There will be two judgements:

1. Immediately after you die

2. When Christ shall come in glory to Judge the living and the dead.

Do these verses agree?

"...But the dead know nothing..." Eccl. 9:5

"His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish." Psa.146:4

It is clear from that passage that those people were on earth, and that Christ through the Holy Spirit was speaking to them in Noah's preachings to repent, but they refused: their spirits were in the prison of sin. They were therefore destroyed by the flood.


Hahahahaha, I hope you are still talking about this "For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison;..". First Peter tells us He was put to death in the flesh, then quickened by the spirit, he went to preach, then in verse 21 he tells us of his resurrection, then in verse 22 he talks of his ascension and enthronement in Heaven. And they have been teaching you something else. Chai.

If somebody goes from purgatory to Heaven, who saved him?
God saved him by applying d merits of Jesus to purify him.

I'll add the remaining verses of that passage to your post. Then read it again and understand.

It is clear to all and sundry that Moses and Elijah are in Heaven now.

The thief is in his grave.

There was a mistake in the translation of the Bible: read Luke 23:43. That comma after "thee" should have come after "to day".

So, it correctly reads "...I say unto thee to day, thou shalt be with me..."

I thought you were the one that said the 17th verse of 1 Cor. 3 was talking about hell?

Answer my question.


Now you are being dodgy. Be honest and answer me, I have been answering your questions straight and honestly. Yes that verse is talking about hell. I did not say it's people who committed a particular sin. Destroying the temple of the lord is not a particular sin.

So destroying the temple of GOD is general sin? How many sins make it up?

If somebody lives the whole of his life on earth morally right, but did not acknowledge Jesus: we both know he is going to hell.

Did he destroy GOD's temple? Since GOD will destroy those who destroy His temple (and you said it is hell).

So Moses and Elijah came from Heaven, they were in heaven before Christ death abi? Yet scriptures says:

(Heb.9:11,12): "Christ being come a high-priest of the good things to come . . . by His own blood entered once into the Holies, having obtained eternal redemption.

Then according to you, the thief is in the grave, when Jesus had said to him "Today you will be with me in Paradise"

Now I see how much you believe scriptures.

Have you not read that Elijah was carried to Heaven by a whirlwind?

Or that GOD took Moses after his death?

Or that GOD took Enoch to Heaven?

These people were in Heaven before Christ's death.

1John5:17...There is sin that leads to death. These are sins that removes sanctifying grace, this grace keeps soul alive, but when you comit sins such as mentioned in Gal 5:19-21, you fall from grace, you become dead, you destroy the temple of the Lord. If you die in this condition without repentance, you go to hell.

If someone had no opportunity of hearing the good news and lived morally right, then he dies, will he go to hell?

So some people did not need the redemptive power of Christ's death abi. It was you who pointed out that Only those washed in the blood of Christ are in heaven, it is you now telling me that some didn't need to wash in the blood of Christ. Haba!

Did I say so?

Those people are in Heaven but none have received their rewards. Christ's death on the cross assured the reward they will receive.

I don't know if you think the reward GOD's people are going to receive in Heaven comprises bags of rice and clothing, hence your bizarre notion that since Enoch and co are yet to receive their rewards, they are supposedly in lack.

You just have nothing else to say. I will once again teach step by step.

When a man in accepting Christ, leaves his old ways of sin----- Eph. 4:22 That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts.

through repentance of heart----Eph.4:23 And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;

he puts on a new man by the action of Grace from God----- Eph.4:24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.

This new man is the temple of God ---- Eph.4:30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

You have heard o, harden not your heart. Heb.3:15

Hahaha, my brother, lets just say the truth. If you have not gotten something that you need, you lack that thing. If they have not gotten their reward which they obviously need, then they are in lack? And you say this happens in heaven, so there is lack in heaven grin I don die.
