What Is Death? Three Complementary Truths

Genesis 1–3 immediately focuses our attention on matters of life and death. This fact teaches us that God takes these matters seriously and that we ought to take them seriously as well. In this lesson, Dr. Waters expands on the five principles of death from Genesis 1–3, adding three complementary truths that help us to further define death as a multidimensional, a certain, and—apart from Christ—a fearful reality.
