '  Man is destined to die once, and after that to face                                                                                                             death.'
