Title: Death?
Post by: Craig on April 12, 2007, 04:13:43 PM
        Do I understand you correct that when a person die, nothing goes anywhere?

        Please explain:

        Ecc 12:7  Then shall the dust [out of which God made man's body] return to the earth as it was, and the spirit shall return to God Who gave it.

        When will man’s spirit return to God?

        Blessings

        Dear Lodewyk:  No, I never said that "nothing goes anywhere," but I have stated that the DEAD PERSON doesn't go anywhere. Yes, the spirit of man, which God gives to a man to give him life, returns to God AT DEATH. This spirit has no consciousness of its own, as it needs a body to regain consciousness. This will happen in the "resurrection from THE DEAD."

        God be with you,
