AB - This study attempts to draw the relationship between death and the aged from a Christian perspective. The penalty which God announced to man in paradise was death. Death here intended is not that of the body, but that of man as a whole being in the Scriptural sense of the word. The Bible does not know the distinction, so common among us, between a physical death, a spiritual death, and an eternal death. I have a synthetic view of death and regard it as a separation from God.
Church traditions generally hold that the disembodied spirit will be united with the natural body that died on earth. The truth in this conception is that nothing of significance is really lost. There is a substantial, but not an exact, material identity between the final glorified body and the earthly body.
“Though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day” (2 Cor 4:16). “The days of our years are threescore years and ten ... yet is their pride only labour and sorrow. For it is soon cut off, and we fly away. So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts into wisdom” (Ps 90:10-12).
