Death was not part of Jehovah purpose in the beginning.He wants us to live and be with family forever. (John 3:16) what about those who have died already like Jerry? The Bible answers that question. At John chapter eleven tell of an account where Jesus Christ showed that his father had given him power to returned life to the man there who had died . He can do the same for Mr. Jones.furthermore the bible teaches that in the future death will be no more. What a happy time that will be. [Rev. 21:4] there is going to be a ressurection that Jesus tells us about when he will return life to millions who have died.
