The understanding I gained was in a search for truth about death, using Only scriptures without any previous indoctrination...The big part that's throwing people off is they believe dying is simply leaving the Body, basically just jumping from one life to the next...And that's not real death according to the Bible...The Bible is clear from the beginning on what man is...People say "we have a soul" the Bible said Man IS a Soul. And that soul is made living by the Spirit of Life that Belongs to God.  And man has to die, and that's not talking about flesh.

And when something dies that spirit of life returns to the one who gave it-Ecclisasties 

Then the souls of the dead get stored (we could say)  where they belong, wether thats abrahams bosom or the pit. (Both in Sheol)

 

And they are truly dead, but the Rightoues won't even taste death, it won't have any sting, Isaiah says they get rest, peace, state of repose...wich aligns with Lazor "Being comforted" in Abrahams Bosom, as you see in Luke. And rich man being in torment aligns with what Solomon said in Ecclisasties about the wicked have madness in Thier heart during life and after they goto the dead. 

This is actually one of the biggest points of the Good News(Gospel) is because thru Messiah we won't be forever held captive in Sheol, we know he's returning, and that When He does all of Israel(His ppl)will be resurrected- Ezekiel

And like I was saying Messiah raising from the dead wasn't the big deal, as he raised many other from the dead, but they died again...The amazing thing was he was Raised with a ETERNAL BODY! Proving we can truly live Forever. So we know it WILL truly happen to us on His return. 

The only book I read on this was the Bible. 

And as it says in James God never changes not even the shadow of a change, as he had a plan from the beginning for His ppl to live eternally,,,"lest they eat from the tree of life and Live forever" 

Properly understanding  death will help people properly understand the great Gift of Eternal life. 

Halleluyah. 

I think it's John 3,13 says no man hath ascended into the heavens...acts said David has not ascended...

And we never really do, when HE returns we will be alive on This earth for 1000 years, truly alive again, just like now but wayyy better. And then after the 1000 years Then we enter the Kingdom with floors of see thru gold, and no death etc., And that's on The New Earth. Until then we will be greatly prvledged to enter into the Shalom(peace) of Abrahams Bosom.

 

What u mentioned about born from above goes back to gan eden...And when Eve was called "The mother of all living"

But it's appointed for all men to die once, and dying is going to Sheol. Not leaving the flesh and jumping from one life into another.

No dead people go into "Heaven" that's why no verses not even one says that. 

 

 

 

Mathew 22:

29 Jesus replied, 

“You are in error because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God. 30 At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven. 31 But about the resurrection of the dead—have you not read what God said to you, 32 ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’?

 He is not the God of the dead but of the living.”

33 When the crowds heard this, they were astonished at his teaching.

John 11:25

King James Version
And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?

Darby Bible Translation
and every one who lives and believes on me shall never die. Believest thou this?

Whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?"

42 And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.

43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with me in paradise. LUKE 23

It doesn't say Heaven here but that would be good enough for me if i was in that position.

27 But I tell you of a truth, there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God.

28 And it came to pass about an eight days after these sayings, he took Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to pray.

29 And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and glistering.

30 And, behold, there talked with him two men, which were Moses and Elias:

31 Who appeared in glory, and spake of his decease which he should accomplish at Jerusalem.

32 But Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep: and when they were awake, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him.

33 And it came to pass, as they departed from him, Peter said unto Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias: not knowing what he said.

34 While he thus spake, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them: and they feared as they entered into the cloud.

35 And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.

36 And when the voice was past, Jesus was found alone. And they kept it close, and told no man in those days any of those things which they had seen.LUKE 9

Moses and Elias are hanging out some place. Can't say how every thing happens just gotta believe its all good in the end with our LORD And everything that is with Him.

I know everyone is of the belief that When they die they then goto Heaven. but there is no such verse in the Bible anywhere I can find. 

From what I've seen the promise is ...eventually,..Eternal Life on Earth, and then the New earth, But nothing says while a person is dead they ascend into the Heavens. 

There is no dead people in Heaven. 

But people of God while dead get true peace and rest, a state of repose. Until the ressurection of the dead. Then the reward of Eternal life. 

Mark 14:62

62 And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.
KJV

2 Cor 5:8

8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.

If they were asleep, they cannot be witnesses! imo...  : )

It's not necessary that the witnesses still be "awake" or alive.  They witness to us through the scripture.  Besides, even if they were awake/alive, we can't communicate directly with them, only through the historical record, so they are no more effective to us as witnesses (for now) whether dead or alive.

King David a Life time soldier, said: 

"I will be watching from the walls of Sheol."

What did David wanted to say? 

One question at a time.

Christ has the keys to death and hell yes? "I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of Death."

So OT "and the dust returns to the earth as it was, and the spirit returns to God who gave it". The thief on the cross "today you will be WITH ME in paradise"

"For we know that if the tent that is our earthly home is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens."

"Yes, we are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord."

What I know is.. if this body/tent dies I  will be with my Father.. I will be in paradise. Now WHERE exactly that is? It was made just for you :) I believe

The Paradise in this context is not the Garden of Eden, but it was the place God gave to Abraham and to his descendants after their death. 

God made Abraham a Patriarch of a Nation and he set him apart from the world, in Life and in Death. 

Their Inheritance in Life was the Land of Canaan and their Inheritance at death was a place which was called "?Abraham's Inheritance "Sheol " or the Bossom of Abraham...

Abraham as a Patriarch was the first one to go there.

And Jesus Christ was the last because Abraham joined Jesus Christ as he and David and everyone of his descendants who was there were waiting for their Lord God as the Christ to take them unto his own Inheritance the Heavenly one.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
