Death’s Reminders We will have experienced the good life God wants for us if we live right (7:1, 8) – 2 Tim. 4:6-8; Heb. 11:13; Rev. 14:13 We do not have authority over the day of our death (8:8) – James 4:14

Death’s Reminders We need to make of the most of every day before we die (9:2-5, 9-10) – Rom. 14:7-8 We will face our Creator in judgment after we die (11:9 – 12:1, 7, 13-14) – Heb. 9:27; Rev. 20:12-13
