Fear not the sentence of death

Ecclesiasticus 41:3 KJVAAE
[3] Fear not the sentence of death, remember them that have been before thee, and that come after; for this is the sentence of the Lord over all flesh. 
2 Corinthians 1:9-10 KJVAAE
[9] but we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God which raiseth the dead: [10] who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us; 
Jeremiah 10:23-24 KJVAAE
[23] O Lord, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps. [24] O Lord, correct me, but with judgment; not in thine anger, lest thou bring me to nothing. 
Psalm 51:17 KJVAAE
[17] The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
Hebrews 13:15 KJVAAE
[15] By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips, giving thanks to his name. 
Romans 8:11 KJVAAE
[11] But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
2 Corinthians 4:14 KJVAAE
[14] knowing that he which raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also by Jesus, and shall present us with you. 
1 Corinthians 15:19-20 KJVAAE
[19] If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable. [20] But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept. 

All glory and praise to the Living God for the Spirit flowing throughout all the gospel, not my writing here just giving glory to the Author of Life

"knowing that he which raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also by Jesus, and shall present us with you." This knowledge will save us from all dread of death and will aid us in having a peaceful death. Thanks Stephan, for sharing these scriptural quotes.
