[QUOTE="Van, post: 53843174, member: 89579"] By Faith, Noah, being warned by God about things not yet seen, in reverence prepared an Ark for the salvation of his household, by which he condemned the world, and became an heir of the righteousness which is according to faith. So Noah obtained approval by faith, and his faith in God's word produced action in his life that demonstrated his faith in God. But did this faith in God provide Noah access to heaven and a right relationship with God? Nope. The Old Testament "saints" (those that gained "approval through faith in God") died in faith without receiving the promises, but having seen them and welcomed them from a distance, and having confessed that they were strangers and exiles on the earth. So when they died, they did not go to heaven, but instead their spirits went to a place of comfort, called "Abraham's Bosom" set apart (hence saints) yet having not received the promise of righteousness of God. But God has provided something even better for us (New Testament Saints) so that apart from us (i.e before Christ died on the cross for all mankind) they should not be made perfect. But when Christ died, He emptied out "Abraham's bosom" and brought them -the OT saints - to Paradise, and so with us they did receive the promise of the righteousness of God. This is all spelled out in Hebrews Chapter 11, verses 7, 13, 39 and 40, plus Luke 16:23-26. [/QUOTE]
