Death by mcfynest(m): 2:07pm On May 23, 2013 |
greetings to all of you in the name of Jesus. I am writing this article so as to give us 'christians' a biblical understanding of what happens after an individual breaths his last breath. This am saying now is based upon my understanding of the bible and the holyspirit helped in interpreting part i dont understand. now lets talk about the main subject. According to the following verses...... matthew 9 vs24... He said unto them, Give place: for the maid is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn. John 11:11 These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep. Acts 7:60 And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell asleep. 1 Corinthians 15:6 After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. Ecclesiastes 9:5 For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten. Based on the above text from the holy bible, we can understand that when a person dies, he does not go to a world beyond or transforms into something else. He is asleep waiting for the time that he would be woken uo someday. Just like when we sleep, we are conscious of nothing, we just lie on where we slept waiting to be woken up by instinct. secondly, lets us consider the following verses ....... John 5:28 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, 5:29 And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation. Acts 24:15 And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust this is just the simple and logical explanation of death so fellas isnt it quite simple to know that one day our friends and family will be ressurected and we will see them once more? may d peace of the Lord be with you all |
