Bible Note: From Isa.12 and Ezek.28 we can understand that before the creation of man, God was ruling over the earth through angelic beings. The chief of them was Satan. But when Satan was disqualified, God created man in His own image and likeness to replace Satan. Man also became disqualified because of his fall. But God did not reject man. God made a plan of restoring the fallen man back to the original purpose for which he was created. But till man is restored to rule alongwith the Man Christ, Satan continues to hold the sceptre.(Lk.4:6, 2Cor.4:4, Eph.2:2, etc.) But day is fast approaching, when Satan will be cast into hell, and man alongwith the Man Christ will take the sceptre and start ruling over the whole earth. Man consists of SPIRIT, SOUL and BODY. At the time of death these three are separated from each other. The spirit goes to the Father, the soul enters the sheol/hades, the body returns to the dust. At resurrection, before judgement, (saved and unsaved) the spirit, soul and body are reunited. We get back the spirit from the father, the soul returns from sheol/hades and a new body (it will be a glorious body for the saved individuals) is given by God. This is clearly seen at the time of the death of our Lord Jesus Christ. (Luke 23:46, Acts 2:24,27, Matt.27:59,60) For more details, please see TIME CHART on my web page http://personal.vsnl.com/nicholson/godslove/timechart |
