Things in the Bible not really in the Bible ...and a few surprises

Oops of the Day

When Christians die, they go to paradise and have to wait for heaven.

Luke 16:19-31  –  John 3:13  –  Luke 23:39-44  –  Ephesians 4:8; Revelation 22:2  –  Philippians 1:21-23  –  Revelation 10:6 (KJV)

Fact of the Day

No! Jesus’ parable of the beggar dying and going to Abraham was before he died and conquered Satan by coming back to life. The Mosaic Law was still in effect. The same with Jesus on the cross and telling the other crucified one he would be in paradise.

All references to where we go after Jesus’ death & resurrection refer to being with Christ

Jesus referred to paradise while he was still alive. But he descended to Paradise to bring captives up in his train, for the tree of life formerly in the paradise of Eden is now in heaven. Now, when the Christian dies, he is immediately with Jesus. Is Jesus not in heaven?

Since in our next life “time will be no more” it seems the Day of Judgment will be for each of us the day we die.
