Okay I tend to start threads and then not say much afterwards in them. They are not intended to be hit and run posts, rather I like to start something and then gain information from sitting back and observing the exchange of views on this board. On that note what are peoples beliefs on the following.
1/ Where christians go after immediate physical death on this earth. Do we go straight to heaven as spirit beings until the second coming and then get glorified bodies?
2/ How do we as christians explain apparitions, ie ghosts [the spirit bodies of those who once lives here]. Are they unsaved spirits.
3/ To contradict the above point do the unsaved go straight to hell and then the lake of fire after.
4/ Why did Jesus glorified body still have scars. Does this indicate that the glorified body is infact a renewal of the old? On this note should we be buried rather than cremated?
5/ During Jesus time there was some belief in reincaranation that Jesus didnt rebuke? Can we hold as christians the viewpoint that although we are created as one God breathed spirit we have different physical incarnations bearing in mind scriptures such as John 9.1. Mark 8 27/28. Revelation 3 12.
6/ What about "Bleed Throughs". When people often children refer or act in a manner that suggest previous incarnations in this realm. Alternativley could this be consider a result of the working of familiar spirits?
