Quotes the following to justify Reincarnation
Daniel 7:26
But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away
his dominion,
to consume and to destroy it unto the end.
Revelation 20:4 And I saw thrones,
and they sat upon them,
and judgment was
given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were
beheaded for the
witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which
had not worshipped
the beast, neither his image, neither had received
his mark upon their
foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived
and reigned with
Christ a thousand years.
Answer
“Regarding the two
passages mentioned.
Neither of these verses refers
to reincarnation.
In fact the word
reincarnation and the concept does not occur in the bible.
The bible teaches that
there is a resurrection of the dead.
The word resurrection
cannot ever be used interchangeably
with reincarnation.
They mean two entirely
different things.
It is not a matter of
having a second or many other chances to get one's
life more perfect each
time.
In fact some will be
resurrected to damnation, the second death
- The Lake of Fire.
There is not more than one
chance.
We have a document which
goes some way to explaining
‘The Lake Of Fire.’
The rich man in the case
of Lazarus and the rich man furnishes us with
some details about what
happens when you die.
First of all it is not a
parable.
Luke 16:23
And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments,
and seeth
Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
Luke 16:24 And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on
me,
and send Lazarus, that he
may dip the tip of his finger in water,
and cool my tongue; for I
am tormented in this flame.
Both men lived and died
then they were rewarded according
to their life styles.
One went to punishment,
and the other to a place of comfort.
Even the idea of returning
from the dead to warn others of the fate
which awaited the
rebellious is completely ruled out in this report.
The rich man did not even contemplate being
sent back himself.
He asked that a warning message be sent to
his family.
If it was a simple matter of reincarnation,
he could have gone back himself.
He would have been, as it were the perfect
witness from the dead.
We also need to be aware
that this discussion is between the spirit in man
of two people who had
formerly lived, and not the physical human beings,
whom we are told that the
rich man was buried, and the beggar probably
just had his body dumped
on the continually burning rubbish tip outside
the city, as he could not
afford to be buried.
This might at first appear
to be an intellectual discussion, but it is not.
It is a matter of life and
death and we need to make it our business
to ensure that we accept
Jesus Christ as our personal saviour,
listen to and obey Him.
This is far removed from
simply leading a good life and doing good.
The indwelling of the Holy
Spirit is the only means of perfection.
It is not a matter of will
nor mind over matter.
In fact we have to be very
careful as evil spirits,
and fallen angels
masquerade around as angels of light.
They make it their
business to promote reincarnation,
and also the multitude of
self improvement regimes which exist today.
There is much more to salvation than morality
and good deeds.
2 Corinthians
11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed
into an angel of light.
2 Corinthians
11:15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also
be
transformed as the
ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be
according to their works.
It does not matter how
many times one lives, the solution remains
the same, repentance
conversion and receiving the indwelling Christ.
There is a very powerful
statement to which we must pay attention.
Revelation 12:9
And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent,
called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole
world:
he was cast out into the earth,
and his angels were cast
out with him.
There are no exceptions to
this statement.
We just have to pray to be
delivered from the deception,
which is an ongoing
process.
This requires the
miraculous intervention of the Eternal God.
There is no other way.
There are not many roads
that lead to salvation.
There is just one, and it is not associated with any
group whatsoever,
but rather with the individual personal relationship
between man,
and his Creator.
John 14:6
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the
life:
no man cometh unto the
Father, but by me.
It is clear that the way
is not any type of regime but rather a person.
The Truth
is a person.
The Life
is a person.
Peace
is also a person.
We cannot work these
things up.
We cannot pull ourselves
up by our own bootlaces.
Ephesians 2:14
For he (Christ) is our peace, who hath made both one,
and hath broken down the
middle wall of partition between us;
It is because of the above
statements we can make definite statements
that world peace can
never be brought about by peace conferences,
much less the diabolical
concept of war.
However, much good our
lives are, and how much good we do without
accepting Christ we see
that all amounts to being filthy rags.,
Isaiah 64:6
But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses
are as filthy rags; and we
all do fade as a leaf;
and our iniquities, like
the wind, have taken us away.
Luke 13:24
Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you,
will seek to enter in, and
shall not be able.
Luke 13:25 When once the master of the house is risen up, and
hath
shut to the door, and ye
begin to stand without, and to knock at the door,
saying, Lord, Lord, open
unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you,
I know you not
whence ye are:
Luke 13:26
Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk
in thy presence, and thou
hast taught in our streets.
Luke 13:27 But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye are;
depart from me,
all ye workers of iniquity.
Luke
13:28 There shall be weeping and
gnashing of teeth,
when ye shall see Abraham,
and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets,
in the kingdom of God, and
you yourselves thrust out.
These are the words of
Christ, who was more than just a good man,
and a prophet.
He is the Eternal God in
person.
The concept of returning
continuously in some way to improve oneself
is not scriptural.
Even to believe that we
can by ourselves overcome our inbuilt wickedness
by some self imposed deprivation
or regime is an error.
Jeremiah 17:9
The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately
wicked: who can know it?
As we stated in the
document Reincarnation,
It is given unto men once
to die and then the judgment.
Hebrews 9:27
And as it is appointed unto men once to die,
but after this the
judgment:
In Daniel which is
speaking about the end time which is upon us,
a united group of nations
will rise up and destroy the realm
of the anti-Christ.
At this time the kingdoms of
the earth will come under the rulership
of Christ and his saints,
who are His Bride and the Man Child.
We have dealt with the
definition of the Man Child in the document,
The Woman, The Man Child,
and the Remnant.
The meek are inheriting
the earth,
Matthew 5:5
Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
They are not on a self
improvement course.
The saints are in a
position of rulership.
Revelation 20:4
........they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
However to be focussed on
ruling is unwise as the greater the position,
the more we have to
understand that our desire to serve should be greater.
Today most think of
leadership positions and the various offices
as positions to control
and manipulate others.
This is wrong.
Our goal must be to serve
others as directed by the Eternal.
Christ is the supreme
example.
I
pray that this is of some help.
Much Grace
p.j.
Be Humble Repent Listen To The Eternal God Obey Him.
This is very easy to say, but
I assure you that it is physically impossible,
without the empowerment of the
Eternal God.
Attending some Church,
going up to an altar call, or isolating yourself,
in the hope that
somehow it will all be alright, will not do it.
What are you going to do about
it before it is too late?
See The Video: Obedience Is The Only Way Of Escape
. The only way out of
this dilemma is Jesus Christ.
. He
is the only way of escape.
. We have to be
under His Care and Protection.
. Salvation
by any other name or means,
. Simply does
not exist.
. Complete Obedience is
required
Praise the Lord.
. Come soon Lord Jesus.
.
Amen.
