AMPLIFIED 2015 | John 13:33 "Little children, I am with you [only] a little longer. You will look for Me and, as I told the Jews, so I tell you now, 'Where I am going, you are not able to come.' [John 8:21] |
Bible Question (short): Where are the Bible heroes since death? |
Question (full): Ed, Three things on your writing: (1) John 13 is Jesus' farewell message to his own inner disciples, not the Jews in general. Jesus is saying not only the Jews but you either cannot come to the Heaven. (2) "come" is not the same as "follow." Come refers to a place but follow, a path. (3) You argue as soon as believers die they go to God. But what do you think John 1:18 No man has ever seen God at any time? I wonder what happened to Abraham, Enoch, Noah, Moses, Jacob, Joseph, David, and all other heroes of faith who died. They obviously didn't see God yet. Where are they since death? Dan |
