MOVING OUT A LIVE SOUL This is moving from your earthly house into a heavenly house, without tasting death. Genesis 2:7 Man became a living soul Ezekiel 18:3 The soul that sinneth it shall die - O.T. Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death - N.T. Hebrews 10:39 We are of them that believe to the saving of the soul James 5:20 He which converteth the sinner from his errors - shall save a soul from death John 5:24 He that believeth hath everlasting life and is passed from death unto life John 8:51 If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death John 4:14 A well of water springing up into everlasting life John 6:49-51 If a man eat the bread from heaven, he shall live forever and not die John 3:15-16 Should not perish, but have eternal life 2Tim.1:10 Saviour Jesus Christ who hath abolished death and hath brought life John 5:26 The Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself; 1John 5:11 This life is in his son which is given to us eternal life. JESUS TOOK OUR PLACE OF A NATURAL DEATH Romans 5:8 While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Hebrews 2:9 Jesus tasted death for every man. Hebrews 9:28 Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many. 1Peter 2:24 Jesus bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, should live OUR SPIRITUAL DEATH AND FIRST RESURRECTION John 3:1-8 Ye must be born again. Romans 6:3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? = ( Holy Ghost Baptism ) 4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. 5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: 6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. 7 For he that is dead is freed from sin. 8 Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him: 1Corinthians 15:29 If you have the HG baptism, then why are you then baptized for the dead? Philippains 3:10-11 Paul's HG conversion = being made conformable unto his death I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead. Luke 20:34-36 neither die any more: being the children of the resurrection Colossians 2:12 you are buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen Colossians 3:1-3 If ye be risen - ye are dead and your life is hid with Christ 2 Corinthians 5:17 in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; John 6:40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day. ( The last day was Pentecost Acts2:17 in the last days, I will pour out of my Spirit HG.) Revelation 20:4-6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power ( everyone will not die a natural death, there will be those who will go up at his coming, but they must have a first resurrection to be a part of this. HG ) ( These are the first completed beheaded dead saints in what is called the first resurrection here) ( This, the first resurrection group is the same as the firstfruits group in Rev.14:4. )
A NEW BODY Matt 10:28 don t fear them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul 2Cor 5:1-4 if our earthly house be dissolved, we have a new house eternal in the heavens 2Cor 5:8 to be absent from the body, to be present with the lord 1Cor 15:40 there are celestial bodies ( heavenly) 1Cor 15:50-57 flesh & blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God we shall be changed this corruptible must put on incorruption ^ our body being subject to death ^ a new body of life Phil 3:20-21 We look for the Saviour the Lord Jesus Christ who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body ( this is at his coming it would be for the alive and remain saints to be caught up ) PETER UNDERSTOOD THAT THERE IS ANOTHER BODY TO HAVE. 2Pet 1:14 I must put off this my tabernacle, even as our lord Jesus Christ hath shewed me Luke 9:28-32 Peter saw Jesus' countenance was altered Mark 9:2-3 Jesus was transfigured ACTIVE SAINTS IN HEAVEN 1) A brethren is talking to John Rev. 6:11 rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethern, that should be killed. Rev 19:10 the angel said : I am thy fellow servant, and of thy brethern that have the testimony of Jesus Rev 22:9 I am thy fellow servant, and of thy brethern the prophet (This was an active living bride member talking to John. He was one of the souls under the altar in Rev.6:11 that received a white robe ) 2) God receives the living and Jesus brings them alive with him at his coming 1Thes.3:13 &5:23 We are to be ready at the coming of our lord Jesus Christ with all his saints 1Thes.4:13 Paul was explaining the resurrection 4:14 sleep in Jesus (when their body dies here, not the soul), will God bring with him (take them up to heaven now ) 4:16 the dead in Christ shall rise first (They have done this in the early church, and some will do this before the final gathering)
THE SOULS UNDER THE ALTAR Revelation 6: 9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held: 10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth? 11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellow servants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled. JESUS IS OUR ALTAR: Heb.13:10-15 We have an altar, whereof they have no right to eat which serve the tabernacle. ( the Priest were still offering sacrifices after Jesus died ) 12 Wherefore Jesus also,that he might sanctify the people with his own blood 15 By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name (Jesus) Rev.11:1 measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein. BEING UNDER THE ALTAR IS BEING UNDER CHRIST: Col. 1:18 And he is the head of the body 1Cor. 11:3 the head of every man is Christ Rev. 3:8 hast not denied my name. (ruler ship) Eph. 5: 24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ THE QUESTION: v.10 How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth? v.11 rest yet for a little season, until their fellow servants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled ( They are just resting (waiting) for the judgment to be carried out and their brethren which we read about in the future should be killed. They are not waiting to see Jesus.) ( Future ) Rev.19:1 And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and glory, and honor, and power, unto the Lord our God: 2 For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand. "UNDER THE ALTAR" This is not a separate compartment in heaven called "under the altar" where you rest. Then someday later you get to see Jesus with the rest of the saints that comes at a later time. It is just simply saying they are under Jesus authority. - Husband, headship, Lord... They dedicated their life to the altar. THE THRONE: Rev.2:26 And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations: 27 And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father. Rev.3: 21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne Rev.12:5 And she brought forth a man child(overcomers in the early church), who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child(early church) was caught up unto God, and to his throne. ( Rev.12:17 Remnant comes later -the latter rain church)
THE BOOK OF LIFE (THE LIVING) = Given after Jesus came. Rev 3:5 He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life (The firstfruits, overcomers ) THE BOOK OF REMEMBRANCE ( of THE DEAD ) = Given to the O.T. saints Malachi 3:16 Then they that feared the LORD spoke often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name. 17 And they shall be mine, saith the LORD of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him. ( This was before Jesus came ) In Matthew 27 we read some of these O.T. saints came back from the dead after Jesus resurrected and I don't think they died again as they did before. The O.T. saints according to Hebrews 11 were indeed dead and God remembered them and brought them back to life. Jesus was aslo in this book when he died. This book of remembrance is still good for today for all those who have not become an overcomer yet. SECOND DEATH Revelation 2:11 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death. ( This scripture was also preached to the early church) What is the First Death? Hebrews 9:27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:. ( We will all die, whether it is natural or HG baptism ) Romans 6:4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death (HG baptism) 1Cor.15:29 Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead? (HG baptism) Col. 2:12 buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen Col. 3:1 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above When a person is born again they have died their first death in baptism and have been resurrected a new creature. 2Cor.5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. (the old man is crucified and by baptism we are the new man) Second death cannot hurt those who are an ovecomer. They are in the Book of Life, not the Book of Remembrance(of the dead ). JESUS CAME TO MAKE A CHANGE FROM THE OLD John 6:48 Jesus said I am that bread of life. 49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead. 50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die. ( The one dies of eating manna and the other lives because of the life giving bread to the soul and he shall not die.) PASSED FROM DEATH UNTO LIFE John 5:24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
1CORINTHIANS 15 LAST TRUMP THE CHANGE AND THE CATCHING AWAY 50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. This is telling us that we as humans cannot inherit heaven in this fleshly body form, we need a new body, a celestial body 51 Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, = the alive and remain at his coming but we shall all be changed, = WE ALL whether passed on or here for the catching away = we all have to change into a new body. 52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: = Jesus receiving the latter rain for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, = Jesus is the trumpet - - Col.3:3 ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ - like as was with Stephen he was raised into a new body and we shall be changed. = And WE -The alive and remain shall be changed also How ever we go, before or with the group, we all have to be changed, to be able to enter the heavenly realm. 53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. Our body is subject to death and cannot live in the heavenly realm, we must have a celestial body which at this time is for us to function in and to live forever. 54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. = Not hurt of the second death 1THESSALONIANS 4 THE COMING OF THE LORD Those who die before his coming in pink vs Those who are alive and remain at his coming in blue 13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. ( saints who have already passed on in their body, this is what the people in the church saw ) ( sorrow not toward them as others who without hope(not saved) will not see them again. ) 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. ( Those who passed on in the body, God done took them(their soul) on up to him ) ( 1 Thessalonians 3:13 To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints. ) 15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive [and] remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. = ( Saints will go on up before coming of the Lord Jesus.) 16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: ( Jesus is the only archangel, he is the shout and the trump of God. He came to all those that were overcomers in the early rain church starting with Stephen and also for those who will die before his coming in the latter rain church. ) 17 Then we which are alive [and] remain shall be caught up together= (as a group at his coming) 1) with them in the clouds, = ( them and Jesus are already there together ) 2) to meet the Lord in the air: = ( we will meet Jesus ) 3) and so shall we ever be with the Lord. ( It's not that we will be gather with them so we can meet Jesus, we will see Jesus and be gathered with those that are already there. Them are already there in the clouds to welcome us ) 18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words
