How Will You Die? (6 of 7)
Series: LIVING BY FAITH IN A CULTURE OF FEAR
Stan Coffey
Hebrews 9:27-28
This morning we want to continue talking about "Living By Faith In A Culture Of Fear." There is plenty of fear going around. Today we are going to talk about the fear of death. There came out here to West Texas a lady from the east and she kept hearing the cowboys say they wanted to die with their boots on.

After the service he asked the man, I noticed every time I said every member of the church is going to die you would laugh. How could you do that? Why, that is an odd response. The man said, because I am not a member of this church!
I want you to look at the passage of Scripture today that is our text, Hebrews 9:27-28. It does indeed tell us what we already know. If you do not believe the Bible is the Word of God you will still agree with this verse of Scripture. Whether or not you are a believer in the Bible there are many things the Bible says that you will agree with. And you will agree with this.
