Описание: This beautiful & triumphant "laugh at death's defeat" takes its source from Paul's 1st letter to the Corinthian church (1 Cor. 15:54-57) in approximately 59 AD. He was shocked to learn that some false apostles had convinced them that there was no resurrection of the dead & proceeded to give them his now famous theological lesson treatise on the subject. So are we doomed to eternal oblivion after our heart stops beating? Does death, the existential "black hole", rule over humanity eternally? God's answer is "ABSOLUTELY NOT!" Christ earned the hard-fought victory by submitting to him, that is, death, but after He had freed all of death's captives in the underworld (the human soul never dies), He exercised His authority & stripped him of all of his power over the souls of the righteous. "O death, where is your sting? O grave, where is your victory? Thanks be to God, who gives us the victory in our Lord Jesus Christ!" And, I guess that's why Beethoven starts his great 5th symphony with the "grim reaper's" ominous "knock on the door" (Ba-na-na-naaaaaaa!), but then ends it with the most jubilant & triumphant 4th movement a composer could ever write. CHRIST HAS DEFEATED DEATH & for those who have made Christ their Lord, there is no Hades, hell or dark underworld...JUST ETERNAL GLORY WITH GOD & HIS ANGELS!"
