Rhapsody Of Realities TeeVo Pastor Chris Oyakhilome PhD Friday, June 13th 2025 NO DEATH ZONE (You’ve Passed From Death To Life) TO THE BIBLE: 2 Timothy 1:10 “...our Savior Jesus Christ, who has abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel,” LET’S TALK The Bible records that in ancient times, humans lived for hundreds of years, with some exceeding 900 years. But as sin increased, human lifespans shortened, and Genesis 6:3 states that God set a limit of 120 years. Later, Moses observed that most people lived around 70 to 80 years, and even then, life was filled with hardship (Psalm 90:8-10). The Lord Jesus, however, came to address this by dealing with the root cause—sin. Through His sacrifice, He made eternal life possible, which means we’ve been passed from death to life (John 5:24). The Lord Jesus didn’t just defeat death, He abolished it. That’s why 1 Corinthians 15:55 NLT declares, “O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?” The Lord Jesus proved death had no hold on Him when He rose from the grave after three days. So why then do Christians still die? The reason is, many don’t fully understand this truth (Psalm 82:5-7), and the consciousness of death keeps them bound. We’ll learn a bit more about the fear of death in our next study. You might ask, “Pastor Chris, are you saying we are not supposed to die?” Absolutely! We can live beyond the confines of earthly limitations. The Bible lets us know that many of us will be alive and physically raptured from the earth when the trumpet sounds (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17). As children of God, we have His divine life, one that isn’t ruled by sickness, disease, or death. 2 Peter 1:4 says we have become “…partakers of the divine nature and have escaped the corruption that is in the world.” Death is one of those “corruptions” from which you’ve been extricated. Hallelujah! GO DEEPER Hebrews 2:14-15 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; 15 And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. Mark 9:1 NIV And he said to them, “Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see that the kingdom of God has come with power.” 1 Corinthians 15:51-56 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. 54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. 55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? 56 The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. SPEAK I refuse to be bound by the consciousness of death or the limitations of this world. I walk in the fullness of the life and victory that Christ has obtained for me, and I live in health, strength and vitality. I live out the transcendent life, demonstrating the power and glory of God in all areas of my life.
