Subject: Taken Where? |
Bible Note: I was too quick to hit submit without rereading what I wrote. Let me correct it. Sorry! I believe we all will admit the Elijah was an exception rather than the rule. If Old Testament Saints in fact went to heaven as suggested here then they didn't need Jesus I gain entrance into God's presence. Why would Jesus invent a concept like Luke 16, if this was new to the listener? If the concept was incorrect, why would Jesus tell this story without issuing a correction? God is not the God of confusion. If the concept of Hades did not exist before Luke 16 God would not have added confusion by introducing it. If the concept of Hades did exist and was incorrect again God not being a God of confusion would have corrected it. While I greatly respect Ryie I think scripture here says he is mistakenly using an exception to try to prove his misconception of Hades. |
