No, no, NOOOOOOOooooo !
Lol.
Eknockson, you got it all wrong, as most usual with your heresies of teaching and belief and adamant MISunderstandings of the bible taught others, but, no, THIS TIME, with 'captivity captive' being freed , you GOT this right, and, it's a big RIGHT !
SO, God bless you for showing others this Truth.
Shining light said that people were in ground until Jesus rose . True ! Except elijah, Moses have appeared with God on mountain, so they were obviously raiSED !
BUT, YEAH, ,your nonsensical trivialities ranked even higher than tribers, jimdig, others of their CHOSEN belief that no one can come to God He just forces you, ahhhhhhh (shining light aura) to be His. Ahhh, límites atonenent I LOVE to haTE that irrationalism that is herey that directly refutes God saying so many FREE CHOICE decisions in scripture.
But, you got this righto, INDEED, the VEIL was TORN IN TWO and the spirits of dead SAVED arose to be in 'paradise,' (Luke 19 is not simple story or 'parable,' where is word 'parable' mentioned? It's not!) where abraham, Moses, elijah, enoch, many others who rose when veil split and Jesus arose, are now in cerebral form, in paradise, they are with Jesus too. It's not mysterious, it's deep, justifiable, scripture chrono Truth
Can this all really be true, green? What about thessalonians, that says '...God will bringvwith Him those who SLEEP IN JESUS.
This IS present tense, saying those 'who sleep in Jesus' will 'bring with Him. 1 Thes. 4:14
Those who 'sleep in Jesus' will rise first. OK, so you're saying what, green?
I'm saying that, YES!, some sleep, NOT all, some ARE in 'good' side paradise, some 'torment'side. And, those who do sleep will NOT SLEEP ALONE, for they will sleep in Jesus
