The cycle of death and rebirth is woven throughout scripture. Whether it is the earth being created, destroyed, and recreated or man being created, dying, and being reborn, there is a cycle to death and rebirth that repeats. This cycle is also evident in our calling as we put to death the "old man" and the Spirit of God creates in us a new man. God is not the God of the dead, but of the living. God is the creator and sustainer of life, and He has promised that after our physical death, He will give us eternal spiritual life in His kingdom, if we remain faithful.
