So a close examination of the word "Paradise" in that verse would reveal that the Paradise spoken of is not the same Paradise which is located in Hades. According to the Strongs and the Thayer's Greek English Lexicon the word Paradise 2 Cor. 12:4 is speaking of a "place of future happiness"...

Yes I do. I have done some very heavy studies of hell and found and I have found that there are, like all other things that God has created, three different sections to the lower parts of the earth. One is called Gehenna, which is a place of torment, Hades which is the place of departed souls...

I agree. No matter how many or what any scriptures says they will never back down from their doctrinal beliefs because they are prideful and have invested to much of themselves into a false and antichrist belief.

Now you are showing just how ignorant you really are. Christ is our perfect example for any and all aspects of life of our walk with him even in death even as He did we will go to Paradise/Bosom of Abraham and will be raised from the grave By God/Christ. I would say that your statement is...

So the very scriptures you quoted contradict what you are saying. Where does it say in either one of your quoted scriptures that those who are sleeping are in heaven?? Nowhere. However those who are sleeping does prove my point. Jesus stated that the girl wasn't dead but was sleeping. Mar 5:39...

The post your looking at was from 2014 and the postee has long since been gone.

Find in the Word of God where it says that when we die our soul goes straight to heaven. But before you search for it I am telling you that there is no such scripture that says that when we die we go straight to heaven. How do I know that? Because I have spent a long tome looking for it. I am...

You asked "What do you mean by Christ is our example?" Christ died and He first descended into the lower parts of the earth and He did not raise from the grave until God raised him from the grave and just like Christ we will die and we will descend down to the lower parts of the earth and we...

So you have studied the Quran?

Yes that is why the rich man was in hell with eye balls a tongue and could feel torment.

I was trying to be nice in my speech. Mar 2:17 When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. That is the difference between a city that has wealth and prosperity...

Well if Christ is our example then we well do what He did which is first to descend into the lower reaches of the earth and He did not raise himself from the grave, God did. Though your answer is a common one there is no scriptural proof that we go to heaven as soon as we die. You are right...

Keeping our eyes on Christ is how we reconcile these two verses. Just one has been blessed with the things of the world and enjoys the things of this world doesn't means they are highminded or trust in the things of this world because keeping our eyes on Christ keeps us humble and in our place...

That is a great point and I have a question as well. If everybody who has died in the name of or died a believer went straight to heaven when we they died. Who would Jesus raise from the grave??? Everybody would already be in heaven so all of the graves would be empty.

That is the difference between a poor and crime infested city and a more wealth city.

LOL Absolutely is absolutely correct. The church and the body are speaking about the same thing. Both the body/temple and the church/Temple are full of the believers and lovers of Christ. Church is where ever there are two or three gathered together in the name of Christ and every member of the...

No. The bolded part is from a KJV of the bible on the E-Sword app which is a free to download and I love it. The Companion Bible of 1611 was first published in 1922 by a man named E. W. Bullinger with 198 appendixes which are packed full of factual information and no commontary. The Bible is...

Mat 23:37 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not! Mat 23:38 Behold, your house is left unto you desolate...

Sorry can't go there. Verse 21 is talking about those who worshipped the image of the beast spoken of in verse 20 and the verse doesn't say that those who worshipped the image of the beast were Jewish people only. The scriptures are talking about those who worshipped the image around the world...
