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.”
