- Death – Body still on earth. At the end ALL bodies to be raised/resurrected — good AND bad, see John 5:28-29; Matt 25:46; I Cor 15:20-58 and I Thess 4:13-18 and 5:23.
- People in heaven – spirits/souls (without bodies) of dead Christians are alive in heaven at throne, Rev 4:2; 20:4-6; Rev 20:11-15. See for clarification Ecclesiastes 12:7.
- Absent from body present with the Lord—saved, I Cor 4:16-5:11.
- No condemnation (sin condemns) because of Christ, Romans 8:1.
- All will have works “judged,” but not their salvation. Already saved by grace. See Eph 2:8-10!
- At the Lord’s return we receive a new body, I Cor 15:20-28 and 15:35-58, esp. I Cor. 15:51-53
- We will rise to meet him in the air, I Thess 4:17.
- Judgement –Matthew 25:31-46 is General Judgment (Keeping in mind Deut. 29:29). God doesn’t tell it all here!
- Condemnation — Lost – judged (condemned), John 12:48-50; See also John 3:16-19.
- RAPTURE? FALSE teaching – idea that will Jesus’ return to reign for 1,000 literal years from Jerusalem. B-C-V? NONE! I Thess. 4:13-18 – The imagined “rapture” passage proves the RAPTURE DOCTRINE is FALSE!
- TRIBULATION? Jesus said in John 16:33 that we are in “tribulation” as long as we are on this ball of earth. No special tribulation is coming.
- Jesus can never set foot on this earth again as King, BECAUSE:
- Jesus reigns forever IN HEAVEN
- As king. 11:15 and 4:2
- As priest (after the order of after Melchizedek as Jesus cannot be a priest at all on earth because He is not a Levite, Heb.8 :4 Heb. 7:21; 8:4)by Ivy Conner
