But in reading that, what impressed me…because I’ve always known survival, nothing dies as far as I’m concerned. So I know that nothing dies, so I’m not looking for assurance of survival. I’m not looking for someone to encourage me that those I love do not cease to be because they’ve gone through the experience that men call death. I am so confident of all surviving. God is a God of the living, not the dead. “I am the God of the living” said he, “not of the dead” . So everything lives in its form where it was at the moment of the transition. No transforming power in death.191 ¶19
