To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord

[@GTSN38]

Easy and simple, but most people think the afterlife is so complex and they just make stuff up

Well since CHRIST rose from the dead. But before that everyone even the saints were in the heart of the earth. One side was torment, one side was paradise (abrahams bosom). Even CHRIST HIMSELF was there for 3 days. “For as Jonah was in the belly of the great fish for three days and three nights, so will the Son of Man be in the heart of the earth for three days and three nights.” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭12‬:‭40‬

When I was a bout 16 I woke up one morning and saw a woman stood at the window. She was wearing 'medieval' clothes, with long draping cuffs, a pointed wimple and a fine gauze hanging from it. I looked at her, looked at the clock (06:25) and went back to sleep. I wasn't Christian then and felt no threat or any evil. My parents house was haunted, and my brother and I lost count of the amount of times we had encounters, some of them very unpleasant. Footsteps on the stairs, in the room, real intimidation from 'something' or 'someone' in the corner, a rage or anger strong enough to drive me from the room. Years later I kept getting the feeling that a woman visited my bedroom, and in the end I refused to sleep there. My wife got a woman to chase the spirit away, and apparently there were no further visits. That said, that house also had other events going on, and the only thing I can say to anyone reading this is: call out in the name of Jesus. He is Lord of lords, and King of kings, and the enemy fears His name.

Very good brother. I lived in an old 'haunted' cottage for sixteen years when growing up and I know first hand spirits are real, and am an eyewitness to the existence of spirit beings. I agree with you that 'ghosts' are not the souls of the departed but evil spirits: they are in the business of deception, as you say; and part of their work is to stop people believing there is a heaven and a hell; also to discredit the truths in the bible. Some dear Christian folks do not believe that spirits are up to their pranks these days, but I know they are because I have witnessed it myself many times. I wouldn't be surprised if 'hauntings' are on the increase in these last days. Well said bro.

[@magical8013]

When Jesus rose and appears through the wall the disciples thought he was a ghost and were afraid, Jesus told them “…a ghost hath not flesh and blood as I do” and he ate to show them he was flesh. Thus, Jesus verifies that ghosts are real. Now, if ghosts are demons Jesus surely would have pointed out that error to them but he did not, neither did the disciples claim Jesus sudden appearance was “demonic”. My point, the worlds (plural) as Paul said is more complex than we think and the Bible is not clear on the subject.

This video may have cleared some questions that's settling in my mind for quiet a bit. To be honest, I always say that I don't believe in ghost (the kinds that are dead people's spirit that would either protect us or harm us, the ones that can communicate to medium) but I am scared to be in the dark, and the thought of ghost scared me. I mean like, it would make no sense if I say that I don't believe in it and yet be scared of what's in the dark whether it be ghost or humans, right? And when ghost came to mind, I always forget the fact that when people died, their physical body would remain to where they are buried and their souls would go to heaven and to God. I know I started half believing to ghost is because of those scary videos I watched when I was a kid and thought they are scary and real. And even until now, I still have that mindset.

I woke up early one morning (around 2 or 3AM) to go to the bathroom... so I got up and turned on the lights. And when I came back to my bedroom, with the intention of going right back to bed, I saw someone walking through my bedroom - looked like a man with backward goat legs, so I knew it was a demon. - I saw it with my own eyes. And looking back, I realize he was "allowed" there because of the music I was listening to - I was obsessed with Queen back then.

I never believed in ghosts until my friend caught a video of one. She was watching her boyfriend put up security cameras On her phone, and recording it at the same time. Just messing around. She was trying to tell him which way to do it so it gets the whole driveway. Anyways he put the camera down for a second and lifted it back up and there was a woman behind him with no feet, bright shining like the light, you can the pupils in her eyes were brighter than her skin. It was a real woman, but it wasn't a living human. After that we decided to look up the girl on the internet. Come to find out she was murdered with another girl just down the street and it was the exact same girl. The weird part about ghost is they seem to have some type of evil that kept them here. It's always something very bad that's happened to them and I personally don't think they're good. They could be. I know a lot about video editing and other things. She doesn't know anything about that that's why I believe she got one. And plus I don't think I could even edit that like the video came out. It was raw and real

@@mosriteminioncause7741 Well those passages are pertaining more to testing claims of false teachers and prophets who are trying to lead believers away from the true gospel but what im trying to say is that it was probably GOD who raised samuel from the dead not the witch. Because if we look at 1 samuel 16:14 it says “The Spirit of the LORD had departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the LORD tormented him.” So if GOD would send a spirit to torment saul im pretty sure HE would allow samuel to be raised to condemn saul for doing such a wicked act

We learn in luke 16 that the rich man was able to see lazarus (who was in paradise) from the side of torment. Lazarus however wasnt able to see the rich man. And also in the book of matther JESUS tells us exactly where HE would go when HE died “For as Jonah was in the belly of the great fish for three days and three nights, so will the Son of Man be in the heart of the earth for three days and three nights.” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭12‬:‭40‬ ‭ Before CHRIST rose on that 3rd day every single saint was in the heart of the earth.

[@Saiyan585]

In the Gospel of Matthew, the disciples saw Moses and Elijah (who had not yet resurrected) with Jesus on the Mount of Transfiguration (17:1-9). Prior to this, the disciples thought Jesus himself was a ghost (14:26), indicating that they at least had an idea of ghosts. Appearing after his resurrection, rather than correct the idea of ghosts, Jesus simply says he isn’t one (Luke 24:37-39). Judas Maccabeus met the ghost of Onias the high priest in a vision (2 Macc. 15:11-17).

If you're a Christian you don't need to fear demons. James 4:7 Submit to God, resist the devil and he will flee from you. Submit means to line up under, to give our allegiance willingly to God, obey His commands, and follow His leadership. Resist... take your stand against. If your allegiance belongs to God, satan has to flee from you. He is a defeated foe. You old have an audible Bible playing softly as you fall asleep, and put your mind on that. Think on God's love for you, instead of thinking about fearing satan. Read Phillipians 4:8, memorise it and say it to yourself as you're falling asleep. x

You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.” additionally, 2 Thessalonians 2:9-10 says “The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved.” do not be deceived: people cannot die and get stuck on earth. a verse to directly disprove this is Hebrews 9:27, which says, “Man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment.”

[@danielallen7384]

Like he said. It's clear and simple. It's either Angel's or Demon's. If a spirit is pretending to be a past loved one It's a demon. If the spirit does good things (not haunting someone) it's a angel. Angels aren't going to hang around and open doors, knock things in the floor, turn things on and off. That's all demonic activity. Angels may show briefly just to look over someone or protect someone from harm. But they aren't going to move into your home and set up camp. Like a demon would. The best and only way to ward off demon spirits is in the name of Jesus Christ. But you have to truly believe that just the name of Jesus has the power to dismiss demon entities. Which it truly does.

So I have called for you to tell me what to do.” 16 But Samuel replied, “Why ask me, since the Lord has left you and has become your enemy? 17 The Lord has done just as he said he would. He has torn the kingdom from you and given it to your rival, David. 18 The Lord has done this to you today because you refused to carry out his fierce anger against the Amalekites. 19 What’s more, the Lord will hand you and the army of Israel over to the Philistines tomorrow, and you and your sons will be here with me.

[@BoundReborn23]

@@pauliethompson3rd465 Haha. I'm honored. And yes. There's a reason "Fear not" appears 365 times in the Bible. Stay grounded in Christ and his word and you're covered. With the issue of purgatory, the idea that there is an inbetween when we die is something I find hard to believe. To my understanding a knowledge, all that die go back to the creator our God. If there's purgatory then that implies our waiting after we die but there has even been accounts of people who've been to hell and heaven and have seen people who were once with us. To add on, If we were in a state of purgatory then prophets of old who had died shouldn't be in heaven but yet, Moses and Elijah appeared to Jesus at the mountain of Transfiguration. Acts 7:54-59 also talks about the Apostle Stephen when after his stoning immediately saw Christ in heaven. I hope that lifts the viel on the whole purgatory thing. I believe it is referenced because the book of Revelation talks of us being in a sleep like state until the rapture and our resurrection. But the soul doesn't sleep, the body does. Makes sense how Jesus stated Lazarus was asleep and not dead lol. Our bodies sleep, our souls/spirit don't. We came from the lord and to him we shall return when he calls us.

The son of man came 2000 years ago. His name was Jesus, Yeshua in Jewish. The christ, messiah. He's coming back at the time of judgment, but the antichrist is coming first.

At 3:00 you say, "What about psychics who claim to summon the deceased . . . ?" You sound skeptical, yet we know from 1 Samuel 28 that the witch in Endor called up Samuel at Saul's insistence. Before commenting that this is an instance of deception by demons, the text says specifically that the witch did in fact call up Samuel. And Samuel, even in death, kicked Saul's a$$ for his disobedience in having her call him up. Rest assured, we as Christians are not forbidden from this activity because it is not actually possible to do, and because we are being deceived. If it were not possible in the first place forbidding it would make no sense. We are forbidden from this activity because it IS possible to do it, and God has banned this activity for our own protection. But just as a Christian can engage in something sinful though God commands us not to do it, people can do this. The consequences are immense, which is why God has commanded severe penalty for those who practice it. To wit, Ex 22:18 - Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.

But it didn't make sense they would have giant offsprings, does it ? ? But now, finally, some Western Christains realize in the Hebrew understanding, it means Angels.. Angels was known as sons of God.. West is confused about this because, of the saying Jesus as the ONLY Son of God.. Jesus is the only BEGOTTEN son of God.. That's the difference between Angels and Jesus and even Adam.. Adam was never begotten either.. He was completed created from God and Adam was never BORN.. Begotten means Born of a woman..
