Men still die, "it is appointed unto men" ( <span> Hebrews 9:27 </span> ), but the fear of death as having power to terminate or affect our personal existence and our union with God, as a dreadful stepping out into the unknown and unknowable (into [[Sheol]] of the impenetrable gloom), and as introducing us to a final and irreversible judgment, has been removed. Christ has taken out of it its sting ( <span> 1 Corinthians 15:55 </span> ) and all its hurtful power ( <span> Hebrews 2:14 </span> ); has shown it to be under His control ( <span> [[Revelation]] 1:18 </span> ), brought to light the incorruptible life beyond, and declared the ultimate destruction of death ( <span> 1 Corinthians 15:26 </span> ; compare <span> Revelation 20:14 </span> ). The [[Greek]] (, <i> <translit> katargeı̄tai </translit> </i> ) indicates that the process of destruction was then going on. </p>
