I understand your confusion! These faithful souls could not ascend to heaven until Christ came to set the captives free.

I've come to believe these living souls being under the alter speaks of the Old Covenant faithful saints who could not ascend to heaven after death before Christ came to set the captives free. Christ did this through His cross and resurrection, and before ascending to heaven, Christ first...

I think you should embrace your own good advice, Rich! Because it is you who continues to give opinions about what you think or what you have been taught to believe as biblical truths! I don't do this, especially if I find what I believe is truth forces contradictions into the Word of God. If...

Not pretty close but IS from Scripture! I'm wondering if you have failed to notice this forum is for discussing the Bible, it is not about what sayeth Rich, but what sayeth the Scripture!!! How about proving through the Scriptures what you continue to allege???

I have done this Rich! That's why I know with complete confidence the doctrine you espouse is unbiblical!

I don't mean to be rude Rich but I am frankly sick of your unproven opinions! Since you do mention Rev 21 have you overlooked the fact that New Jerusalem shall come down from heaven AFTER the first heaven and earth has passed away? That won't be for one thousand years but will be...

All of the dead shall be raised in the hour coming, when the last/seventh trumpet sounds and time given this earth whereby mankind must be saved shall be no longer. That is one bodily resurrection for all the dead to either life or damnation.

If you cannot prove what you allege why would anyone believe anything you say?

We continue to be living souls in heaven after our natural body of flesh dies. Since our flesh became a corpse the only way we can continue to have life (be living soul) without physical body in heaven is through our eternal spirit. Because it is the spirit in mankind that receives eternal...

They could not have ascended in glorified body, because none shall be bodily resurrected immortal & incorruptible before the hour coming, when the last trumpet sounds that time given this earth whereby mankind must be saved shall be no longer.

The description of the heavenly these faithful saints looked for is "better", not the same as that which they came out, they could have returned to, but confessing to be strangers and pilgrims on the earth, they seek a country far better. A heavenly home, looking for a city whose builder and...

I see you cannot bring forth a single verse from Scripture to support your unbiblical doctrines!

The following verses speak of those who have part in the FIRST resurrection which is not physical, but is to be spiritually born again of His Spirit in us. When the body of saints dies we continue to be spiritual body of Christ in heaven after death, because in life before we died we had part...

What many promises despite Israel's disobedience are you referring to? The only promise of land and a Kingdom not yet completely fulfilled but has most assuredly has come shall be found by WHOSOEVER (Jew & Gentile together) is according to grace through faith in Christ Jesus our Lord. This...

The first resurrection is not before the thousand years, it is within the thousand years. And all who have part in the first resurrection within this period of time have overcome the second death. The "first resurrection" man must have part in is not being physically resurrected. Because there...

There is NO gap between Daniel's 69th and 70th week prophesy. Christ fulfilled all that was written there. That's why from the cross before He died He said "It is finished."

As I have shown there is NO gap between the 69th and 70th weeks of Daniel's prophesy.

There is no one thousand year gap because a/the thousand years symbolizes TIME that began with the first advent of Christ come to earth a man, and shall end when the last/seventh trumpet begins to sounds.

John does write of a physical resurrection in Rev 20. Calling it the "first resurrection." John speaks of the dead in Christ as having lived and reigned with Christ during this time he writes a thousand years. The first group is of those who died as martyrs for Christ. They are living souls...

As I've already told you through the words of Joshua, the promise of land was literally fulfilled when Israel crossed over into the promised land. It could have been theirs forever IF they had remained obedient to the covenant and faithfully kept the law of God. I showed you how you're saying...
