Heaven Is God's Kingdom Conclusion to the Spiritual Universe What is the Spiritual Realm? The spiritual realm is an invisible universe inhabited by spiritual beings, some good and some evil, with intelligence and emotions. The invisible world and physical world are in constant interaction with each other. What is God’s place in the Spiritual Realm? God is the creator and ruler of the spiritual universe in all of the same ways that He is in the physical. God is just as powerful and present in one realm as He is in the other. Who are the angels? Angels are created beings with unique characteristics and personalities. There are some who serve God and some who are in rebellion against God. Who is Lucifer? As the most beautiful and highest ranking angel, Lucifer was created to lead worship to God. That is until his own pride and arrogance made him believe that he should sit on God’s throne and be worshipped by all of creation. What is Lucifer Like? Lucifer is the enemy of God because he hates God, and he is jealous of Him. His oldest tactic is to target people because the way to get to the Father is through His children. Some of The Enemy’s Tactics: •Satan lies and twists the truth so that we doubt God and ourselves. •Satan uses weapons like pride, anger, fear, and discouragement. •Satan tempts us to sin, and then accuses us if/when we give in to sin. Some of The Enemy’s Tactics: •Satan wants people to believe that he can’t be defeated or isn’t real. •Most important- Satan wants to prevent the spreading of the Gospel. –he will use conflict, division, and unforgiveness to distract the church. Equip Yourself with God’s Armor ✓Salvation ✓Righteousness ✓The Gospel ✓Faith ✓Truth ✓The Word of God and prayer How do we fight the real enemy? •The enemy can’t read our thoughts so we must speak verbally with authority. •We can only claim victory over the enemy “in Jesus name”. How do we fight the real enemy? •Don’t get hung up on the words of phrases you use. Allow the Holy Spirit to lead and guide you in claiming victory. Life and Death Genesis 2:7- Then the Lord God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being. Life and Death What happens when we die? Ecclesiastes 12:7- “…and the dust [body] returns to the ground it came from, and the spirit returns to God who gave it.” What happens when we die? 2 Corinthians 5:6-8: …while we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord. (For we walk by faith, not by sight.) We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. Does everyone go to Heaven? 2 Corinthians 5:10- For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each of us may receive what is due us for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad. What happens when we die? •We “fall asleep”, •Our body and soul separate, •The soul is the part of us which lives on for eternity. •And in the “twinkle of an eye” we awaken standing in God’s presence. Stand before God the righteous judge. Revelation 20:12- “And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books. What is the “book of life”? Book of Life, also referred to as the “Lamb’s book of life” (Rev. 13:8) contains the names of those who made the decision to follow Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. The book of life promise from Jesus. •Rev. 3:5- Jesus said, “I will never blot out the name of that person from the book of life, but will acknowledge that name before my Father and his angels.” What happens to those not in the book? •Rev. 20:15- Anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire. After we die, we stand before God. •The book of life is opened to determine where we spend eternity. •The names in the book enter Heaven •The names not in the book are removed from God’s presence. Eternity- Heaven or Hell? •Is there a limbo or purgatory? •Where is Heaven and what is it like? •Where is Hell and what is it like? •Can people go to Heaven/ Hell and then return to their earthly body? Limbo or Purgatory Jesus to the thief on the cross- “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.” Luke 23:43 Conclusion: There is no mention of any “limbo” in the Bible. Heaven and Hell are the only two places mentioned in the Spiritual Realm. Where is Heaven? •Up •2 Cor. 12: 2-4- Paul writes: “I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of the body I do not know—God knows. Where is Heaven? And I know that this man—whether in the body or apart from the body I do not know, but God knows— was caught up to paradise and heard inexpressible things, things that no one is permitted to tell.” What is the 3rd Heaven? Where is Heaven? •Up •It is so far beyond the outer reaches of space and farther than the farthest galaxy yet when God calls us there, we travel in the “twinkling of an eye” (1 Cor. 15:52). What is Heaven like? •Heaven is God’s kingdom. •Jesus often taught that “the kingdom of heaven is like…” What is Heaven like? •A place of eternal life (Rev. 22:5) •A place of eternal light [no darkness] (Rev. 22:5) •A place without death, sorrow, or pain (Rev. 21:4) What is Heaven like? •It is a city of gold with walls made of jasper and decorated with every precious stone, and gates made of pearl. (Rev. 21:18-21) •It will have vineyards, orchards and animals… a true paradise. What is Heaven like? •God’s house has many rooms; Jesus prepares a place for us (Jn 14) •We will have treasures waiting (Matt. 19:21, Mark 10:21, Lk 12:33) •We will be made new and perfect (Rev. 21:5) What is Heaven like? •We will be given new, perfect bodies. (1 Cor. 15:40-49) •We will know who people are we will have new, perfect minds. •It will be paradise in every way! Why was Hell created? •The lake of fire was originally created for Lucifer and the fallen angels. (Matt. 25:41) Where is Hell? •Like Heaven, Hell is not a place you can travel to in your physical body. •The Bible says “descend” to hell (Ephesians 4:9-10). •It is a place separated from God; His burning judgement and fiery wrath are the only parts of God present. What is Hell like? The Bible describes Hell as a place of: •weeping and gnashing of teeth, Matt. 13:42 •outer darkness, Matt. 8:12 •eternal fire, Jude 1:7 •everlasting punishment, 2 Thes. 1:9 What is Hell like? •eternal torment with no rest day or night, Rev. 14:11 •a bottomless pit, Rev. 20:3 •a lake that burns with fire and brimstone, Rev. 20:10 •a place where worms feed and do not die, Isaiah 66:24 What is Hell like? •fire that is not quenched, Isa. 66:24 •black darkness, Jude 1:13 •a place where people cry for mercy, Luke 16:24 •a place of destruction 2 Thes. 1:9 Can people go to Heaven/ Hell and then return to their earthly body? There and back again? •A medium communicated with Samuel after he died. •Moses and Elijah were with Jesus on the mount of transfiguration. •Lazarus was dead three days before returning to life. •The man caught up to the 3rd heaven. There and back again? •Simple answer… ➢Only God has the power over life and death. ➢Be skeptical of people who say that they have traveled between realms. Conclusion •The only way to Heaven is through Jesus Christ- the truth and the life. •Until people take their final breath here on earth, it is not too late… there are no “lost causes” to God. Conclusion For the believer, their best day on earth will pale in comparison to eternity in Heaven. For the one who rejects God, their worst day on earth would be a dream in comparison to eternity in Hell. .

  • Message Four Being Faithful in Service in the Lord's Commission
    THE CHRISTIAN LIFE, THE CHURCH LIFE, THE CONSUMMATION OF THE AGE, AND THE COMING OF THE LORD (Saturday—First Morning Session) Message Four Being Faithful in Service in the Lord’s Commission and in His Gifts for His Second and Imminent Coming Scripture Reading: Matt. 24:45-51; 25:14-30 Matt 24:45 Who then is the faithful and prudent slave, whom the master has set over his household to give them food at the proper time? Matt 24:46 Blessed is that slave whom his master, when he comes, will find so doing. Matt 24:47 Truly I say to you that he will set him over all his possessions. Matt 24:48 But if that evil slave says in his heart, My master delays, Matt 24:49 And begins to beat his fellow slaves and eats and drinks with the drunken, Matt 24:50 The master of that slave will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour which he does not know, Matt 24:51 And will cut him asunder and appoint his portion with the hypocrites. In that place there will be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth. Matt 25:14 For the kingdom of the heavens is just like a man about to go abroad, who called his own slaves and delivered to them his possessions. Matt 25:15 To one he gave five talents, and to another two, and to another one, to each according to his own ability. And he went abroad. Matt 25:16 Immediately he who had received the five talents went and traded with them and gained another five.

  • Shedding Ancient Light on the Outer Darkness Controversy
    Basic Training Bible Ministries presents Shedding Ancient Light on the Outer Darkness Controversy “And so we have the prophetic word confirmed, which you do well to heed as a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.” 2 Peter 1:19 Arizona Cowboy Conference September 6–8, 2019 Shedding Ancient Light on the Outer Darkness Controversy Arizona Cowboy Conference September 6–8, 2019 Matthew 8:5–13; 13:36–43; 21:33–45; 22:1–14; 24:45–51; 25:14–30 Introduction Only within the last generation has the issue of eternal reward, or the loss of it, become much of an issue among Christians. It is an important doctrine, and the relatively recent teachings and books on inheritance for believers have filled an important gap in our understanding. However, as always happens, some have pushed the teaching beyond biblical bounds. Today, many believe that the passages dealing with “outer darkness” (Matt. 8:12; 22:13; 25:30) refer to a place of punishment for Church Age believers who have not “measured up.” The fact that the term only occurs in Matthew, the Gospel written specifically to Jews, and often called “the Gospel of Judgment,” should tell us something. This current study is a refutation of the idea of outer darkness being some kind of “Christian purgatory,” and will present ancient data to show that “outer darkness” was a term understood by the Jews of Jesus’ day to refer to Gehenna, or Hell. Biblical analysis and interpretation are very much like the investigative work of a detective.

  • THE REJECTION of the KINGDOM Chapter 7 the Matthew Mysteries by Gary T
    THE REJECTION OF THE KINGDOM Chapter 7 The Matthew Mysteries by Gary T. Whipple This chapter will cover Matthew’s chapters eight through twelve and will show the deteriorating relationship between Israel and Jesus during His Galilean ministry. This relationship will be broken in the twelfth chapter of Matthew when Israel will obstinately refuse to repent and thus, will reject the preaching of the “gospel of the kingdom.” To teach the major truths of this section of scripture, the writer has chosen six topical subjects: (1) Israel’s lack of faith; (2) the calling and instructing of the apostles; (3) the upbraiding of Israel; (4) the personal invitation of Jesus; (5) the unpardonable sin; and (6) the one sign of Jonah. ISRAEL’S LACK OF FAITH Israel’s lack of faith is first seen in the eighth chapter of Matthew and is revealed in spite of the miracles that Jesus performed in their sight. Because of their lack of faith, Jesus began prophesying that they would be cast out of the kingdom. The First Mention of Outer Darkness "And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven. (12) But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth” (Mart. 8:11- 12). Prior to this verse of scripture, a Gentile Roman centurion had demonstrated his faith in Jesus Christ by asking Him to heal his servant by long distance; i.e., without the necessity of Him coming to his house.

  • Visions of Heaven and Hell by John Bunyan
    VISIONS OF HEAVEN AND HELL BY JOHN BUNYAN John Bunyan’s Vision and Visit to Hell – Seventh Encounter – Part 2 A Famous Atheist in Hell May 31st, 2020 This is the last message on this book, so please read pages 21-24 of the PDF above of John Bunyan’s, “Vision of Heaven and Visit to Hell”, with the title; Seventh Encounter, A Famous Atheist in Hell. Bunyan says to the atheist the following; “I would ask another question. I heard yourself and others cry out of burning steel and fire and flames; and yet I cannot discern it. Where there is fire there must be some degree of light; and yet from what appears to me you are still in utter darkness.” Does this not sound like the church today, for the most part? One could draw an analogy in that they’ve rejected the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on them and as a result, they’ve ended up walking in darkness. The atheist says; “O that I could but say I felt no fire! How much easier my torments would be compared to that which I now find them! But alas, the fire that we endure ten thousand times exceeds all culinary fire in fierceness; and is of quite a different nature from it. There is no light at all attends it, as goes with such fire that burns on earth. But not withstanding all the fire in hell, we are in utter darkness.” Have you ever been in utter darkness before where you can’t see where you’re going? We’ve all been in that position haven’t we.

Visions of Gehenna: The Biblical and Apocryphal Underworlds and Hells behind the Inferno Scott Cameron, Huron University College Abstract: This paper argues that Dante’s Inferno should not be read exclusively in the Classical humanist tradition by contextualising his work within a long history of apocryphal Christian representations of Hell. Jerome’s Vulgate Bible rendered Hell as an abstract site for the realisation of theological principles, rather than a physical place readily comprehensible in human terms. In failing to describe Hell in literal terms, the Vulgate invited curiosity, and apocryphal visions of Hell proliferated to fill this gap.

  • Life After Death 2
    LIFE AFTER DEATH As near as I have been able to tell, the common Christian doctrine implies that when we die, we are then consigned to our final destination, heaven or hell. This concept, I submit is not supported in the scriptures. Yes, there are verses that imply such, but a careful study will show that the final judgement will occur after the resurrection. Passages we have previously quoted do not support this concept such To repeat the passages, mention above showing that paradise is not heaven is made clear as on the morning of the resurrection when Jesus met Mary Magdalene near his tomb: Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God. (John 20:17) Where was Jesus between his death and resurrection? 18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened [taken] by the Spirit: 19 By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison; (1 Peter 3:18 - 19 Resurrection and Final Judgment We have already covered the resurrection of Christ which opened the door for all to be also raised from the dead and overcome physical death. As near as I can tell, most Christian professors believe in and teach the resurrection as it is very clearly taught in the Bible.

  • Outer Darkness” in Matthew’S Gospel; Shedding Light on an Ominous Warning J
    The “Outer Darkness” in Matthew’s Gospel; Shedding Light on an Ominous Warning J. Paul Tanner, ThM, PhD I. INTRODUCTION On a number of occasions in Jesus’ earthly ministry, he announced that people would be held accountable for the way in which they responded to him and his preaching of the kingdom message. Those who responded by believing him to be the promised Messiah of Israel were assured of eternal life with the confidence of entering the kingdom of God. On the other hand, there would also be those whose response would be deemed inadequate or unfit, and as a result would be cast into the “outer darkness.” Jesus referred to this ominous warning of the “outer darkness” on three occasions, all of which are recorded only in Matthew’s Gospel (Matt 8:12; 22:13; and 25:30).1 In each instance, Jesus also noted that in this place there would be “weeping and gnashing of teeth.” This latter expression occurs seven times in the Gospels, all in Matthew’s Gospel account (Matt 8:12; 13:42, 50; 22:13; 24:51; and 25:30), except for one case in Luke 13:28. The purpose of this paper is to examine these ominous warning expressions to determine whom Jesus had in mind, the nature of the fate that awaited them, and the reason they were to be consigned to this end. There are certainly good evangelical teachers today who hold that these passages have true (yet disobedient) believers in view, ones who will be in for the Lord’s stern rebuke at the judgment seat of Christ and a loss of rewards.2 In this paper, however, I will argue that the Lord had something much different in mind.

  • Dan Barker: ​​”​​​​What the Hell Is This?”
    Dan Barker: ”What the Hell Is This?” ​ ​​ Greg Deuble: www.thebiblejesus.org When it comes to the question of everlasting torment in Hell, Dan Barker ​ expresses the thoughts of many: “Probably the worst of all of Jesus’ ideas is the teaching of hell. He did not invent the concept of eternal punishment, but the promotion of the Christian doctrine of hell originated with Jesus. In the Old Testament, hell is just death or the grave. With Jesus, hell became a place of everlasting torment. In Mark 9:43 Jesus said that hell is “the fire that never shall be quenched.” In Matthew 13:4142, Jesus gives us a graphic (and almost ​ gleeful) description of the place he created: “The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; and shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.” Hitler’s gas ovens were horrendous and the suffering was unspeakable, but they did not burn forever. The murdered victims of the Holocaust suffer no more, but the victims of God’s anger will scream forever and ever.” (1) ​ ​ Barker goes on to testify that he does not believe in Jesus or in God so, “I qualify as ‘one of those things that offend’ in the above verse. Anyone who thinks it is moral for someone like me a person who has used reason and kindness to come to ​​​ conclusions to be eternally punished for my views hasn’t the faintest concept of morality.
