The State of the Dead - First Century Christianity

The State of the dead is a doctrine that blesses us to understand the bible from Genesis to Revelation and differentiate paganism from truth.

matthew 10 ( BSB )
- 28Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Instead, fear the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell. -

isaiah 10 (nasb)
- 17And the Light of Israel will become a fire and Israel’s Holy One a flame,
And it will burn and devour his thorns and his briars in a single day.
18And He will destroy the glory of his forest and of his fruitful garden, both soul and body,
And it will be as when a sick person wastes away.
19And the rest of the trees of his forest will be so small in number
That a child could write them down. -

as you mentioned regarding daniel being quoted but the reference not being connected, so it is in this case.
because when the NT refers to 'scripture' it encompasses Torah and Tanahk, i reckon the sadducees were wrong to limit themselves to Torah only.
and i wonder how much of what is said in the NT is NOT to be found in the old 'scripture'.

back to death.
when i read, this is what i understand -
the living being i am is composed of inanimate dust (flesh) animated by the breath (soul) of the Spirit, Ruach. genesis says this.

through sin 'i' will die, ie come under the jurisdiction of death.
that portion of the breath of Ruach that is 'my soul' leaves the flesh, which returns to dust. i am no longer a composite living being.
my soul 'sleeps' under death's jurisdiction. it has not ceased to exist, which is how death is normally thought of to be.

now comes that resurrection with two paths, where my soul gets new 'flesh'.
and there's a path which now destroys both body and soul.
that destruction is what we normally understand death to be.
so no, not everybody dies, and everybody who dies (gets destroyed) actually does so on the same day...
how many get destroyed( apart from the five mentioned directly in revelation, one of which is death itself) is also not actually made clear, i hope as few as possible.

and we haven't even started talking about our spirit yet, which is totally distinct to our soul, but that's another story, linked to only one path.

071725 / 21st day of the 4th month 5786
WORD FOR TODAY “is your spirit hungry or full?”: Mat 4:4 But He answered and said, "It is written, 'MAN SHALL NOT LIVE ON BREAD ALONE, BUT ON EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDS OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD.'"

WISDOM FOR TODAY: Pro 27:15 A constant dripping on a day of steady rain And a contentious woman are alike; Pro 27:16 He who would restrain her restrains the wind, And grasps oil with his right hand.

My wife and I celebrated our anniversary on Wednesday. I stayed single for a long time before we married and I prayed to God that if he would allow me to remarry that it would be within his will. I had counseled with a pastor about it a while back and also with a brother in the Lord. God would not let me remarry unless it was right. I also knew it had to be an equal yolk. My situation allowed me to remarry and my wife's situation allowed her to remarry. Every relationship has speed bumps. My wife and I are no different. But we've come a long ways and even just in the last year a lot of things have improved. Our relationship is flourishing and everything along the way shows that God put us together and blessed this.

“Yes sir, no sir, please and thank you” are simple and easy words that mean a great deal. Growing up, I was taught there is no excuse for bad manners or not showing respect for others (especially those much older than I). Proverbs 20:29, “The glory of young men is their strength, and gray hair is the splendor of the old.” One exercise that everyone is able to do that builds the strength of our character is to shoe respect for others.

How did David respond after his sin of numbering the people?

#quiz #king #david

PS: Discussions are very welcome, but please do not give the answer away in your discussions.

Hint: 1 Chronicles 21

He denied wrongdoing

He blamed Joab

He confessed and asked for forgiveness

He hid the census results
