1 Thessalonians 4:16 states "the dead in Christ shall rise first..." So here is my question...when a Christian dies, where do we go? Why are we waiting on our bodies to be resurrected before we go to heaven?
The "dead" are in another dimension that human eyes can not see...just like the "kingdom' of God when Jesus Christ returns after "satan's reign," humanity that have passed away from the beginning would be "raised to heaven" first. In this realm what I call holding place there are two sides called the "gulf," saved souls on one side the other side those who aren't. Ask Holy Sprint for understand
Arthur, check 1Cor 15:40-54. Two bodies Flesh, corruptible Spiritual, incorruptible . V44 "raised in a spiritual body" v52 " in the twinkling of an eye" we are transfigured into our spiritual body are in Paradise until after the White Throne judgement. Flesh is NEVER resurrected v50. 1st resurrection is flesh death-2nd. is the judgement of the White Throne final judgement.
My interpretation is that our bodies and souls after death will be in sleep mode awaiting judgment after Jesus returns. I do not see Bible evidence that Christians' souls go to heaven then go back to our bodies on earth then go back to heaven. 2 Corinthians 5:10Matthew 25:31-46.
When a Christian dies, James 2:26 the body returns to dust from where it came. Gen 3:19 The soul and spirit go immediately to be with Christ in Heaven to await the resurrection of the body. 2 Cor 5:8 In the resurrection our body, soul and spirit are reunited in a body like Christ has - a glorious body that will never die. I Cor 15:44 Read Chapter Phil 3:21 King James Version
the soul immediately go to heaven, the body remained buried and actually decay. however in the rapture a.k.a first resurrection the body will be raised but changed and be immortal and will fuse with the soul...
Ace, where in the Bible do you find anything about "rapture"? I have looked I found Eze 13:18-21 that reads, God talking I am against your pillows false teaching , wherewith ye there hunt the souls to make them fly. don't teach my children to fly to save their souls .
