They have to consult their pastor or church before they read scripture.

I guess you are one of those who won't experience ressurection...since when you die you run straight to heaven.......even Jesus didn't evade death and inactiveness......

Learn from the scriptures and stop this shout shout you're on.....
You need to be saved from your life of falsehood so you can partake of the resurrection. If not, you are heading to hell. You think God smiles at false teachings. Resurrection is for the genuine children of God while the second resurrecion is for false prophets like you who have deceived people and sinners alike.

If our hope to be with Christ is death, then what is the significance of the resurrection.

Paul called death the last enemy to be defeated, but how can death be an enemy? Surely we should look forward to death and not the resurrection since death is to be with the Lord, no?

Hehehehehe........why do you want to be ressurected??because I guess you're among the genuine children of God....I don't think you know what ressurection is and what it entails.....alexleo what is ressurection??.....would Jesus waste his time ressurecting you in the future when your spirit is supposed to be in heaven already with him??.....answer mr hell fire teacher....

@ijawkid stop asking stoopid questions & crazy insinuations.
1. I said God is a spirit. Whtever ur definition of spirit is from dt point pls apply same to d spirit of man. If u refuse to do dis then I doubt ur sincerity.
2. U said Jesus preached to d spirits in prison after he rose? Really?! I'm shocked. He who said all power in heaven, on earth & UNDER THE EARTH hv bn given 2 him. There r spirits with powers under d earth. There were spirits he preached to in prison while dead in body & alive in d spirit. Eph 4:8 Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men. 9 (Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth? 10 He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.)
Jesus wasn't inactive for 3 days as u hv bn thought. I believe u can use ur brain and ask d right questions. Jesus was alive in spirit evn when dead in body

God is a spirit from john 4:24........are humans spirits??..........you are the fraudulent person here...trying to argue that you are spiritjust as God is.....are you joking or what??....angry.......

Please read the account of genesis.......I can't remember when last you were invisible just as spirits are.......

Hehehehehe...........and your exegesis of ephesians got me laughing......so when it says Jesus descended to the lower parts of the earth ,you forgot it simply means Jesus was buried beneath the earth??.....smh!!!.....so you are one of those kids who were thought that spirits stay under the ground......grin......

Ok my question to you......those spirits who were in captive,where were they??.....under the earth or somewhere up in the atmosphere......

Jesus was as inactive as jonah was 3days in that belly of the big fish....Jonah whom Jesus used as a case study for was inactive for 3 good days before he was released to go carry out the preaching commission......only bobby and co would run off to agree that Jonah was preaching to the ninevites while in the belly of the fish......in the same vain Jesus could never have been able to preach to any spirit until he was ressurected..........Jesus couldn't be alive and still be ressurected...you guys have rubbished the most important doctrine of christianity....RESSURECTION....if Jesus before he descended from the heavens was a spirit In heaven and you say he was alive in the spirit while dead,why then should he be ressurected??....answer this question.........

And mind you as at the time Jesus said all authority had been given him both in heaven and on earth he was already ressurected.......

Bobby and co, two simple questions :

If our hope is death since we meet Jesus immediately after , kind explain the following :

1. Why should we bother looking forward to the resurrection , since we are with the Lord anyway ?
2. Why did Paul call death an enemy ? Surely death should be a friend for the believer ?


Thanks.

So when he descended he was inactive but when he ascended wht happened? I'm tolerating u because of neutrals who may think u hv a point.
Ephesians said he descended to d lower parts & then ascended to heaven dt he may fill all things. He went (active word) into d lower parts. It didn't say he was put there, HE DESCENDED! God will help u to put awau childish reasonings since u will evn claim Jesus lied so dt ur beliefs can be upheld. Shame


U r asking wht d spirit of man is. Really? It is nt just breath. U r a spirit living in dt body of urs. Because ur body is abode dts y d Holy Spirit can also dwell therein.
Lest I forget, have u reveived d Holy Spirit since u believed?

A little reminder for my freinds alexleo,bobby,true2God etc......

Ecclesiastes 12:6

New International Version
(©2011)
Remember him--before the silver
cord is severed, and the golden
bowl is broken; before the pitcher
is shattered at the spring, and the
wheel broken at the well,
_____________________________
verse 7 from many renditions...

##Holman Christian Standard Bible
(©2009)
and the dust returns to the earth
as it once was, and the spirit
returns to God who gave it."

##International Standard Version
(©2012)
then man's dust will go back to the
earth, returning to what it was,
and the spirit will return to the
God who gave it.

##NET Bible (©2006)
and the dust returns to the earth
as it was, and the life's breath

Then the dust [of mortals] goes
back to the ground as it was
before, and the breath of life

Then shall the dust return to the
earth as it was: and the spirit
shall return unto God who gave it.

___________________________

I hope y'all can clearly see what the spirit in man means and where it goes to after death...........

Jesus knew about what mans spirit really is that is why he said no man hath acsended into heaven..........Jesus knew that all that returned to the Father from all those who had died was the same life force the Father breathed into them and not some seperate entity that keeps living.................

It is this same spirit that keeps your dogs,goats ,horses,chickens, and all animals living.......and these animals are living souls just as humans are..........

Hehehehe........and you forget that paul was referring to Jesus' own words about Jonahs inactivity in the fish of the belly and how it applied to Jesus??.........so the descend is now your problem??..........you're speaking like the word ""descend"" would have been used if Jesus was not buried....why didn't Jesus descend to the earth to maybe go and play when he was alive preaching to everybody??......the word descend simply means Jesus was buried and he stayed in the heart of the earth for 3days......inactive as jonah was.....
_______________________________
I am not a spirit my brother.....you are not a spirit either.........take that crappy doctrine to pagans who believe likewise........SPIRITS are invisible.........

It is because of this false doctrine that so many people are caged with the fear of the dead.....what makes you different from a traditional worshipper that believes that after man dies his spirit can still come back to harm or do good things to others??......

That is why your nigerian films are filled with the ghost of dead ones coming to hunt there then enemies when they were alive......

The dogma of the immortality of the soul is what is responsible.........

See bobby there was one little assignment you haven't carried out yet........

Check out the original hebrew and greek words that the translation you're using has rendered as ""HELL""......

The KJV rendered all these words as HELL there by confusing its readers.....

1....HADES
2...SHEOL.
3...TARTARUS......

I want you to go do a brief study on those original terms and come back for more discussions.....I guess it was enilove that I showed how the word sheol was rendered in some books of proverbs he quoted from...........

You should go do research on your own......

That is why I also told you that some translations either made a mistake or knowingly wanted to enforce the dogma of hell fire by translating hades and sheol as HELL...........going by there wrong renderings Jesus also went to HELL.....meaning Jesus was a bad man,,.....since all bad people go to HELL.........

My bro do more study.........it doesn't kill.....

Beware of false prophets!
The danger of false prophets is greater today than at any other time in history!
Matt. 24:4 And Jesus answered and said to them: “Take heed that no one deceives you.
Matt. 24:5 For many will come in My name, saying, “I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many.
And…
Matt. 24:11 Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many.

I will take up ur advice for research.
Btw, Jesus became a bad man when u took ur sins on d cross II Cor 2:21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
Dts y he went to hell
Re: The Rich Man And Lazarus by Pygru: 2:15pm On Apr 13, 2013
Protect yourself
Just as in Ezekiel’s day the only defense against false prophets is to know the true Word of God !
Those who don’t know the word have a weak spiritual immune system and thereby cannot defend themselves against the poison of bad doctrine and false teaching.
You’ll also find that people who don’t know God’s word will become desperate enough in life that they’ll believe anything ~ even a false hope.
Remember, the largest percentage of converts to cults are Christians who didn’tknow God’s Word…
…so beware of false prophets!
