06【ENG DUB】Resurrection vs Rebirth #biblereincarnation
Do humans only live once? Can one be resurrected after death? Is resurrection equal to rebirth? To explore these questions, let's first find out the conditions for entering the kingdom of heaven.
The Bible often mentions people who are not qualified to enter heaven. Here, we have summarized them into six types.
......................................
For the above six points, some people may understand them in an inflexible and superficial way, resulting in misunderstandings. So, now let's provide some explanations.
Usually, believers believe that humans only live once, which means there is only one chance to repent on Earth and one chance to be saved. If so, then according to these six standards, most people are not qualified to enter the kingdom of heaven.
Lacking the concept of reincarnation, believers believe that after death, humans can only wait in the underworld for the final judgment, and the time is uncertain. We believe that God wouldn't arrange things this way.
(1 Samuel 2:6) "The LORD brings death and makes alive; he brings down to the grave and raises up."
As Christians and Jews know, after death, souls are immortal, and souls in the underworld can be brought back by God. Therefore, what is resurrected after death must be the physical body. Whereas, the resurrection of the body is only possible through reincarnation, because the dead body has already decayed.
Since God can bring people back to life, why does He let those who died for Christ wait for 2000 years in the underworld before resurrecting them? God is totally able to make them undergo reincarnation sooner, continue spreading the gospel for Christ, repent, and purify their sins and sinful nature. In fact, this is exactly what God does, and it aligns perfectly with the mercy of God and Christ.
God can bring us into this world, and similarly, He can also reincarnate our souls, because the dead body has already decayed or been cremated. Being reincarnated in a new body to continue the journey of repentance totally makes sense.
Now, let's explore the topic of resurrection.
Firstly, we should understand that after Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit, the spirituality of humans was only partially blinded, but not completely extinguished.
......
Secondly, in the Gospel of Mark, it is written: "Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned." (Mark 16:16)
Some believers do believe in God, but they still commit sins such as killing, stealing, and adultery. Most believers won't commit these sins, but they still have sinful natures such as envy, pride, greed, and anger.
Whereas, it's impossible to fully restore spirituality through repentance in a single lifetime. As a result, most believers are not qualified to enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, according to God's will, in order to be saved, a believer must undergo reincarnation to continue the journey of repentance and practice.
As long as you believe in God and are willing to repent, you can be reincarnated after death to continue the journey of repentance until God is pleased and you meet the conditions to enter the kingdom of heaven. After that, there is no need to be reincarnated again or wait in the underworld. This is God's will.
Of course, those who don't believe in God may be kind people for now who haven't committed sins such as killing, stealing, or adultery in this life, so they won't go to hell after death.
Instead, they can be reincarnated as humans. However, after their reincarnation, there are two possibilities: one is that they have an opportunity to encounter a messenger, convert to God, and start to repent, thus embarking on the journey to the kingdom of heaven. As for which lifetime they can enter heaven, it still depends on their own efforts.
The other possibility is that they don't have the opportunity to hear the gospel and generate faith. Rather, they still have no faith in God and will eventually fall. When they die, if their sins meet the conditions for going to hell, they will be sent there. They won't be reincarnated as humans or wait for judgment in the underworld.
Additionally, there is a group of people who don't meet the conditions of going to heaven or hell, and neither can they be reincarnated as humans in short time. They will wait in the underworld for a while, and the duration depends.
Thirdly, what humans call death is just the separation of the soul and the body.
......
Fourthly, rebirth is not resurrection.
......
Regardless of religion or denomination, as long as you believe in Christ, believe in God, believe in reincarnation, turn away from evil and do good, repent and reform, we are brothers and sisters, and our denominations share the same vision. So let’s unite to spread the truth.
