IS THEIR LIFE AFTER DEATH?
LIVE.... LIVE.... LIVE!!!
Life is for the Living, so Live!
Jesus shows up after the funeral and burial of Lazarus, where he finds Martha and Mary mourning over the death of their brother. Martha said to Jesus, "If you had been here, my brother would not have died. Jesus said to her, "Your brother will rise again."
Martha said to Jesus, "I know my brother will rise again in the resurrection at the last day." Jesus said to her, "I AM The Resurrection, and The Life, he who believes in me though he were dead, yet will he live, and he who is alive and believes in me will never die."
So, believe God while you are living. Show your beliefs by how you live. We should live our lives to live again. Know that it's not over when they do the eulogy. Why do we who know Christ weep as though we have no hope, and or as if we will never see our loved ones again who were believers? Of course, we cry and are sad, but as believers and followers of Christ, we have hope! The world has no hope.
Jesus said, "I Am the Resurrection" he didn't say, he was going to be The Resurrection" so, why are we waiting to die to live? Do you believe there are Christians in the grave waiting on a trumpet as well as Jesus's return from heaven in order to live again?
Resurrection is not an event, but a person! Jesus the Christ is the Resurrection!
Those who died under the law (Old Testament) was taught they would go to paradise, and it's there that the Messiah would come to deliver them from the wicked and be set free and made worthy to go to heaven. Paradise was down, beneath the earth, not up, not in heaven. Jesus changed the game when he finished his work on earth. Things would never be the same again.
He said to the thief who was dying on the cross beside him, "Today you will be with me in paradise." Notice, he didn't say, Heaven." Man did not gain access until they attempted to kill Jesus, to get rid of him. They could destroy his body but not his soul.... or his spirit.
Christ's work after death was to go to paradise to resurrect those souls and give them the freedom and rights to the kingdom of heaven. Paradise and Hell shared space just like good and evil share space in this world but excluding interactions. Christ became that last day, that they had so long awaited. People were resurrected that day and came up above the earth with a new life. They experienced the resurrection as a person who caused the event.
Jesus the Christ defeated death, hell, and the grave, then went back up to the earth and entered his old dead body as the Resurrection! God's glory which is in the resurrection, glorified that fleshly body when he entered in and it became new and improved, a body without the curse from sin...having no limits.
Jesus told his followers before he was executed that he would not leave them comfortless (meaning, you will not die and go to paradise waiting on the resurrection as an event to raise you from the dead.) You won't have to wait to see me after death, "I Am with you always." The introduction of a newly afforded kingdom right, is to be with the Lord immediately after death.
Jesus said, "I tell you; I will not drink from this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom." So, is Jesus waiting on the apostles or the apostles waiting on Jesus to have that drink and fellowship in heaven? Are they waiting in their graves for a trumpet or Jesus?
As believers why are we looking up to the sky waiting on Jesus?
The same Christ that was raised from the dead is alive and living in us! We are resurrected while we live. We have the resurrection living inside us. How can we have Christ in us and not the resurrection, when Jesus is the Resurrection?
"In Adam we all die, but through Christ we live." We have a choice.
Jesus the Christ is the first to embody the new glorified body. When Jesus showed himself as the Resurrection, he was not even recognized by his own people. He walked through walls, sat down, and ate what his followers were eating and fellowshipped with them on several occasions.
In this book you will find several infallible proofs concerning our Lord which are scripturally based, and witness accounted.
Included are my own personal experiences of leaving my physical body and going to a place only prepared by God. After my personal experiences, no one can ever convince me otherwise. My life has suffered because of what I witnessed and experienced. I've lost many relationships because people would rather believe the lies than the truth.
Whether you believe or not, there is life after this life. Unfortunately, many do not have the opportunity to come back to tell it and even when they do, most people will not believe them.
Heaven is Real! Life after death is REAL! So is RESURRECTION.
