The scriptures offer us the promise of life without end. Becoming a child of God is the purpose for which we were given life. As in Adam, we all were only given a temporary life. We are subject to death. But Christ offers us the hope of inhabiting eternity with Him in a world without mourning, crying or pain. Our goal is to become permanent.
