Nothing new under the sun. All things were made by him and for him. Do not fear. If you are sealed with the mark of YHWH you will be fine. Your flesh is temporary. Make no quick decisions. Pray about everything. God has you in the palm of his hands and he can supernaturally heal anything he pleases. He is the creator of those who create. He created Satan. I am done with looking at the world through the lense of my flesh. Spirit is all I have that I can depend on. YHWH have your will be done and thank you for allowing me to live in this time to experience all of this for myself. I cannot wait to be awakened into a greater consciousness. In the blink of an eye I shall be transformed. I shall shed corruptible and put on incorruptible. Praise God and his son who he sent to redeem me. Yeshua, Joshua, The living Christ!
Thanks! I've been hearing a lot lately about "ascension". But it's been mostly from non-Christian sources. The only ascension I am aware of is that of Jesus Christ. After his resurrection from the dead, and after being with his disciples 40 days He "ascended". He rose and a cloud took Him up. Would be interested on your thoughts regarding ascension.
A cloud. Think about a rocket and the cloud it leaves behind. So supernaturally christ ascended and it was such a mighty force that it left a cloud. When reading scripture you have to realize that they were trying to explain things in their time with their knowledge. We are different. We know more and therefore a lot of what they said back then makes no sense to us today. Christ ascended as in he was transformed in an instant and this was witnessed by many. He was transformed from flesh to spirit. From deminsion to deminsion. Most Christian’s have this wrong because they are following traditions that have been handed down. You have to take the totality of scripture and history into mind when pondering these things. The Bible is 100% true. Man has put their twist on it in order for personal gain. Take all commentary out and read scripture in the mindset of someone living in that time. Who what where when why and how. Always ask those questions. Be analytical. Heaven is ever present but we cannot see it as we were cursed in the garden. God put a blinder on us. Heaven is another word for deminsion. Gods ways and thoughts are so much higher than ours but he is the creator and we should put that #1 in our mind and heart. Just as we would with a living mother and father. We know nothing other than what they teach us. Yet we yearn to go outside and see what else there is.
You are being arbitrary when distinguishing "scripture and history" from "handed down traditions". Taking the totality of scripture and reliable history does not infer Christ transformed from flesh to spirit. Body and spirit are ultimately inseparable. Christ did not cease being a man. He is still physical but in the glorified body it is not the kind of physical we are accustomed to (passing through locked doors, ascending, etc).
The resurrection of the dead, of which Christ was the "first fruits", can be literally translated "standing up in the midst of corpses". The Greeks were repulsed by this teaching, i.e. that the body is good and necessary in the life hereafter. But it is true, our identity is inseparable from our physical body. It is the ancient Gnostics, Platonists, and now the LGBTQ+ and transhumanists and neo Gnostics who deny embodiment, who want you to think that the physical body is merely an obstacle to overcome to attain to true self, or ascension, or enlightenment, or whatever label you want to give it. God is the God of the physical and spiritual and he once called it all good, and on the last day he will redeem and glorify his people in both body and soul, not transforming it into some immaterial ethereality.
