Does minister mean that the Angels cared for him, in maybe cold and lack of oxygen conditions? The Bible does not specify |

The Bible does not specify well, we can assume the translation is rough the words prior to mountain give hints like 'paralambanō' which means 'take up' see the verse again: Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; the definition and usage of this word means: to take to, to take with one's self, to join to one's self an associate, a companion metaph. to accept or acknowledge one to be such as he professes to be not to reject, not to withhold obedience to receive something transmitted an office to be discharged to receive with the mind by oral transmission: of the authors from whom the tradition proceeds by the narrating to others, by instruction of teachers (used of disciples) so... they might never have literally left the desert. |

As others have said, I wouldn't feel worthy to even be in His presence - but I would ask Him if God had a sense of humor and what it is like :-) "Be still, and know that I am God." Psalm 46:10 Truth needs no validation because it is self-evident and undeniable. Therefore, anything that requires validation to be realized or justified as truth must contain at least some degree of falsehood. Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak. [link to www.youtube.com (secure)] |

And if he told you his return would be invisible but gave you a sign to discern it? '3 While he was sitting upon the Mount of Olives, the disciples approached him privately, saying: “Tell us, When will these things be, and what will be the sign of your presence and of the conclusion of the system of things?” 4 And in answer Jesus said to them: “Look out that nobody misleads YOU; 5 for many will come on the basis of my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will mislead many. 6 YOU are going to hear of wars and reports of wars; see that YOU are not terrified. For these things must take place, but the end is not yet. 7 “For nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be food shortages and earthquakes in one place after another. 8 All these things are a beginning of pangs of distress. 9 “Then people will deliver YOU up to tribulation and will kill YOU, and YOU will be objects of hatred by all the nations on account of my name. 10 Then, also, many will be stumbled and will betray one another and will hate one another. 11 And many false prophets will arise and mislead many; 12 and because of the increasing of lawlessness the love of the greater number will cool off. 13 But he that has endured to the end is the one that will be saved. 14 And this good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations; and then the end will come.'- Matthew 24:3-14 |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 15435149 Not sure of what your thought exactly is, but it is sounding pretty Moody Blues ya know? In the bible it says: no man comes to the father but by me. We know there are hundreds of millions or billions of galaxies, and in those galaxies are billions of planets of intelligent life. When certain beings die, they go to heaven and meet Christ. He has many different names across different species. This is mentioned in more than few NDEs. Not only is Jesus christ greeting ALL these beings when they die, he's also saving some from hell, appearing to others in dreams, and.... Keeping up with his heavenly duty. So that's....... A number of interactions of a number that I can't Possibly fathom... All Happening right now. How does he do it? How does he remember everyone? How does he even know the full sequence of events of the individual he communicates too? I suppose the amount of intelligence and memory over there is infinite. It also can only be explained that there is no timespace in the afterlife, therefore, confirming what others have said, that timespace is an illusion! How can one imagine that... I'd ask him simply, how do you do it all!? I'm sure he'd understand what I was asking right away, and like his way, have a simple yet fully understandable explanation for it all. I've been trying to imagine 'no time', it's hard lol. Time does lengthen and shorten with perception, it's simple. Think of days when you are bored, or the worst day of your life, or a moment when you are in a lot of pain, now remember how long that felt. The opposite is think of the very best day of your life, the happiest moments, and think of how fast time seemed to go. Time seemed shorter. And moody blues? No thanks =). Just curious... |
