God is the God of the living, not the dead. He brought life to the dead bones of Israel, bringing them back from captivity.  By the Spirit he gives new life to spiritually dead men through the gospel. But the good news is more than just the salvation of our souls. God will raise our bodies in glory when Christ returns again, making us whole and fit to live eternally. Death gets no part of us in the end. Christ died for us wholly, that we might be wholly saved.
