Conquering the Enemy Death - How? - WHEN WILL DEATH BE CONQUERED?

Today, in fulfillment of Bible prophecy, we live in"critical times hard to deal with," proving that we live in the "last days" of this evil system of things.  (2 Timothy 3:1)  The last days will culminate in "the day of judgment and of destruction of the ungodly people." (2 Peter 3:3, 7) But people who live God will survive that destruction and be blessed with "everlasting life." - MATTHEW 25:46.

Millions of others will have the opportunity of gaining everlasting life when are resurrected. Jesus performed a resurrection when he visited the city of Nain.  The only son of a widow had died, and Jesus "moved with pity,"  raised him to life again. (Luke 7:11-15) Also, the apostle Paul said:  "I have hope toward God . . . that there is going to be a resurrection of both  the righteous and the unrighteous."  This solid hop is an extraordinary demonstration of God's love for mankind." - ACTS 24:15.

Billions can look forward to living forever.  The Bible says: "The righteous will possess the earth, and they will live forever upon it."  (Psalm 37:29) At that time, they personally experience the stirring yet comfortable words that the apostle Paul wrote some 2,000 years ago: "Death, is where your sting?"  (1 Corinthians 15:55)  Mankind's formidable enemy death will have been conquered!
