where we go after dead? - Part 1

Firstly, sorry to deming, told him i'll do it last night, but i didn't get the research done yet.

so the question is where do people go after they die? this is a challenging question.

first things first, where do Christians, those who have Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour go to?

see Luke 23 and verse 43: the righteous dead will be with Jesus in Paradise.

read luke 16:19-31 on the rich man and lazarus.

the rich man went down to a place of suffering and across a great chasm (gap) he saw lazarus with Abraham, in a place of comfort. But take note (this is very important), Luke 16 was before Jesus died on the Cross and descended into the lower regions (Hades) and ascended to our Heavenly Father's side in Heaven.

so take note of these terms.

Heaven
Hell
Hades
Paradise (before Jesus sacrifice)
Paradise (After Jesus' sacrifice)

by the way, Hell was created to punish the devil and his angels, not for humans. all the dead go to this place in the bible called Hades or Sheol, as in the story in Luke 16. but after the final judgement of Jesus Christ as in the book of Revelation, those unbeliever who refuse Christ will go with the devil to the final place of judgement; hell.

The most important thing is to realise that Hell is real, but the Love of Chris has set us free from this punishment.....BUT! how about our friends and family out there? keep praying friends, Pray Until Something Happens = (P.U.S.H)
