I guess he is paying attention. I'm still a little confused but this will definitely help me get there.

The rich man also died and was buried. 23 And being in torments in Hades, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom."<br /><br />Abraham was not in flames, but on the other side of a great casm.<br /><br />26-"26 And besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, so that those who want to pass from here to you cannot, nor can those from there pass to us."<br /><br />I have come to believe that when Jesus decended into hell after His death, He went there not only to take the keys of death and Hades away from Satan, but to lead the captives out in triumph. We know Moses and Elijah appeared WITH Jesus on the mount of transfiguration. I DO NOT believe they rose up from hell to be with Him there on the mountain before the disciples, but they came down from heaven.<br /><br />Just my own beliefs. I can't prove it with scripture.JD Siegelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-44465610034061939932012-10-31T01:00:44.298-04:002012-10-31T01:00:44.298-04:00David,

He descended into death to retrieve those who died in faith before Jesus came to the earth. These saints were held in captivity (death), until He took them captive and returned to heaven with them.<br /><br />So, those who died in faith before Jesus came to earth, are now in heaven with Him.<br /><br />I hope I have not misinterpreted this, but this is how I understand it.<br /><br />Our children ask wonderful questions, too; and it causes us to dig for the answer! :)<br /><br />From "M" in the Garnet state....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-42893123553242744772012-10-30T23:23:09.476-04:002012-10-30T23:23:09.476-04:00but werent the old testament people under the law ...but werent the old testament people under the law and not grace?

Saints will receive their glorified bodies at the end of the Tribulation, along with the Tribulation Saints, which is another distinct difference between the Church and the OT Saints. But the central point is what you say - Those before the time of Christ were still looking for a needed messiah - they couldn't help it if He hadn't come yet!

Those before Christ were saved by their faith just like we are. Their faith was in god but Christ sacrifice also pays for their sin.<br /><br />The snow in our town was only 4-5 inches but enough to close schools. The bordering county received 22 inches and the state has 100K people without power.

Then he asked do they or did they get a chance to go to heaven. I was stunned. I don't know the answer. Any scripture you could point me to would be appreciated.Davidnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-50097186649341956212012-10-30T20:40:19.507-04:002012-10-30T20:40:19.507-04:00Nate, how about JFK?

We all know Europe is going to have Ten Kings . This whole Eurocrises has offered a bunch of different scenerios on how its going to happen . "Big Crises equals big change" and "Never letter a crises go to waste" <br /><br />I don't think Blair fits the Anti-christ role . He's not that stern looking . He's married so he isn't (gay or unattracted to females) and he lacks a head wound that has healed). He does however work for Goldman Sachs so he could be the AC (lol) .<br /><br />Does anybody know the scripture about the LION (England) in prophecy ?<br /><br />And Jd that is strange . Its also strange to think that on one coast were having 7.7 / 6.4 Earthquakes and on the other a Megastorm .<br /><br />God Bless<br />Nate<br /><br />Ps WV hang in there just saw the footage .
