Hello, My name is Caleb and I am one of Jehovahs Witnesses. Im very sorry for the death that youve experienced in your family recently. Ive just been sharing a comforting scripture with you and similar individuals who have lost dear loved ones in death. John 11:25 says... "He that exercises faith in me, even though he dies, will come to life."
We agree with the bible when it says at Acts 24:15... that there will be a resurrection, of both the righteous and unrighteous.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.. please know that we are thinking of you and your family during this hardship.
Thank you for your time,
Sincerely,
Caleb Aniol
