Joel Died - Obituary
« on: March 23, 2024, 01:17:11 PM »

Our spiritual brother Joel died in February. I found his Obituary this morning.  I love this statement in his Obituary that describes him:

"He will be remembered as a quiet, gentle, family man."


Here is a link to his Obituary:

God bless his memory and multiply his works.  As someone who can't be described as a quiet, gentle family man, I admired Joel to the point of envy.  This mortal must put on immortality.

Yes, Joel was a kind and gentle man and we are grateful for the time where he helped us all.

I’m so sorry to hear this.  We will see you in the morning Joel - rest peacefully.

I've tried to avoid this thread for a while because when I searched my last interaction with Joel, we seemed to share a common quality of a dislike for words. I've pondered more than once whether like Joel, my time on this earth is approaching the end.
This is no pity party and I'm not particularly scared of death(though I'm a pain averse person).
To be frank, sometimes I wish it would all just end in 'sleep'.
We will meet again Joel. Rest.

Hi Matty,
If I understand correctly, after death we each will return to the earth at the resurrection, either the first when Christ returns or the great white throne when we who remain will face judgment. Meanwhile we sleep in unconcious bliss unaware of the passing of time. Like you I do not favor a painful end, but other than that I have no fear of death.

Hi Bob

I meant that when we are all one family of God which every human who ever lived eventually will be, then we will meet again. I want to thank you for clarifying that all this will happen on earth. I just always imagined a different "new earth". My brain struggles to go that far currently. I yearn for more understanding.

By the way, I always thought that whether in the first or second resurrections, believers would recognise each other.. families etc too. Am I off the mark?
