Get the appLast Will & Testament: The Last Apostle | John 16Sample
Jesus’s goodbye is just for a time. Death seems final. Jesus’s did. Here he encourages his disciples. “You’re going to see me again!” The disciples didn’t quite grasp Jesus’s resurrection just yet. They probably didn’t quite grasp the fullness of life he kept offering in his name. Oftentimes, neither do we. The good news of Jesus is that even though we are separated from him for a time, and even though death separates us from our loved ones in Christ, he is coming again! Resurrection! Death is not the last chapter of the story.
