1 | Where have all the dead prophets gone? | Luke 16:19 | wist ye not | 11094 | ||
Bible, King James Version -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Luke.16 Verses 19 to 31 [19] There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day: [20] And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores, [21] And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. [22] And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; [23] And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. [24] And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. [25] But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented. [26] And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence. [27] Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house: [28] For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment. [29] Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them. [30] And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent. [31] And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead. From this you can see as Jesus said that Abraham is in Heaven as is this Lazarus. |

Luke 16:19-31 is a parable that Jesus used for illustrative purposes; John 3:13 is an emphatic statement of Jesus which means it is a fact. How do you explain this? | ||||||

John Hermes, they are not in heaven in the parable. Abraham's side (bosom) and Paradise (Luke 23:43) are not the same as heaven. Some take these two places figuretively. Steve |

4 | Where is Paradise of Luke 23:43? | Luke 16:19 | John Hermes | 11334 | ||
Steve, thanks for your attention. So where is Abraham in the parable? More importantly, isn't Paradise in heaven where God the Father lives? But then the Luke 23:43 verse was said by Jesus later than the John 3:13 verse, implying that after that time, righteous people have gone to heaven after their death. Is this correct? | ||||||
5 | Where is Paradise of Luke 23:43? | Luke 16:19 | EdB | 11406 | ||
John Let me try to explain this. Before Jesus bought our freedom on the cross with His blood the righteous when they died went to paradise or Abraham bosom. Hence we see them there in the parable of Luke 16. When Jesus was talking to the thief on the cross Jesus said today you will be with me in paradise. After Jesus died he went to Abraham’s bosom and took the righteous and lead them to heaven. Ephes. 4:8 Therefore it says, "When He ascended on high, He led CAPTIVE A HOST OF CAPTIVES, And He gave gifts to men." So what he was telling the thief today you are going to be with Me. First we are going to make a stop in paradise and pick up everyone else then on to heaven. Let me assure you of one thing wherever Jesus is at is paradise! Be blessed and be a blessing |
