I am left more confused than ever. You could have eliminated the first half of this video and been more specific in the last. The whole concept is fairly nebulous to me. I thin. Maybe we should just focus on serving God because He is our Father, and stop concerning our selves with worldly concepts like rewards. It seems none of us have it right anyway.

If we were present with the Lord at death, there would be no reason for the rapture. In 2 Thes, it states that when the trumpet sounds, those who are dead in Christ shall rise first and those that remain and are alive will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord. Another scripture states that in Roman's 14:12, we will all give an account for every word we spoke on Judgment Day. For us to be present at death, God would have to judge each of us continually as we die. Lazarus was asleep, the centurion solders daughter was asleep, and the Bible states those in the Old Testament are asleep. They did not know Jesus and, therefore, could not be born again as required in order to dwell with God and be saved from death. In light of your experience, it's my thought that satan comes as an angel of light and shows the glory of God and His splendor so he can trick us into giving up our will to not remain and continue to do Gods⁶ work. I'm not saying one sins at that moment ,just the opposite. Their will to be with God at that moment is greater than their ability to see the deciever, and they choose not to continue here on earth. Satan roams around like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour .🙏

@@michele9890 I am only speaking from experience. In May 2021 I died on the side of I35 in Texas. I left my body and went to a place called the valley of the shadow of death. Christ was there beside me. He was huge, but I could only see his foot and the hem of his robe. The light of his glory was so bright that it penetrated into the face of the rock like it was transparent, but it was like granite. Lord Jesus Christ was there. Afterwards I was baptized and started reading the scriptures and it was then that I understood what had happened, or at least some of what I was shown. My aunt received a word from a sister in Christ that confirmed as much. Christ said, "I was there. He is covered." It took me some time to come to understanding, but I offer you the truth. I was overdosed on drugs and knew I was dying. I prayed to Jesus on the pavement behind my car. I did not "deserve" his grace and mercy, yet he answered that prayer. He really is with us, praise God.

Unfortunately it does not say this in scripture and the use of “is to be” completely changes the meaning of the verse. The scripture says “I am willing that I would be absent from the body and be present with the Lord”. As you can see, this is Paul’s desire but it was not going to happen until the resurrection

Yes, our sins have been forgiven. In fact, every person's sins, since the resurrection, have been forgiven. However, that forgiveness isn't "credited", if I may use that word, until/unless a person believes it. For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one *that believeth;* to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. Romans 1:16 (KJV) 4 Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt. 5 But to him that worketh not, but *believeth* on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. Romans 4:4-5 (KJV) 24 But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, *if we believe* on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead; 25 Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification. Romans 4:24-25 (KJV) *Look carefully at the sequence* 13 In whom ye also trusted, *after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of* *your salvation:* in whom also *after that ye believed,* ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, 14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory. Ephesians 1:13-14 (KJV) *The gospel that will save you* 1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you *the gospel* which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 *By which also ye are saved,* if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that *Christ* *died for our sins* according to the scriptures; 4 *And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day* according to the scriptures: 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 (KJV)

Jesus describes death as sleep and this makes perfect sense when we examine the scriptures that speak of the resurrection as those who are awoken to hear the voice of the Master and are raised from the dead. 1 Corinthians 15 speaks of being given new bodies which are immortal. This doesn't actually happen until Christ returns at the last trumpet. So while Christ is away, we sleep in death until one day when he returns to establish his kingdom.

My Tatay(Dad) died on March 8 2024. Pain and comfort at the same time knowing he's with Jesus 0 pain.

The scripture says when you are dead you are asleep and knows nothing, even Jesus said that Lazarus was asleep when referring to him being dead. In Revelation we also see that when Jesus come, those that have died in Christ will be raised first and then the others, thus it is clear that when we die.... we are NOT with Jesus. The day Jesus died on the cross, he said to the criminal next to him "I assure you today.... you will be with me in paradise", meaning eventually. Jesus was not even in paradise that day. The scriptures declares over and over that if you die, you are asleep and the soul stops existing. How can anyone go to heaven or hell anyway before being judged at the end?

I never truly understood heaven until listening to this podcast. My parents still believe in the “kingdom in the clouds” thing. I don’t care what happens to me when I die, I just hope that I am with Jesus and Our Lord. I’d be fine with simply not existing at all, or being in an eternal sleep.

I might crave a melting away of my individuality into permanent sleep, or non-existence in God. But Yahweh wishes to preserve what he loves and what he made me to be… and can I accept that too? It’s worth meditating on.

This was awesome! I also was raised thinking that a disembodied life in a non physical heaven is our true eternal life. This makes it hard to truly love and delight in this world, just as God loved this world enough to sacrifice his son. Your wonderful talks have liberated me from that platonic influence, illuminating that the Bible never rejects physical existence, and instead holds it as essential to our eternal being, and that’s why salvation is needed, to eventually grant us a resurrected (eternal) physical body, and a physical earth that is of the same nature as Jesus’ resurrected body. Thank you, this is a huge paradigm shift. I feel like I’m reconnected to Adam, who inherited this earth in order to serve God’s plan for it.

Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation. 46 While he yet talked to the people, behold, his mother and his brethren stood without, desiring to speak with him.

Wow im so excited to dig into this 12 part study!

This was very enlightening. For a minute, I thought Tim was trying to convey that there is no "heaven" or spiritual or physical existence outside of here/now, but that's not at all how I interpreted this towards the end, to my relief. What I take away from this discussion is that the authors are trying to tell us "To be apart from the body is to be with Jesus" more in a literal sense as an in between state of current creation and new creation, and that it's somewhat vague in exactly what that looks like.

I was always confused about the mansion in heaven since a mansion is a worldly desire. Something like that would not appeal to a spiritual being. I do not care if the streets are paved with gold etc.....I would just be happy being in heaven closer to God. 😁

I love this topic. It's very good. Not many pastors or churches or Bible study really zone in on the paradoxes within Paul and John talking about heaven and earth and how Jesus describes the two becoming one as it was from in the beginning. If you understand that God created the heavens and the earth they were one. So it's a returning from what I'm perceiving and what I'm understanding of what was from in the beginning. This is beauty within truth and truth within beauty of how God is restoring what was from the beginning but totally changing it or returning it or re-establishing what is to come? I hope that I am perceiving this correctly. If not, please reply back. I love your project and may God continue and bless you on your journey of spreading the truth of his word. Amen

I haven’t listened yet, so this is a little premature, but I concur with you, earth is bound by time and space, heaven is “in” eternity. When you die, you leave time and enter eternity. The eons that continue to pass in time are not experienced by the dead, we all land up at the same place, instantaneously: the Great Judgement.

When JESUS was transfigured in front of John, James, and Peter, he gave a glimpse of the dimension on which HE "dwells," on/at which we will join HIM, and into which HE has both provided the Way and HE IS The Way. Only those who have Faith in and follow GOD's Way of LOVE will be in that dimension with HIM.

Great topic, going to listen again from the top 😆 too many mind-trails on my part, especially with all that scripture. I really appreciate it, it helps me memorize better in context of conversation like this. I'm excited bc recently I've been focusing on everything John wrote :)

I hope someone can answer a question regarding when Jesus transfigured on the mount and was talking to Moses and Elijah (Mat 17:1-6). In what state were Moses and Elijah? Disembodied state like the spirit of Samuel who was summoned by the Witch of Endor? Or did they have a glorified body that Jesus had after his resurrection?

@upwardjourney2055

Ай бұрын

Great question. Moses and Elijah were in a glorified body when they appeared with Jesus on the mount. If we trace the Bible narrative, we know there are two "ends" for a person before going to heaven: (1) like Elijah and Enoch, to be transported alive to heaven; (2) like Moses, to be resurrected from the dead [Jude said that Moses' body was claimed by Satan, but was rebuked by the word of the Lord; if Moses appeared to Jesus, that meant that Moses was resurrected.] That said, Moses and Elijah appeared in their glorified forms on the mount. As for the spirit "of Samuel," the witch said she saw the spirit coming up "from the earth." That's definitely not Samuel, but an impersonation by the devil.

Love this❤ Could you please do a video explaining what the bible says about the dead in Ecclesiastes

Does that mean they are unconscious after death?? The scripture talks about the rich man and Lazarus who immediately was in flames after death who seemed to have knowledge of where he was and had consciousness.

My church kow often says," As we bring heaven to earth." It wasnt taught to me in the Baptist church or the 3 Ive been a member. I even asked 4 strong Christian Baptist still friends and they were clueless about just that phrase... still. All but 1...

Great video, but not sure if I agree with all of it. The Bible seems to describe death as a sleep, including Jesus and Paul. I would think that your spirit lays dormant within your body, instead of having an out of body experience (which would explain The Witch of Endor story). And that Jesus taking you by himself will come when he returns and we rise from death restored. But I do agree that He might've tried to comfort them rather then tell them about the afterlife.

@bibleproject, can you create a video explaining Christian Nationalism in the U.S.? So much divisive talk is turning many Christian’s away from the church in my community as it can be so toxic and anti what I know about Jesus. I’d love for you all to dive into it.

48:30 this is sooooo deep. I think this is always what confused me. What happens when I die, before Christ returns again and who is here with me until then. Now I see it much better. Christ died and sent the Holy Spirit to guard and guide us until he comes back to unite heaven and earth together and Jesus is still with us along with the Holy Spirit still with us and Jesus is what connects us with God even though we are not with God we care connect through Jesus and the Holy Spirit and a whole new world is to come and we will all be untied...? Right?

Please add a link to the 'book'--I looked on the website and couldn't find it. Thanks!
