Another inaccurate impression is that death ends all of our problems. While it's true that after we die we will not have to face the tax auditor, listen to an angry boss, or deal with problem children, we will have to face God. Death is not the easy way out. It will be gain for some and loss for others. And many people are in for a big surprise.
Death is an ugly beast.
It comes at us like a fictional dragon with snorting nostrils and blazing breath, intent on devouring us. There is no use trying to gloss over its awfulness and unnaturalness. After all, God didn't create man and woman to wear out and be thrown away like broken toys. God made us special, with the ability to relate to Him as no animal could. Death crashed Adam and Eve's garden party the moment they decided to disobey God.
