Hi everyone, a scripture came to me in church tonight and I felt like I needed to do a study on it, I do not understand what it means, I think a teaching may be coming. Can anyone here explain it to me? It is Luke 20:38-

"For He is not the God of the dead but of the living, for all live to Him.”

I have searched for the meaning on the internet and I am not able to get a clear answer, any ideas? Thanks!
Everything that exists is of God. We are living souls because God's breath made dust to become human form in the beginning. And that is still the case.

Which is why God tells us ,when we die the flesh returns to dust. While God's breath,our soul,returns to our creator.

"Separation from God." Is an illusion religion fosters upon us.

It says,
Now he is not the God of the the dead.
But that of the living.
For all live to him.

Now Jesus was answering the Sadducees. regarding Marrages, Well they who have gone to Heaven do not Marry. for they are equal to Angels. Sons of God.

Salvation is nothing to do with the dead ? has it ! but that of the Faithfull that are worthy ! for all such are alive in him !

This world is full of deceptions and delusions ! such people are Lost !

But for the Found ! for they are the Body of Christ as he is the Head Their of !

Arent we born dead in our sins first?

Maybe that's the meaning of that passage. Jesus is not the Lord of the dead.
Because when did in our sins we don't know what it means to know Jesus.

One must be born again ! period !

How can Salvation be in any regards the dead !
Jesus is Salvation !
If one does not understand that Christ Jesus must be first and foremost in your life, then one is not Saved ! you must abide in his Lordship because that is Salvation !

When one is Saved one is not of this world ! but of the Kingdom of God ! one is still living in this world tho, Behold I send you out amougn the Wolves !

Christ Jesus is here ! the doorway is open, you need only enter ! that's the Key for all of People ! but for this world that is full of deceptions and delusions ! Temptations that lead the carnal astray, because such are not worthy and gutless boys for such are never men or women of Virtue in fact but have a Yellow streak runing down their back. just as that of a Rat, a self oppotunist ! and one who is easy offended, I have found. They will never thank anyone for calling them out, in regards God. for such are only out for self intrest 24/7.
