Now lets get started. Passage Number 1.
The first verse on the subject of Mourning is Matthew chapter 5, verses 1 through 5. It says:
Seeing the multitudes, he went up onto the mountain. When he had sat down, his disciples
came to him. He opened his mouth and taught them, saying, “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for
theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven. Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. Blessed
are the gentle, for they shall inherit the earth. Passage Number 2. The second verse in our study
of Mourning is found in First Thessalonians chapter 4, verses 13 through 18. It says:
But we don’t want you to be ignorant, brothers, concerning those who have fallen asleep,
so that you don’t grieve like the rest, who have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus
died and rose again, even so God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep in Jesus.
For this we tell you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left until the
coming of the Lord, will in no way precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord himself
will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with God’s trumpet.
The dead in Christ will rise first, then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up
together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. So we will be with the Lord forever.
Therefore comfort one another with these words. Passage Number 3. For our third verse,
we turn in our Bible to Second Samuel chapter 3, verses 31 through 35. It reads:
David said to Joab and to all the people who were with him,
“Tear your clothes, and clothe yourselves with sackcloth, and mourn in front of Abner.”
King David followed the bier. They buried Abner in Hebron; and the king lifted up his voice and
wept at Abner’s grave; and all the people wept. The king lamented for Abner, and said, “Should
Abner die as a fool dies? Your hands weren’t bound, and your feet weren’t put into fetters.
As a man falls before the children of iniquity, so you fell.” All the people wept again over him.
All the people came to urge David to eat bread while it was yet day; but David swore, saying,
“God do so to me, and more also, if I taste bread or anything else, until the sun goes down.”
Passage Number 4. This is from Genesis chapter 37, verses 34 through 36. The scripture says:
Jacob tore his clothes, and put sackcloth on his waist, and mourned for his son many days.
All his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him, but he refused to be comforted.
He said, “For I will go down to Sheol to my son, mourning.” His father wept for him. The
Midianites sold him into Egypt to Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh’s, the captain of the guard.
Passage Number 5. The fifth verse is from First Corinthians chapter 15,
verses 20 through 26. The Bible says: But now Christ has been raised from the dead.
He became the first fruit of those who are asleep. For since death came by man, the resurrection of
the dead also came by man. For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive. But each
in his own order: Christ the first fruits, then those who are Christ’s at his coming. Then the end
comes, when he will deliver up the Kingdom to God the Father, when he will have abolished all rule
and all authority and power. For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet.
The last enemy that will be abolished is death. Congratulations! You've made it

Now lets continue our study on Mourning. Passage Number 6 is from Revelation chapter 21,
verses 1 through 5. It says: I saw a new heaven and a new earth,
for the first heaven and the first earth have passed away, and the sea is no more.
I saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God,
prepared like a bride adorned for her husband. I heard a loud voice out of heaven saying, “Behold,
God’s dwelling is with people; and he will dwell with them, and they will be his people,
and God himself will be with them as their God. He will wipe away every tear from their eyes.
Death will be no more; neither will there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain any more. The
first things have passed away.” He who sits on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new.”
He said, “Write, for these words of God are faithful and true.”
Passage Number 7. The seventh verse is found in Jeremiah chapter 16,
verses 6 through 8. The Bible says: Both great and small will die in this land.
They will not be buried. Men won’t lament for them, cut themselves, or make themselves bald
for them. Men won’t break bread for them in mourning, to comfort them for the dead.
Men won’t give them the cup of consolation to drink for their father or for their mother.
“You shall not go into the house of feasting to sit with them, to eat and to drink.”
Passage Number 8. The eighth verse on the subject of Mourning is from Job chapter 1,

Joseph fell on his father’s face, wept on him, and kissed him. Joseph commanded his servants,
the physicians, to embalm his father; and the physicians embalmed Israel.
Forty days were used for him, for that is how many days it takes to embalm. The Egyptians wept
for Israel for seventy days. This concludes our Bible study on the topic of Mourning.
