THE UPPERTAKER

Alexander MacLaren said, "The primitive church thought more about the Second Coming of Jesus Christ than about death or about heaven. The early Christians were not looking for a cleft in the ground called a grave but for a cleavage in the sky called Glory. They were watching not for the undertaker but for the uppertaker."

(From a sermon by Jimmy Chapman, "THE BLESSED HOPE" 2/11/2009)
