A Resurrection Hope

1 Corinthians 15:55-57 King James Version (KJV)

55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?

56 The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.

57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Song of Solomon 2:11-12 English Standard Version (ESV)
11 for behold, the winter is past;
    the rain is over and gone.
12 The flowers appear on the earth,
    the time of singing[a] has come,
and the voice of the turtledove
    is heard in our land.

2 Timothy 2:11 New International Version (NIV)
11 Here is a trustworthy saying:
If we died with him,
    we will also live with him;
