Bible Question:
I know that the bible says that at the rapture, all who are dead will be risen to meet with the Lord in the sky. What I am confused about and would like clarification is this. I have also heard (where scripturally, I am not sure), that when we die we will immediately go to heaven. So my question is, which is true? Do we stay dead in the ground until the rapture, while He is preparing a place for us -- or do we immediately go to heaven when we die? |
Bible Answer: according to scripture our spirits go to either heaven or hell. it depends upon what decisions we made while here on earth. at the rapture our bodies are brought to heaven and transformed into heavenly bodies. how our spirits enter the transformed heavenly bodies which were dead i am not sure without more guidance from God. but i would probably say our spirits enter at or before the transformation. how does not really matter because with man it is impossible but with God nothing is impossible. so just believe that one way or another it will happen. hope this helps |
