AMPLIFIED 2015 | 2 Corinthians 5:8 we are [as I was saying] of good courage and confident hope, and prefer rather to be absent from the body and to be at home with the Lord. |
Bible Question (short): absentfrombodyisto be present with Lord |
Question (full): I think Paul said, "to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord Jesus". I gather that is why he did not fear death, which I think is pretty cool. I'm having a tough time finding it in the Bible. I guess I don't have the correct key words to complete a successful search. Can you help me. Thanks, Wordnut. |
