    Refuting soul sleep, aka dirt nap doctrine

    The souls in heaven now are not resurrected, they have no bodies - when Jesus comes to resurrect the dead in 1 Thessalonians 4, He brings those souls WITH Him, to be reunited with their resurrected and immortal bodies. This is what I posted about that earlier: In Thessalonians 4, Jesus comes...

    True facts about repentance

    Jesus said He came to call sinners unto repentance, and warned that unless we repent, we shall perish: Luk 5:30 And the Pharisees and their scribes grumbled at his disciples, saying, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?” Luk 5:31 And Jesus answered them, “Those who are...

    Refuting soul sleep, aka dirt nap doctrine

    1. Paul stated that our body is just the house we leave at death of the body. 2. Scripture after scripture shows the soul leaving the body at death, confirming point 1. 3. Scripture shows the souls that leave the home of their body at death, appearing in heaven and talking, confirming points 1...

    Revival is the Baptism By fire

    Peter was never in the Roman Catholic Church, as the Bible proves. The church was never founded on Peter and if it were, the RCC isn’t it. All congregations that follow the Bible accurately are part of the church of Christ.

    John 14:6 and Context

    Jesus gave His earthly life, died AND WAS BODILY RESURRECTED and scriptures are unequivocal that Jesus rose bodily, so that bogus claim won’t wash. It’s preposterous and ludicrous and biblically illiterate to deny the undeniable.

    Refuting soul sleep, aka dirt nap doctrine

    Bombastic: adjective high-sounding but with little meaning; inflated. "bombastic rhetoric" My comment was biblical truth, not bombastic - however, cognitive dissonance is evident in your responses to biblical truth.

    Refuting soul sleep, aka dirt nap doctrine

    You present yoo much error to try to correct - I’m not going to spend hours refuting you when the OP is irrefutable. You use scripture true of resurrected saints to try to refute the fact that souls go to heaven without bodies, awaiting the resurrection of their bodies at the second coming of...

    Refuting soul sleep, aka dirt nap doctrine

    The temple in heaven is a copy of the Levitical altar, which was raised, and the blood of the sacrifices ran down under the altar. This altar is mentioned in Rev 8:3 as being before the throne of God. 3 And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given...

    Was Paul a false prophet?

    From what I’ve seen, instead of just ignoring whole epistles (such as Galatians 4:21-31 about the Sinai covenant being bondage, and 2 Corinthians 3 that says the ten commands are the letter that kills and the ministry of condemnation, as those sabbath keepers such as the SDA do), the Paul...

    Refuting soul sleep, aka dirt nap doctrine

    Yes there are scriptures that talk about the state of dead bodies being one of sleeping, and other scriptures showing that the soul leaves the body at death. But there are not contradictory scriptures both proving and disproving soul seep. Maranatha

    Ecc 12:7 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.

    Refuting soul sleep, aka dirt nap doctrine

    It’s absolutely refuted by revelation 6 where John sees souls who were killed on earth, asking God how long it will be before those who killed them are punished. John the revelator was caught up into heaven, and saw SOULS there, asking how long until those who killed them are punished. Rev...

    Refuting soul sleep, aka dirt nap doctrine

    Agreed. Before Jesus came, there were two compartments in the heart of the earth at that time. One compartment, called Abraham’s bosom, aka paradise, held all of the righteous dead, because no soul could go to heaven until Messiah atoned for sins. It was separated by a great chasm from the...

    Refuting soul sleep, aka dirt nap doctrine

    Besides 2 Corinthians 5 which destroys soul sleep, Revelation 6 puts the final nail in its coffin by showing souls in heaven talking to God and asking how long until those who killed them are punished: Their bodies are dead, they were killed on earth, yet they are in heaven having a...

    Refuting soul sleep, aka dirt nap doctrine

    That won’t wash, because what Paul says falsifies completely the claim that the soul sleeps with the dead body in the dirt, since he makes it clear that, far from the soul being connected with the body so that both snooze in the dirt until the resurrection, the body is just a house - that just...

    Refuting soul sleep, aka dirt nap doctrine

    Souls go to heaven now, to be with Jesus per 2 Corinthians 5, as seen in heaven by John. John the revelator was caught up into heaven, and saw SOULS there. Rev 6:9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the SOULS of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the...

    Refuting soul sleep, aka dirt nap doctrine

    Same word is used for eternal and everlasting in the Greek - thus if torment is not everlasting, then there is no eternal life.

    What happens to Christians that die while hating another?

    The answer is if you hate someone you’re a murderer at heart and will split hell wide open at death. 1Jn 3:14 We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death. 1Jn 3:15 Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer...
