He name is YeHoVaH and is identified as the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God and Father of Yeshua.
What ever happens to me, "God did it," right or wrong , good or bad, good or evil," God did it."I get the impression that people think the Sons world(s) created by the powers the Father gave him are micro managed in every detail. Die in a car wreck, God did it, stumped your toe, God did it, die from cancer, God did it, lived to 100, God did it. Not so, God the Father deals with much larger aspects of his creation than the routine outworking of his evolutionary worlds in time and space. Earth never was supposed to be our permanent home and we grow through our efforts to do Gods will. On the mansion worlds we will still be working to shed "the mark of the beast", the influence of our evolutionary animal inheritance.
Where do you find that in the Old Testament?In Gods plan we live on this world to an average age unless we accomplish all that we can spiritually and are translated, consumed by the spiritual flames and graduate to the next level where more work awaits us.
I see.Other than Enoch and Elijah translating no further explanation is given in the Bible.
I didn't ask that.Neither heaven nor hell are mentioned in the Hebrew Scriptures.

The people who wrote the Old Testiment didn't have a New Testament lense to write through. But I get your point, there were plenty of extra biblical concepts in existence such as their hardened ideas about the coming Messiah.That all depends upon whether you read the Old Testament through the lens of the New Testament doesn't it? The concept of hell is certainly present in the New Testament, and it wouldn't suddenly have popped into existence in 1 AD, so it must be implicit in the Jewish concept of Hades, even if it wasn't understood that way in OT times.
No, I'm not confined to the Bible in my quest for truth.
Again, if you are motivated by the hope for a slothful life in eternity, you haven't thought that through very well.
The Geographical location of the Father is forever fixed on the isle if Paradise. His spirit is within us. Enoch went to heaven, perhaps the Mansion worlds that Jesus went to prepare.
You should google the Bible, Jesus spoke of the "many mansions", he went there to prepare a place for us. You remember Jesus right? The religious rocket surgeons thought he was silly as well.....What?
Edit: Nevermind, I googled "mansion worlds" and it's Urantia book sci fi silliness.

If false teachers had to endure persecution, and martyrdom as well, it makes them a lot more believable and a lot more popular.
Even better if the false teacher thinks he or she is doing the right thing (plus points for sincerity!)
The devil sure knows what it's doing. It doesn't think like a four year old. He had to try to pull off the performance that Christ did.
