Bible Note: Lionstrong: I agree. Knowing that a loved one is absent from the body and present with the Lord does not remove the sense of loss and grief for those left behind. According to 1 Cor. 15 it will be not until Christ comes and we shall be changed that the saying will come to pass "death is swallowed up of victory" 1 Cor. 15:54 We read in John 11:35 "Jesus wept." He wept for those who mourned the loss of a loved one, even though he knew that he would raise Lazarus from the dead. Is it not amazing that the eternal creator and sustainer of all things: wept?
