Where Am I Going When My body Dies?
I read a significant amount of blogs, books, letters, etc. recently I have been engaged in a weekly Bible study on Sundays in the book of Revelation the last book in the Holy Bible. I have not felt confused of the description of what will occur when Jesus Christ the Messiah returns. Most significantly is what I read (in any version, paraphrase , translation or hermeneutical interpretation by Christian theologians .
Chapter 21 of Revelation describes where I will be going when my body dies. Our linguistics allows descriptors of heaven in any language. So, understanding the how but the what, “ I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.” Without trying to tell you what the mystery is about this is most likely a way of expressing my faith. “ And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away”.
If you are wondering why I have not given exact references as to verse warrants Is that I hope you are curious enough t to read that chapter from more than one Bible offering.
Chapter 22 provides more of what I look forward to experiencing first hand as the author of Revelation has received from the person of Jesus Christ . Read it through to see.
Also in that chapter an invitation ,” Come . And let him/her that is athirst come. and whosoever will, let them take the water of life freely.”
I close this entry with my statement that without your confession and repentance followed by accepting the Savior of you sin you will not be able to experience that which is described in this book. If you have comments or questions I invite you to send them to me on this page site.
