DEATH

DEATH
We
were not created to die. We die by our own fault. The death of our
body is not inflicted on us by the law of nature nor the intent of God. It
is inflicted on us as a punishment for sin.
God
did not make death, but only after man fell into the disgrace of guilt and
deception did God decree the sentence that man should return to earth.
St.
Augustine

Death
is not evil, it is the end of a good life. Death becomes evil only if you
are going to hell afterwards. They then who are destined to die need not be
careful to inquire what death they are to die, but into what place death
will usher them.
St.
Augustine
