This is the third lesson in a series about Jesus and the guidance He has given us. The first lesson is the Faithful Witness which is Jesus. He is the Creator and He came here in the flesh to save us. As the faithful witness He went through everything in the flesh that we experience, yet did not sin. He has provided in His New Testament what was witnessed by Him and we can depend upon what He says. The second lesson is Being Faithful Unto Death. Jesus provided all of the guidance His disciples need to be faithful to Him until they die. This third lesson looks at what Jesus has provided to us about what happens when we die, where we go, and the fact that we continue to live even though our body is in the grave. Jesus being the Creator and the faithful witness can be depended upon by every human being to have provided reliable information on life after death,
