Bible Question:
Mark:10:28: Then Peter began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and have followed thee. Mark:10:29: And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel's, Mark:10:30: But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life. When would you have more mothers? a hundredfold of them? When and where would you have brothers - a hundredfold of them? And on top of that persecutions. Obviously not in heaven. Does this verse confirm reincarnation? How could you have a hundredfold of mothers if not thru rebirth or reincarnation? |
Bible Answer: Jesus is speaking of the members of the family of God. Notice that he says "in this time." He lists the benefits of forsaking all things for Christ. Notice also that persecution accompanies this. In addition, he speaks of eternal life in the world to come. So what Jesus speaks of first is what happens in this life, and then addresses the glorious future in heaven for those who trust in Jesus Christ. The Bible clearly teaches that it appointed for us to die only one time (Hebrews 9:27). Therefore, Christians need to understand that Jesus was not suggesting that we will live hundreds of times, but rather that we will have spiritual relatives in this life--the church. --Joe! |
