Why Do We Call God, Jesus, and The Holy Spirit The Trinity?
Dr. E explains that the Trinity isn’t named in the Bible, but it’s clearly taught—one God, three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Do you believe you go to heaven after you die? I’m just curious. I noticed you have been using “new heaven and new Earth” and such and I was just curious if you believe you go to heaven right after you die.
“It is interesting that Jesus tells the thief today you shall be with Me. Yet, Jesus was also resurrected after three days. It is worth mentioning the two compartment theory paradise. This is where all those who have died before Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection resided. After Christ’s death, He brought those in this paradise to heaven.
Paul writes of the third heaven 2 Corinthians 12:2-4, ‘caught up into Paradise, heard inexpressible words’. So while Scripture is not specific on the time and place of our resurrection, we do know we will be with Christ. And from Revelation 21, the new heaven and new earth will include the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from heaven. He will dwell with us, we will be His people, God Himself will be among us, and He will wipe away every tear. No longer will there be death, mourning, crying, or pain.”
