Bible Question: when a person who has accepted jesus in their life dies were do they go, to heaven or is there a place were they wait until the return of the lord. were is moses, david, abraham etc and the current christians that have died , were are they at right now |
Bible Answer: Jesuswalks247 - this is what God's Word says. Our spirit leaves the body and is with Christ but the body remains until Christ returns and believers are all changed in a twinkling of an eye - 1 Cor 15:50-54. Jesus told the criminal on the cross, "Today you will be with Me in Paradise" Lk 23:43, Jesus went there and the one who believed went there also when he died. But today, Jesus is not in Paradise; He is in Heaven. When a believer dies he/she will be with Him there. Oh what a day when we see Jesus, face to face. Blessings, mommapbs |
