First of all, the "Nephesh" leaves the body. This beautiful Hebrew word has been translated as the "Ghost or soul" which means that the ghost or soul will leave the body. The other Hebrew word that was used was "Ruach" which has been translated as Spirit. So everybody is on the bandwagon that there are many spirits and ghosts floating around us an all over the show, and even the Roman Catholic Church has given this place of gathering of the spirits where people on this earth can pray for the spirits, as the "Purgatory". The word "Nephesh" has other meanings as well namely:- Any, Appetite, Beast, Body, Breath, Creature, Dead, Desire, Ghost, Heart, Life, Lust, Man, Mind, One, Own, Person, Pleasure, Self, Soul, Thing, Will, Fish, Hearty, Mortal, etc. The word "Ruach" means:- Air, Anger, Blast, Breath, Cool, Courage, Mind, quarters, Side, Spirit, Tempest, Wind, Vain, Windy. Please note that both words also quote Breath and Mind. So if anybody said that the Breath or Mind (Memory) leaves the body when you die, you will not think twice about it but it is very much different if somebody says the Spirit or Ghost left the body. With this in the back of your mind, things will become clear when it is said that when Jesus comes to resurrect the Saved first, before the Millennium and the non-saved after the Millennium, they will rise from their graves and they will be alive again or, living Souls, Breathing and with their Memories intact. There will be no re-incarnation or whatever they want to call it, of spirits or ghosts entering the body again with resurrection. It will be as if you have been sleeping and just woke up, either to be taken on the cloud with Jesus, or to to join satan to later on be destroyed by fire and brimstone. Some people believe and teach that the "Spirit" goes to heaven when the person dies and that is also not true as the person is to be judged before he/she goes to heaven. Jesus Christ is currently busy with two things namely, building the New Jerusalem and judging the people to sort the Saved and the non-saved. So the person who teaches that the Spirit of the person is with God in heaven when he/she dies, is a huge lie. I hope this is clear to you and to everybody else out there that is reading this.[/QUOTE]
