God and the alarm clock.

(1/3) > >>

rick:



This morning when the alarm clock rang out, the first thing I thought about was this is what the resurrection is going to be like. One can be dead for one hundred years or a thousand years but whatever duration of time that has elapse , one feels not the time they slept anymore than I could feel the eight hours I slept.

I must say although the alarm rang out, I wanted to keep sleeping, I don’t know if one will want to keep sleeping or not when the resurrection happens but I think I’ll leap for joy knowing what I know now.

What I don’t know is which scriptures will apply for me but whichever one do or do not let us be thankful for all things.


1Co 15:51  Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,

1Co 15:52  In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.



Eze 37:4  Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD.

Eze 37:5  Thus saith the Lord GOD unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live:


God bless everyone.  :)

Hi Rick, I was thinking that sleep might be the best sleep I could ever have, nothing, nothing to move me or cause me to roll over. Ya that will be the sleep!

Hi Rick,

Reference your alarm clock remark and thinking that you wanted to keep sleeping...

When I awaken most mornings, I have just had a dream that I was still back at work and moving around doing something familiar or maybe looking for a men's room because I have a full bladder. Then I wake up and have to go...

But that is not the way it will be in the resurrection.
We will not be sleeping in a dream state with little thoughts roaming around in our subconscious.

No, when we are resurrected we will be awakened in a conscious state of mind, fully alert and ready to meet the day. Lots of questions will come to mind of course, but I'm quite sure that we will be in a peaceful state and have helpers all around us to answer any questions.

I'm really looking forward to that event whether it be easy and peaceful or thrilling like running in the wind.

Warm regards, ole Indiana Bob

Ricky:
Where can I find that verse, helpers all around us to answer any dumb questions.

Dave in Tenn:
1Co_6:2  Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?

Judgement on and salvation from ignorance is knowledge.  I don't think it's a stretch at all to consider that we will "have helpers all around us to answer any questions."
