PLENTY TO DO IN HEAVEN & THE NEW EARTH
By John, 8/15/10
How can our spirits or souls go to heaven & play harps or walk on golden streets? Won’t our fingers just pass through the strings or our spirits float above the streets never touching the ground? Jesus said he came from Heaven and he was preparing a room for us. Why would a ghost need a room in God’s mansion? [John 14:2, Revelation 5:8]
Well, maybe Heaven is real and a physical place for non-physical beings, if that makes sense. In other words the place is made of spiritual bricks and mortar that spirits or souls can feel and touch. The spirits can touch each other & see each other & hear each other, get it? I can’t see x-rays flying through the air or through my body but a piece of film detects it & we see our insides. So much of what I can’t see is real, like love, faith, radio waves, quarks, etc.
The more science shows us that the impossible is real the more we disbelieve in Heaven & God, Hell & Satan. This is all reversed, we should believe even more in angels, demons and a real After-Life today, because we have discovered the hidden micro world of Quantum Physics and the & the untraveled expanding Universe itself!
Paradise or Heaven is a place for our spirits, but Jesus Christ was resurrected & ascended and has a body in Heaven. Enoch & Elijah have bodies in Heaven and Moses had a body on the Mount of Transfiguration, when he visited Jesus, Peter, James & John. The Catholics say that Mary the mother of Jesus is also in Heaven with a body. Are there spirits and fleshly beings walking and talking together in Heaven? In Heaven anything is possible, because it is the realm of God so why should it be limited to angels or spirits, only denying flesh & bone people entrance into a real place with: real gates, walls, crowns, harps, food, water, angels, speeches of praise, houses, gardens, singing & Jesus Christ?
My reason to believe in a real Heaven and a real New Earth, after the resurrection is that Jesus taught it and believed it. That’s good enough for me, because I’m not as spiritual or holy as Jesus & if it is something he wants us to believe and preach about--I will.

HOW DOES JESUS &/OR GOD SAVE ME & WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO?
SALVATION IN EVERY DAY LANGUAGE
BY JOHN L. DECOSSSAUX, 9/4/11
INTRO
I think the Bible & Salvation are the most difficult things to understand for me.
HOW TO BE SAVED
SOME IDEAS
By John L. Decossaux, 9/13/11
1. You confess that your: good deeds, works, knowledge, good looks, money, family back round, wisdom, love, intelligence, good works, liberal agenda that uplifts the pagan morality, Republican values of work hard & have rich parents or die, etc., can’t force God to save you or even forgive you.
2. You admit that compared to God, not man/woman, you are a terrible sinner. Even in your sleep & unconscious thoughts you are bad.
3. You acknowledge that God is King over angels, demons, Heaven, Hell, souls of everyone & that you are helpless to enter into Heaven unless God grants you a reprieve (You get to this state of mind by asking God to prepare you for Him).
4. You admit that you are no better or worse than any other human.
5. He has invited you to be with Him & you accept.
6. You promise that you will do anything He asks, because He knows the path that is safest & good & sacred.
7. You keep becoming convinced that Jesus the Christ, as portrayed in the Bible, is the only way to Heaven. You reject the theories of philosophy, current wisdom & science (1Timothy 6:20-21) that contradicts or ridicules the Bible’s salvation plan.
8. You get baptized & confess that you will serve him as the only way to Heaven.
9. You commit to a lifetime of loving God, Bible, and Church. You persevere in prayer, truthfulness, eliminating doubts, strengthening your faith, good works & witnessing about your Savior. You must rejoice, be thankful & learn to love Christians, family, sinners & Jesus more.
10. Hindu, Jewish, Moslem, Spirit Religions, Protestant & Catholic religions & denominations can’t save you only Jesus can. You can be born-again spiritually in any cult, religion, church or in front of a fake TV preacher or a lying website. But it would be best to follow the advice of the most humble, loving & holy Christian you know or can view and that’s the one that promotes Jesus formerly of Nazareth. Write down his new address: Jesus the Anointed One, 777 Red Cross Way, Paradise.
[PARTS OF THIS ARE ALSO FOUND IN http://MyReligiousQuestionsViews.YolaSite.com CONTRADICTIONS IN JESUS & THE BIBLE—SO WHAT ARE YOU IN OR OUT? BY JOHN L. DECOSSSAUX.]
YOU MIGHT BE LOST-ADVICE
If you don’t know about Jesus or you’ve been taught that he is evil or never existed, then you might or might not be lost. But if you have found & are connected to God in your mind then you will at least keep seeking the only true God of gods, & King of kings you will find Him. You might already be saved, but God wants you to progress to the fullness of truth. No parking allowed.
If He leads you left, right or center I suggest you go. Commit your life to God & whatever the spirit within you teaches.
If you won’t follow God, because of your cowardice or you’re afraid of your current religion’s condemnation you are on the road to becoming lost.
If you can but won’t follow because of selfishness, you are currently lost. Follow the light.
If you’re not ready to give up the fun & perks of sin you are currently lost.
If you feel badly about your addiction, sins or attitudes, but you refuse God until you can present your self clean & free then you are currently lost & may always be. Come as you are.
If you are stuck in stubbornness saying you’ve always been this cult, religion or non religion & you won’t change ever, you may be on the Broad Path of the Lost. God knows your heart.
If you are a new follower of God you may or may not ever mature into full obedience, but try.
If it takes five minutes to get an “A” in a class that’s fine, if it takes three hours of headache pounding study for the same “A” you must spend the time it takes. If five minutes of reading the Bible sends you into glorious heights & grants you confidence-fine, but if it takes three hours a day-do it. Salvation, faith & joy are more important than a stupid “A”. Take the Time it takes.
Have respect for God, because Hades Hell & the Lake of Fire Hell are real. Being rejected by God & refused entrance into Heaven will hurt more than all your other shameful moments combined.
You worry if you think you friend; parent, spouse, child, boss, teacher, coach or stranger are not on good terms with you. What about God? You’re right to worry about your Creator.
Recommit your life first thing in the morning & all through the day. You’re not saved through arrogance, apathy or ignoring the God, who is keeping you alive right now.
He has taken the time-33 years-just to die on the cross-to save you from the Lake of Fire (Gehenna). Take time to be with your Savior, lot’s of time.
The unexamined Christian life is probably a wasted life. Don’t take the chance that you’ll find your soul is in the bad place of pain, torment & hopelessness.
Be afraid to, but also have confidence in your salvation. It’s a balancing act on the fence, the only edge you have.
Do-doubt your salvation when you don’t act like a Christian anymore. You don’t do any good works, pray or read the Bible. You don’t attend Church, Bible Studies, Sunday school or Evangelism classes. You don’t listen to Christian music & media anymore. You hate your old Christian friends, Gospel Music, the Gospel, Creationists & martyrs. Blasphemy is your new language. You make jokes about God & religion. You wish religion & its followers would die.
Don’t despair that you are lost!! God is waiting with longing for you to return. He will run & meet you one third of the way with a robe of righteousness, a ring of authority over sin, sinners & the demons. He will bring you sandals of peace so you can talk about your Heavenly Father where ever you walk. You won’t hear it but the angels will shout for joy!!
THE BIBLE
Life is complicated for a person like me. Christianity is complicated. Truth is complicated. People are complicated. God is complicated. The Bible is demeaned & devalued by the mean spirited atheistic philosophies, sciences & bloggers. The Holy Bible is not a simply a myth or a bunch of unrelated stories. It’s not a collection of foggy memories or reports gathered up & placed in a book arbitrarily, for political motivations, power or money & then called sacred. The Holy Spirit brought memories to the minds of witnesses & shaped how they would be written down. The words of the Bible have shape our actions, thoughts, attitudes & beliefs. The Bible has the power to save us from Hell & transform us into sons & daughters of God. The Bible is not a scientific, secular, sexual, enlightening, elevating, epic quest, vacation reading, fictional journey, entertainment, mystery or history. It’s not a guess, a lie, blind faith, false hope, poetry, prose or a story to boost up a minority race’s status in its own eyes. It is not just to give us more out of this cursed, tragic & demented life.
The Bible is designed with instructions about the next life that we start to live now. The Kingdom is here inside of each believer. Jesus Christ will return as a visible King. Both statements are true. This is a practice life for the real life that never ends. Jesus brings an actual Kingdom to the Earth & it is called the Reign of God on Earth. The Bible will be replaced, eventually, with every word that comes from the mouth of Jesus Christ, but there will be a lot of quotes from the Bible. Will Jesus reign on earth for a thousand years? Yes & then after the fiery purification he will bring Paradise down to the New Earth that has no sinners or sin. I want to see you there, everyone who has read this, no matter how evil, bad, selfish, dumb or lost you were. Let’s start over with a new slate, a new heart & mind.
If you reject the Bible’s literal statements & prophesies then you are accepting the interpretations of men & women. Christians who follow the sciences & theology of men & women are Humanists. The idolatrous Humanists dilute or dismiss Jesus Christ, miracles, salvation from sin, Hades & the lake of fire. Jesus says to come to him & he will protect you from dying a second time & give you life the way he first created it to be.
“He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me:
and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father,
and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him” John 14:21, KJV
