Judy, I hope you're not asking that question of Musicman! he will not give you the answer you seek! He answers with riddles and weird stuff. His heart is in the right place, well no, it's not, he's an alien and his heart is located in...oh I can't tell you where it's at, that would betray his trust! ;)
Just ask George! :D

--- Quote from: Judy on February 14, 2009, 03:00:36 AM ---Was wondering if those 3 were dead as you say until the Lord comes, then how did they appear in the sky? And didn't God say "I am the God of the living and not the dead"??????

Hey Judy,
 
As to your first question, I could not find a Scripture where they appeared in the sky. Could you please give the one referring to this so we can help?

Here is a link to a post that should help with the second question.

Hope this helps.

suzie, got a few names wrong but----Matthew 17 chapter 1-9, and Mark 9, chapter 2- 10      And why haven't others responded to this? I mean this puts a good dent about everyone being dead as a doornail. Judy

Dave in Tenn:
Judy, from the CLV.

Mat 17:3  And lo!  Moses and Elijah were seen by them, conferring with Him.
Vs. 7 and 8.  And Jesus approached and, touching them, said, "Be roused, and fear not!"  Now, lifting up their eyes, they perceived no one except Jesus Himself only.
vs 9.  ...Jesus directs them, saying, "Now you may tell no one (of) the vision till the Son of Man(kind) may be roused from among the dead."

vs 10.  ...'why then are the scribes saying that Elijah must be coming first?" vs.12 ...Yet I am saying to you that Elijah came already, and they didn't recognize him, but they do to him whatever they will.  Thus the Son of Man is also about to be suffering by them."  Then the disciples understand that He spoke to them concerning John the Baptist.

Peter, James and John go the mountain with Christ.  He was transfigured in front of them.  Moses and Elijah were SEEN by them.  The voice from Heaven identifies Jesus.  They fall to their knees, and when they dare again open their eyes, they see Christ alone.  Jesus calls what they experienced a vision.  He explains that the prophecy regarding Elijah WAS fulfilled, and the disciples understood that a man (John the Baptist) came with the spirit of Elijah. 

A vision, and a type.

It wasn't the last vision and revelation of a type that Peter had, and it certainly wasn't the last time it happened to John either, as the recorder of The Revelation.

Thanks Dave, that explanation sent it straight to my understanding. I missed the word VISION, well, not really but just thought that the vision was real( like in physical) I can now SEE with a little help from my friends.( I believe that was a song.) O.K> now I repent from my temper and causing any trouble. Judy
