What I think and believe, is
the dead know nothing, Eccl 9:5-6, Job 14:10-12, +
The next conscious moment for dead people, will be when they stand before God in Judgment. Revelation 20:11-15
Eternal life, means never dying. We still die, saved and unsaved, but those who have become faithful Christians, the Promise of immortality is theirs.
The majority of Christianity is wrong in the false belief of anyone going to heaven, dead or alive.
But Paul never says such a thing at all. He says how the Lord's people who remain will be gathered to Him, on earth; 1 Thess 4:17, Matthew 24:31
Paul prophesies about the change that will happen to those worthy, dead and alive, at the GWT Judgment, AFTER the Millennium. 1 Corinthians 15:50-56, Revelation 21:1-7
As I do read what God has planned for His people in the end times, I look forward to it all with great anticipation, as He blesses and protects His people.
Readers there is not scripture that says God will take any human to heaven. But there are 6 verses of the Words of Jesus, that tell us such a thing is impossible.
The 'rapture to heaven' theory is in fact, a Satanic lie of the worst kind because many have fallen for it. To their discredit and to their serious confusion when it doesn't happen.
