THE MISTRUST OF CHRIST

"...and the day of death is better than the day of birth", Ecclesiastes 7:1.  Such a statement is certainly contrary to the opinion of man.  Although some recognize that the world is so full of selfishness, vanity and lack of GOD in men's hearts, that they realize it is more desirable for man to go out of it, than to come into it.  Death is only "feared" when we don't TRUST what GOD PROMISES.  When we are not confident of our Salvation, the Love of CHRIST and HIS Forgiveness; we are fearful of everything, ESPECIALLY DEATH.  The worldly fear of death is founded in THE MISTRUST OF CHRIST.
