Death and Heaven - Life After Death

Death and Heaven - Life after Death -- Why all the interest? Combine events like September 11th with the demographic phenomenon of the Baby Boom generation reaching its 60s, and suddenly the reality of death from catastrophe and death from mere old age are upon us in a personal way.

So, it appears that more and more people are asking the same question that Job asked nearly 4,000 years ago in the Bible: "If a man dies, will he live again?" What could be a more fundamental question of life (and death)? Reincarnation theories are popular in Eastern religions as well as the many New Age variants. It seems people are comfortable with the idea of another chance to return to earth and figure things out or make things right. Some nihilist thinkers believe that death is the absolute end; but contrary to what many might think, most people believe that death is not the end. In some shape or form we go on.

When Jesus was talking with Martha about the death of Lazarus, her brother, He declared "I am the Resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die." Right here, Jesus started presenting the astonishing claim that there is life after death. Jesus then went the next step and brought Lazarus back to life after four days in a tomb. At that point, Jesus put everyone on notice that He would later overcome the grave Himself!

For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life (John 3:16).

For skeptics, the whole idea of heaven is just the product of fertile imaginations. For many others, the Biblical idea of heaven is too fanciful or fantastic. However, Christians can live their lives with bold hope, thanks to the evidence of history that establishes with convincing clarity how Jesus not only preceded us in death, but also came back from the dead and blazed the trail to heaven.

Life After Death: Proof?
Is there mathematical proof for life after death? No. But if you believe the life-changing evidence for God, Jesus and the Bible, then heaven is as much a concrete reality for you as the Lord in whom youve invested your absolute trust. Its not fantasy its the absolute life-changing hope that strengthens us and gives us peace.

"I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life." (1 John 5:12)

I always think that it's amusing that atheists demand material evidence of the supernatural, especially when they are in the minority.

It's as if a person with their eyes squeezed shut demanded that you put their hand on light so that they could experience it for themselves.

Great. So now we can rely on Socrates for scientific purposes. Honestly, if the reasoning in this clip is 'evidence', then we are a far cry from the truth on the matter. Ok, so now I have discovered that my broken CDs are still ok because their information doesn't die. They go to CD heaven. Their 'bodies' are broken, but their 'spirit' lives on.

@cmk1964 You're a douche. You can't just listen to him without judging him and value his opinion?

JESUS CHRIST WILL ANSWER ALL YOUR QUESTIONS...

IS YOUR NAME WRITTEN IN HIS BOOK OF LIFE?

[slayeralmighty]

The reason we try to disprove eternity, is because our minds our limited by our bodies so that we cannot try to fathom eternity without eventually panicing or going mad

[slayeralmighty]

Most of you guys believe absolute bullshit. The body is a time oriented container that reflects the spirit inside it. Thought and problem solving are two different things. Thoughts are personal ideas either inspirationally created or borrowed from another sourc originating from the heart (sentience). Thinking is rational and unrational reasoning or deduction supported by the matrix of the brain. In truth, life we know it, is like being in an artificial environment with creative laws and physics

[BIBLEisMARKofBEAST]

400 years of the Mark of the Beast. THE BIBLE IS THE MARK OF THE BEAST.

It keeps us under the curse of the law and it breaks the new covenant of God writing His laws in our hearts by His Spirit.

@FallofDarkness55 when/how does a Protozoa with no emotion evolve into something that loves its offspring?

[FallofDarkness55]

Thoughts, emotions, feelings, etc. are caused by electricity flowing through your body via your life force i.e. your heart! Your heart is essentially a battery powering your thoughts, emotions, feelings, etc. Your so-called "spirit" is a mixture of emotions/feelings which I dub as the "white emotion"! Your heavenly realm is nothing more than a mere thought controlled by science i.e. electricity.

@RighteousPaladin you're delusional!
