WHAT HAPPENS TO THOSE WHO HAVE ALREADY DIED?
Death
has been a part of the plan of God in the making of His Son although God
did not create death, Adam the son created death when he decided to listen
to his soul Eve and in so doing brought the judgement of God upon himself
and all of the generations to proceed from his seed.
The
multitude of humanity has come from this fallen man as this is the plan
of God to reproduce Himself into a many membered body on the earth. God
caused division to come through Adam and recollection to come through Jesus.
Jesus is the first and the last and all of humanity is the body of Jesus
whether in the fallen state or the regenerated state. We all are members
of the ONE body. God has only one SON and we are all cells of His body
whether we know it or not.
It
is good at this time to pray to God and ask Him to reveal His Truth to
us concerning the oneness of God and man in His eternal plan as He completes
His work in us ALL.
"
Lord of ALL, I ask you to lead me into understanding concerning the oneness
of the body of Jesus the Christ Your only Son, please give me clear revelation
within my spirit man regarding the resurrection and judgement of the dead into
Eternal life, AMEN."
Many billions of souls have crossed over into death as the scroll of life unfolded through human history and all have gone to death without being able to prevent it. Those of us on this side of the river of life are the hope of the ones since passed on. We often hear people say that our children are our hope and even as the ancient men of the Bible had hope and looked forward to the coming messiah we now look back to Jesus as our hope for He is the one in whom we all hope. In the days of Abraham we read that the men who died were gathered to their fathers all the way back to Adam. We all are one body whether dead or alive, for death is only temporary and our soul continues on in existence whether in a body or out of a body. We all are assured of resurrection into a new body at the end of time when all men are judged according to their works. We all are one bread and one body, all created as the offspring of God and God works in all of us to build one body in His own image and likeness. Our God and Father is not a man that He should lie and He works all things to the counsel of His own will, in so doing He finishes what He starts and He planned all of creation from before the beginning of time. His Word shall not return to Him void or without accomplishing that for which it was sent and He sent Jesus to reconcile all things unto Himself. This, all things, includes all people for He wills that all people be saved.
1 Tim
2:3-4
3
For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
4
Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the
truth.
(KJV)
2 Cor
5:18-19
18
Now all {these} things are from God, who reconciled us to Himself through
Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation,
19
namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting
their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation.
(NAU)
We can see in scripture that all men have sinned and all fall short of the glory of God and that it was through Adam that all died but praise be to God it is also through one man Jesus Christ that life will come to all men and all who are baptized into the death of Christ will also be resurrected in Him along with all who are in death.
1 Cor
15:12-29
12
Now if Christ is preached, that He has been raised from the dead, how do
some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?
13
But if there is no resurrection of the dead, not even Christ has been raised;
14
and if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is vain, your faith
also is vain.
15
Moreover we are even found {to be} false witnesses of God, because we testified
against God that He raised Christ, whom He did not raise, if in fact the
dead are not raised.
16
For if the dead are not raised, not even Christ has been raised;
17
and if Christ has not been raised, your faith is worthless; you are still
in your sins.
18
Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished.
19
If we have hoped in Christ in this life only, we are of all men most to
be pitied.
20
But now Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those
who are asleep.
21
For since by a man {came} death, by a man also {came} the resurrection
of the dead.
22
For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.
23
But each in his own order: Christ the first fruits, after that those who
are Christ's at His coming,
24
then {comes} the end, when He hands over the kingdom to the God and Father,
when He has abolished all rule and all authority and power.
25
For He must reign until He has put all His enemies under His feet.
26
The last enemy that will be abolished is death.
27
For HE HAS PUT ALL THINGS IN SUBJECTION UNDER HIS FEET. But when He says,
"All things are put in subjection," it is evident that He is excepted who
put all things in subjection to Him.
28
When all things are subjected to Him, then the Son Himself also will be
subjected to the One who subjected all things to Him, so that God may be
all in all.
29
Otherwise, what will those do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead
are not raised at all, why then are they baptized for them?
(NAU)
We
know that God has subjected all of us to the vanity of our minds in hope
of resurrection and restoration of all by the manifestation of the
sons of God.
Rom
8:19-23
19
For the anxious longing of the creation waits eagerly for the revealing
of the sons of God.
20
For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because
of Him who subjected it, in hope
21
that the creation itself also will be set free from its slavery to corruption
into the freedom of the glory of the children of God.
22
For we know that the whole creation groans and suffers the pains of childbirth
together until now.
23
And not only this, but also we ourselves, having the first fruits of the
Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting eagerly for {our}
adoption as sons, the redemption of our body.
(NAU)
1 Cor
15:51
51
Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all
be changed,
(KJV)
We can see that the pains we all feel in this life are childbirth pains as we all are changed into the new creation man and as we come out of the old Adam man of death. As we come out of the mind of Adam and put on the mind of Christ we become the children of God who will set creation free from the bondage of corruption, which is in itself the vanity of our own minds. We all are one body and one bread and as such we have been leavened with the leaven of the carnal mind which we inherited from Adam or more correctly Eve who is the mother of all of creation. Now Jesus has come to reverse the curse and give us the leaven of heaven, which will leaven the whole loaf. This one body of humanity is either dead or alive and every man is to put on the mind of Christ or be leavened with the leaven of heaven to be in the new loaf, which is the new creation. This yeast or leaven is the agent, which changes the whole loaf into something according to the type it represents and with the Adam race it was the leaven of SIN or self thinking, which gave us all a false identity and death. With the Christ as the leaven it is the leaven of heaven, which brings eternal life. We could say that Eve made a Shebrew where the soul reigned to death but Jesus made a Hebrew where the spirit reigns to life eternal. In both cases the whole loaf was affected by the leaven. We all are one bread and all one a part of one another, one body. Even the men of old, who are of faith and who trust in this coming generation, have hope in the resurrection in us and they are depending on us to be made perfect.
Heb
11:39-12:2
39
And all these, having gained approval through their faith, did not receive
what was promised,
40
because God had provided something better for us, so that apart from us
they should not be made perfect.
CHAPTER 12
1 Therefore,
since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also
lay aside every encumbrance, and the sin which so easily entangles us,
and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,
2
fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the
joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat
down at the right hand of the throne of God.
(NAS)
Jesus
is the pattern Son, the the one who fell to the ground and died as a sole
grain of wheat but there is a Royal priesthood raising up on this earth
to liberate all of creation from the bondage of corruption, which has been
caused by the vanity of our minds through lust. This priesthood is the
first fruit offering to the Lord and is a company of sons to come with
Christ at His coming. These saints will judge all with righteous judgement.
When Jesus was resurrected from the dead many others also were raised from
the dead and the same will happen as this first fruit company is resurrected
into eternal life, all of creation will be set free.
Matt
27:50-53
50
And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice, and yielded up His spirit.
51
And behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom;
and the earth shook and the rocks were split.
52
The tombs were opened, and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep
were raised;
53
and coming out of the tombs after His resurrection they entered the holy
city and appeared to many.
(NAU)
John
5:20-29
20
"For the Father loves the Son, and shows Him all things that He Himself
is doing; and greater works than these will He show Him, that you may marvel.
21
"For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, even so the
Son also gives life to whom He wishes.
22
"For not even the Father judges anyone, but He has given all judgment to
the Son,
23
in order that all may honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. He
who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.
24
"Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who
sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed
out of death into life.
25
"Truly, truly, I say to you, an hour is coming and now is, when the dead
shall hear the voice of the Son of God; and those who hear shall live.
26
"For just as the Father has life in Himself, even so He gave to the Son
also to have life in Himself;
27
and He gave Him authority to execute judgment, because He is {the} Son
of Man.
28
"Do not marvel at this; for an hour is coming, in which all who are in
the tombs shall hear His voice,
29
and shall come forth; those who did the good {deeds} to a resurrection
of life, those who committed the evil {deeds} to a resurrection of judgment.
(NAS)
Jude
1:14-15
14
{It was} also about these men {that} Enoch, {in} the seventh {generation}
from Adam, prophesied, saying, "Behold, the Lord came with many thousands
of His holy ones,
15
to execute judgment upon all, and to convict all the ungodly of all their
ungodly deeds which they have done in an ungodly way, and of all the harsh
things which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him."
(NAU)
Acts
2:38-39
38
Peter {said} to them, "Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name
of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive
the gift of the Holy Spirit.
39
"For the promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off,
as many as the Lord our God will call to Himself."
(NAU)
John
12:31-32
31
Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be
cast out.
32
And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.
(KJV)
Rom
5:12-21
12
Therefore, just as through one man sin entered into the world, and death
through sin, and so death spread to all men, because all sinned--
13
for until the Law sin was in the world, but sin is not imputed when there
is no law.
14
Nevertheless death reigned from Adam until Moses, even over those who had
not sinned in the likeness of the offense of Adam, who is a type of Him
who was to come.
15
But the free gift is not like the transgression. For if by the transgression
of the one the many died, much more did the grace of God and the gift by
the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many.
16
The gift is not like {that which came} through the one who sinned; for
on the one hand the judgment {arose} from one {transgression} resulting
in condemnation, but on the other hand the free gift {arose} from many
transgressions resulting in justification.
17
For if by the transgression of the one, death reigned through the one,
much more those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness
will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.
18
So then as through one transgression there resulted condemnation to all
men, even so through one act of righteousness there resulted justification
of life to all men.
19
For as through the one man's disobedience the many were made sinners, even
so through the obedience of the One the many will be made righteous.
20
The Law came in so that the transgression would increase; but where sin
increased, grace abounded all the more,
21
so that, as sin reigned in death, even so grace would reign through righteousness
to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
(NAU)
Heb
10:9-10
9
then He said, "Behold, I have come to do Thy will." He takes away the first
in order to establish the second.
10
By this will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of
Jesus Christ once for all.
(NAS)
Jesus is the Alpha and Omega, He is the first Adam who subjected all to the vanity of their minds and He is the last Adam who has come to set creation free from the bondage of corruption. He is the first in the new creation and the last man to enter into the new life of heaven on earth. He became sin for us who knew no sin that we might become the righteousness of God in Him, for we had no way to come to the fullness of God without Him, for He is the pattern Son and God manifested in the flesh that we might follow Him into heaven on earth. As Jesus is in this world so are we, we are flesh of His flesh and bone of His bone. We all were made in the Adam mold and recreated into the Christ. We all are one body. God is ONE and we are in Him. The fulness of the Godhead dwelt in Jesus as in us for we are the offspring of God even as Jesus is the first born among many brethren.
We
all are to be judged and it is best to be judged now with the judgement
of God rather than be judged at the second resurrection at the end of the
thousand year reign of Christ. Those who know that they are dead in Christ
can be resurrected in the first resurrection but those who want to cling
to their life will lose it, for it is only when we know that we already
are dead in Him and resurrected in Him that we can walk in resurrection
power, which enables to draw our fellow brethren and loved ones from their
graves. Those who will come from their graves and receive a new body will
be judged by the saints of God as we compare our book of life with their
book of death and cast their lives into the consuming fire of God for purification,
putting to death the death in their lives as their books are re written
with the Word of God.
1 Cor
11:31-32
31
But if we judged ourselves rightly, we should not be judged.
32
But when we are judged, we are disciplined by the Lord in order that we
may not be condemned along with the world.
(NAS)
1 Cor
2:15
15
But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of
no man.
(KJV)
Rev
20:4-6
4
Then I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was given to them.
And I {saw} the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony
of Jesus and because of the word of God, and those who had not worshiped
the beast or his image, and had not received the mark on their forehead
and on their hand; and they came to life and reigned with Christ for a
thousand years.
5
The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were
completed. This is the first resurrection.
6
Blessed and holy is the one who has a part in the first resurrection; over
these the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and
of Christ and will reign with Him for a thousand years.
(NAU)
Rev
20:11-15
11
Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat upon it, from whose presence
earth and heaven fled away, and no place was found for them.
12
And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne,
and books were opened; and another book was opened, which is {the book}
of life; and the dead were judged from the things which were written in
the books, according to their deeds.
13
And the sea gave up the dead which were in it, and death and Hades gave
up the dead which were in them; and they were judged, every one {of them}
according to their deeds.
14
Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second
death, the lake of fire.
15
And if anyone's name was not found written in the book of life, he was
thrown into the lake of fire.
(NAU)
We
have shown in other studies that the beast nature or the mark of the beast
is the nature we are born with, which is our Adamic nature or our self
thinking, which is opposed to God. We also have seen that our body is our
earth and our spiritual make up is our heavens. We know that the sea means
the world of humanity, those who are not regenerated, those who are dead
in trespass and sin are given up along with those in hell, all the dead.
We also discovered that the books that are opened are the spiritual record
books of our own life, which is the DNA record and these books are compared
to the book of life of the Lamb of God. The corruption in the books are
now judged against the book of life and corrections are made by the throwing
into the fire of God's purging and all worthless works are destroyed, leaving
only the imperishable eternal values of the divine nature of God. This
second death puts death to death but those already purified in their own
lifetime will not be affected by the second death.
Rev
21:1-7
1
Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first
earth passed away, and there is no longer {any} sea.
2
And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from
God, made ready as a bride adorned for her husband.
3
And I heard a loud voice from the throne, saying, "Behold, the tabernacle
of God is among men, and He will dwell among them, and they shall be His
people, and God Himself will be among them,
4
and He will wipe away every tear from their eyes; and there will no longer
be {any} death; there will no longer be {any} mourning, or crying, or pain;
the first things have passed away."
5
And He who sits on the throne said, "Behold, I am making all things new."
And He said, "Write, for these words are faithful and true."
6
Then He said to me, "It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning
and the end. I will give to the one who thirsts from the spring of the
water of life without cost.
7
"He who overcomes will inherit these things, and I will be his God and
he will be My son.
(NAU)
When
we turn our hearts to God, then He will hear from heaven and heal our land,
which is our body and this is what we all are seeking the redemption of
our bodies, which is our promised land. When we put on the mind of Christ
then we have a new heavens and when we have our body healed then we have
a new earth. The first fruit company is the wave offering unto the Lord
and it is a sign that the harvest is to come in fullness and all of creation
will be redeemed, it is a time of jubilee where we have our land restored
to us and we are free of all debt. Every man can come back to his own land
and live peaceably, the spirit now has dominion over the body.
2 Cor
5:14-17
14
For the love of Christ controls us, having concluded this, that one died
for all, therefore all died;
15
and He died for all, that they who live should no longer live for themselves,
but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf.
16
Therefore from now on we recognize no man according to the flesh; even
though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know {Him}
{thus} no longer.
17
Therefore if any man is in Christ, {he is} a new creature; the old things
passed away; behold, new things have come.
(NAS)
1 Pet
4:5-6
5
but they will give account to Him who is ready to judge the living and
the dead.
6
For the gospel has for this purpose been preached even to those who are
dead, that though they are judged in the flesh as men, they may live in
the spirit according to {the} {will of} God.
(NAU)
John
17:20-22
20
"I do not ask on behalf of these alone, but for those also who believe
in me through their word;
21
that they may all be one; even as you, Father, {are} in me and I in you,
that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you sent
me.
22
"The glory which you have given me I have given to them, that they may
be one, just as We are one;
(NAU)
So
those who have already passed into death will be resurrected and judged
according to their works. Every knee shall bow and every tongue will confess
that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God.
Rom
14:11-12
11
For it is written, "As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to Me,
and every tongue shall give praise to God."
12
So then each one of us shall give account of himself to God.
(NAS)
I PRAY THE LORD OF THE HARVEST COME AND HARVEST THE SOULS, FOR THE FIELDS ARE WHITE TO HARVEST, COME SEND YOUR ANGELS WHO HARVEST THE MINDS OF MEN AND CUT AND BURN THE LIES OF THE DEVIL.
