Oh

 

now were getting into the nitty gritty :-).

John 3:13

No one has ever gone into heaven except the one who came from heaven—the Son of Man.

and

Luke 23:43

Jesus answered him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.”

(Paradise being "with the presence of our lord" but he didn't say Heaven, he said paradise.

If he meant heaven I assure you its what he would have said.

He didnt.

And he prefaced what he said with "Verily", meaning, listen closely to what I  am about to say.

Nobody goes to Heaven until Christ comes back (For good) in final victory (Not some part one of a two part saga thats not mentioned anywhere in scripture.

If he doesn't really come all the way back but just raptures his church from the clouds in Part one of a two part 2nd coming?

Then where does everybody go?

How do they get there?

Who brings them back for the big fianl event?

Just some food for thought.

Like I said, Im just getting warmed up.

People would be wise to understand it's not MY theology that's being presented.
