Brother Bertram Burse, Officiating

Isaiah 25:8

He will swallow up death forever, And the

Sovereign Lord Jehovah will wipe away the

tears from all faces. The reproach of his

people he will take away from all the earth,

For Jehovah himself has spoken it.

1 Corinthians15:24-26

24 Next, the end, when he hands over the

Kingdom to his God and Father, when he

has brought to nothing all government and

all authority and power.

25 For he must rule as king until God has

put all enemies under his feet.

26 And the last enemy, death, is to be

brought to nothing.

Revelation 21: 3-4

3 With that I heard a loud voice from the

throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with

mankind, and he will reside with them, and

they will be his people. And God himself will

be with them.

4 And he will wipe out every tear from their

eyes, and death will be no more, neither will

mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore.

The former things have passed away.”
