Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.
(Mat 6:11-12)

In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God but you yourselves cast out. And people will come from east and west, and from north and south, and recline at table in the kingdom of God.
(Luk 13:28-29)
 

Wrong Matthew .

In Luke, that will happen in the future...not yet happened.

Sorry the other reference is in matthew 8:11-12

Still in the future.  So his spirit is with Jesus but his body awaits the resurrection.

And this is what? (past, future, etc..)

"Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad." - John 8:56

Do you know?

Abraham must have been told of God, concerning the coming of Christ into the world, and hearing it by faith, rejoiced in it.  For faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things unseen. He, like the other prophets, saw these things from afar and rejoiced in it.  He heard it with his physical ears, while in his physical body, for he is not in heaven.  No man has ascended into heaven but Christ only.

In Christ Jesus

My personal take: Body is worm food, Spirit is, from our perspective, "sleeping", but from his perspective he went straight from life to eternity. 

I see time as a current in an ocean called eternity.

John chapter 11 verse 25

Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die;
 

 

I don't know if that is good enough, but in the bible somewhere it says Abraham is the man of faith.

Do you think after Abraham passed on, and Jesus had ascended he saw God in his spirit? Do  you think his body is still awaiting the resurrection? If yes to both, so do I. :)

Hello Yowm,

Thank you for your gentle and quiet spirit, which in the sight of God is of great price.

I believe that Abraham, in the sight of God, is sleeping with the fathers of that nation, awaiting the resurrection, at a time of God's choosing: and that his spirit (or breath of life) has gone back to God who gave it. When mortality puts on immortality, and corruption puts on incorruption at the resurrection, Abraham will be a living soul once more, and take His allotted place in God's purpose in the heavenly Jerusalem, along with all of like Faith.

The Church which is the Body of Christ, of which He is the Head, awaits the appearing of Christ in glory, when they will appear with Him there in resurrection glory, for their life is hid with Christ in God. They will take the place assigned them, in heavenly places. Until then they will be reckoned, in the sight of God, to be asleep in Him, awaiting that day.

Sorry to be so long-winded, Yowm. :)

In Christ Jesus, our risen and glorified, Saviour, Lord, and Head.

Chris
