Bible Question: many christian denominations like chatholics, Jacobites etc pray for dead souls. What does Bible say about this.Can I have a few quotes about this from Bible. |
Bible Answer: Four Square, Scripture is pretty clear that there are no second chances. Hebrews 9:27 says, "And inasmuch as it is appointed for men to die once and after this comes judgment," Physical death is experienced by all (Ps 89:48; Ec 5:15; 8:8; 9:5; Ro 5:12–14; 1 Co 15:22.) The only exceptions are 1: Christ- who conquered death, and 2: Enoch and Elijah- who were translated. Though there are some specific- albeit few- examples in scripture of the dead being raised to life by prayer requests (1 Ki 17:22, Jn 11:41–42, Ac 9:40). I do not see any Biblical admonition to pray for the dead. Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
