What happens when we die? In this exhortation, we let the Scriptures explain it and take some time to apply the lesson to our own lives. Please forgive us for losing composure with this weighty subject! As the Spirit exhorts us through Solomon, "It is better to go to the house of mourning, than to go to the house of feasting: for that is the end of all men; and the living will lay it to his heart" (Ecclesiastes 7:2).

If you are intimately in tune with what is going on, you may consider skipping down to the heading Relevance to Prophecy . If you aren’t closely following what is going on, please read on from here and we’ll summarize. This letter is longer than ones we have shared recently, and that is because it is important.
