Bible Question: I am Baptist and I have been taught that when you die, you go to Heaven or Hell. My sister-in-law says that everyone goes at Rapture. Does the bible support the soul leaving your body and going straight to Heaven or Hell? |
Bible Answer: Hebrews 9:27 Plainly states that after death comes judgement. The word "Rapture" is often understood from the Dispensational Premillennialism understanding of Scripture. There three other viewpoints to the end times besides what it apears your sister may believe in. I believe Scripture teaches that those who die without Christ Jesus are in Hades until the Great White Throne Judgement, and then cast into eterinal punishment forever and ever. Those who die in Christ are in Paridise, with the Lord, until The Lord Jesus returns with His Angels and those who are in Paradise. Blessings. justme |
