    Should we be disrespectful towards the Bible?

    I agree with you. :sparklingheart: These Scriptures express the importance of Repentance, Obeying the Gospel and doing Good! * I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. --Luke 13:3 (Red Letter Edition) King James Version * and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and...

    I have a feeling that the afterlife doesn't exist

    Only at the Resurrection, which Jesus said is a future event (John 6:40,44), will good & bad people be brought back to life. — John 5:28,29; Acts 24:15. But right now, until that “future event” comes, the dead are dead. — Genesis 3:19; Ecclesiastes 9:5,10; Psalm 146:3,4; Ecclesiastes 3:19,20...

    Where are the Dead?

    I could just repeat the line from the religion I grew up in, but that would be disingenuous. So what do I think about this, as in my gut feeling? I think we go on and after death there is some form of consciousness. Hopefully in a good way. If by chance there is nothing, then I don't care, as I...

    Where are the Dead?

    Since an entropy increase lowers free energy via the equation (G=H-TS), where S is entropy, the second law also implies that the free energy of the universe decreases over time, due to the 2nd law; universe forever increases entropy and decrease free energy. Energy Conservation implies this...

    Where are the Dead?

    Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead. (Jn. 11:14 KJV) And saying this, he shouted loudly, "Lazarus! Here! Come out!" (Jn. 11:43 Pbro. Guillermo jünemann beckchaefer) Jesus had the ability to resonate his voice at the frequency of those who had departed. The spirit of Lazarus...

    Where are the Dead?

    Of course, if a person is raised from the dead, they need a body. However, raising Peter, James, John... from the dead, does not involve raising up a decomposed body, for two reasons. They aren't going to live in a fleshly mortal body. They aren't given an old body. 1 Corinthians 15:38, 42-49...

    Where are the Dead?

    Nothing suggests the situation correctly described in Ecclesiastes has changed. Ecclesiastes 3:18-20 I said in my heart with regard to the sons of men that God is testing them to show them that they are but beasts. For the fate of the sons of men and the fate of beasts is the same; as one...

    Where are the Dead?

    Do not interpretations belong to God? (Genesis 40:8) No prophecy of Scripture springs from any private interpretation. For prophecy was at no time brought by man’s will, but men spoke from God as they were moved by holy spirit. (2 Peter 1:20, 21) There are no private interpretations here. There...

    I agree with those above The 'basically' interpretations are a bit off the mark.

    Where are the Dead?

    Oh, so Lazarus died a different death than others? No, he died just like everyone else dies; like the animals die. (Ecclesiastes 3:19,20) The only difference is , unlike animals, humans will have a resurrection, during the “last day.” - John 6:44 God was clear to Adam about what will happen...

    Question for all - what happens after death...

    Sorry but I don't believe any part of our being is conscious after death of our parts because of what the Bible says about that. Dust to dust. The life force or spirit is from God. There are those who died who are in God's memory and He can restore them to life when the time comes. Jesus said...

    Where are the Dead?

    @nPeace , I hope you’re having a good day my brother. As Jehovah’s people, we’re aware of how active His enemy the Devil is, especially with regard to misleading humans! If Jehovah feels ‘distress’ when we’re distressed (Isaiah 63:9), imagine how He initially felt when one of His own spirit...

    Where are the Dead?

    Jesus didn't speak in Greek. He most likely spoke in Aramaic. So why use an argument based on the Greek? Just pointing that out, I have no stake in this discussion. See that @Trailblazer?

    Where are the Dead?

    A living body is a living person. Correct. I looked at all the Bible translations and most of them say graves, not tombs, not that it matters, because dead bodies that have long since decayed are not coming out of their caskets that were buried in the ground. John 5:28 KJV Marvel not at this...

    Where are the Dead?

    Here's the question, also for @Trailblazer . Why would spirits need a medium to get to them? I mean I could figure an answer, but rather have a person who believes it's ok to contact dead(?) spirits answer. So to repeat -- why would a spirit need a medium to get to them?
