Sören Kierkegaard
Christus spricht: In der Welt habt ihr
Angst, aber seid getrost, ich habe die
Welt überwunden.
Johannes 16,33

Der Tod ist die uns zugewandte Seite
jenes geheimnisvollen Ganzen,
dessen andere Seite die Auferstehung ist.
Romano Guardini
Denn der Staub muss wieder zu Erde werden, wie er gewesen ist. Und der Geist wieder zu Gott, der ihn gegeben hat.

- und das ist unser Glaube -
gestorben und auferstanden ist,
dann wird Gott durch Jesus auch die Verstorbenen
zusammen mit Ihm zur Herrlichkeit führen.
