I, too, do not study the Apochrypha for the same reasons you mentioned. I wasn't encouraging anyone to study it, I was just mentioning that historically, it was included in the original KJV up until the 1700's. That's all.
Ecclesiastes 12:7 - Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.
These verse describe not only our being born again in Salvation but equally that God gives those washed in His Blood an eternity with him (Heaven...like or lump it)
John 5:24 - Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
Romans 6:23 - For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
There are two sides of the grave after death: From the unsaved there's Hell and the save eternal life with God
Christ warns...
Matthew 10:28 - And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
So, I wouldn't necessarily say Spirit world as the Holy Spirit lives in every born again believer. So, we know in part of that already. The body can be injured, hurt and pass away. But the soul cannot die and has only one of two destinies after death. That's why Salvation is so very important:
John 3:16-18
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God."
This could be compared in a way to confessing with our mouth that Jesus Christ is Lord to be saved. ( Romans 10:9-10). Believing in the heart is a necessary condition; lest we simply have a mantra that is some intellectual acceptance of Christ as Lord; who He actually is to every person; whether or not they have been given a new heart post conversion or are still unregenerate.
The clear example is the thief at the cross. ( Luke 23:39-43). He didn't have time to be baptized; but clearly Christ was going to be with him in paradise. Therefore; baptism is as an outer confession; it demonstrates our public affirmation of becoming part of the Body and Christ and symbolizes in some ways the death; burial and resurrection in our own lives mirroring that of Christ; our head. It is clearly a command; hence it should be done ASAP after conversion. One could say that if a person does NOT seek to be baptized and goes on a long time without it it is likely there is no evidence that they have truly repented. If we love Him; we obey His commands. ( John 14:15). Obviously we should test ourselves to see if we are in the faith ( 2 Cor. 13:5-6); or as a Pastor see if there are any fruits indicating true repentance ( Matthew 3:8; etal). Matthew 5:19 shows if we break the least of the commandments and teach others to do so we shall be least in the Kingdom of Heaven. That should be a sobering warning of losing rewards for disobedience for elders and laypersons alike
.....We must birth a new inner man which is the H.G...Our new heart and new spirit..That Child of Promise,..Unless ya receive the Kingdom of God as a lil Child you will in no wise enter there in...The Kingdom does not come till the woman births the Children which is the H.G. ( spirits )....the CHILDREN OF PROMISE... Rev 12 : 10 kjv.. which is the Spirit of truth that is gonna reprove the world of sin and judgement and righteousness etc
....1 st John 3 : 8...He that committeth sin is of the Devil...For the Devil sinneth from the beginnng...For this purpose was the son of God manifested that he might destroy the works of the devil...Its the H.G. that is born in us via the seed of Jesus that cannot sin..Thats y he is saying that which is born of the spirit is spirit..As the good SEED is the living word which is spirit thus the Child is spirit that is gonna be born in us via his seed...The Israel of God are Spirits that are gona be born in us which are the babes and suckling he speaks of....Thats y the woman is giving birth to the Children..A lil one shall become a 1000 and a small one a strong nation I THE LORD WILL HASTEN IT IN ITS TIME....Thus an Israel of God in on the horizon...Thus the H.G. is the Spirit of the lord that is gonna be poured out on all flesh.... Joel 2 : 28....In Adam we ALL die but in Christ we will All live..b/c of his blood. GBU.
God Bless!
I've been chased off public sidewalks by Christian Scientists many times. I usually said, someday you're going to miss me and wish there was a real Christian to pray with.
**The Harvest is White, and there many people out there who don't know Matthew 24, Luke 21.**
And with all the signs of Jesus's soon return__we need to tell the truth.
I tell them next time they're on YouTube look up some disaster videos with RECENT DATES. The entire nation of China is being flooded and with earthquakes.
Iran is having mid to large earthquakes.
Afghanistan has had so many quakes they need food relief.
I watched one today about the shores of Florida washing away the beaches and front yards.
Global warming gets blamed for everything, when of a truth it is Jesus trying to get our attention that it's all going to burn!!
2 PETER 3:7-10
7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent HEAT, THE EARTH also and the works that are therein SHALL BE BURNED UP.
We have to hang on tight to Jesus and not let what's happening shake our FAITH. We need to read prophetic scriptures. We need to get involved.
Greg Laurie of Harvest Church teaches on prophesy. I know some of you hate YouTube, but many good preachers are on there. Facebook is like the Wild West, and Twitter is kinda abusive.

Get a AM/FM Radio from Walmart. There's lots of ministry
Programs on 24/7.
Concerning ancient idols of the gods: Moloch or Molech. Videos on YouTube.
Modern Abortion is many people with a shared IDEAOLOGY: My Body My Choice. They take their violence publically to the streets and make a public spectacle of themselves; legislating for unlimited murder of unborn defenseless babies.
It's generally combined with gay liberation as well.
Well this is my comment on that: Abortion is not a form of BIRTH CONTROL. I see no sign of intelligence in their riots, rants, violence, breaking constitutional laws concerning registered, peaceful assembly; outside of private homes with small children inside. Against entire neighborhoods?!?
There is no sense of impropriety. Seriously, look at Pelosi's face. No high paid make up artist can spackle out the lines of pure hatred off her face. She might've sold her soul to something real dark. The LOVE OF MONEY is the root of all evil. She needs those Pro choice people to default back to. She thinks she's popular.
The Good News is, all those aborted babies are in heaven with God. Beautiful bodies. Happy. No memories about what was done to them. They are loved.

I'm an evangelist. I choose to keep my focus on what Jesus did and what He said to be doing (Go Ye). That impresses me. Praying in a War Room with others, helps the spiritually bound, be freed. The Gospel is a Person, and He said to me and many others, Follow Me.
Apocrypha isn't going to help unbelievers to give their hearts to Jesus. I'm not going to change my mind
I found history about it on YouTube, under the names of the false god the babies and children were sacrificed to.
Those ancient names are Moloch or Molech. You can read the history and see the paintings; which are hideous. The babies thrown into ovens, burned alive by satanic "priests".
The difference is now women feel empowered by "My Body, My Choice". Many stopped taking birth control when it was thought to cause strokes, physical problems, migraines, etc.
Abortion became the New Birth Control. They choose to not think that multiple abortions cause irreparable scar tissue in a womb.
Also it became the mantra for gay and lesbian groups.
Then we have to hear how difficult it is, they cannot conceive a baby naturally now.
We know that the innocent unborn souls were taken to heaven, to live there eternally with God. Whether they ever meet their mothers is another matter. Let's find peace in that. It's in Gods capable hands.

Examples:
1 John 2:16
Mark 7:21-23
1 Corinthians 6:9-10
Galatians 5:19-21
etc.
The list should be self-explanatory and not require commentary.
You will not find a list of "seven deadly sins" delineated comprehensively in the Scripture; if I am not mistaken that is a fabrication of the Catholic church, if not an abstract "spiritual" principle present in pagan sects predating it.
What you will find in Scripture is that all sin, outside of Christ, is deadly... All sin can also effectively be traced back to one single sin, namely, the pride of man. Pride deceives us. Pride keeps us from beleiving God's word.
Conversely, all "righteousness" can be traced back to faith, and faith to humility. It was not without note that when Jesus' disciples asked him to increase their faith, he effectively responded to them, "increase *your* humility."
