Bible Question (short): did we pre-exist as a spirit being? |
Question (full): I am facilitating a Bible study (Gospel of John)at my work place with several new Christians and a few mature Chrisitans. Yesterday one of the "newbies" was discussing that her son was afraid for his grandparents dying. One of the "mature" Chrisitans told her to explain it to him this way - that we are spiritual beings in heaven and then we are born into a fleshly body and then when we die we go back to heaven to be in the spirit. I asked her to show me the scriptures that back that up - but she hasn't come through yet. So - what do I tell my new Christians about this - it has them confused. I just asked her to send me the verse - but in the future to just stick with the simple stuff for the others. I believe we all agree on the most important issues. Please help! Thanks. |
