John 11:26 has been illicitly translated (which is to say mistranslated) by nearly every common English version, resulting in billions of people thinking that, if they believe in Jesus, they won't
die. Interesting that this was the first lie of Satan recorded in Scripture (as rendered in the common versions): "You shall not surely die." Would the Scriptures, correctly translated, corroborate a lie of Satan?
No, they would not.
When John 11:26 is translated correctly, an important truth shines forth that not only corroborates the scriptural teaching on death, but that guarantees a resurrection to all who believe in Jesus as the Messiah of Israel.
