    Well, you're not exactly right, but you acknowledge that the OT does?
    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

      Ah, trying to poison the well I see. Sorry HA but It is mentioned in various other places in the bible too, even the OT. But you would know that if you had ever actually read the bible.
      Basically God is going to remake the universe to the way he originally made it before the fall. And that is where we will live. We are not going to spend eternity floating around on clouds in some spiritual afterlife.

      But you know what? It doesn't really matter what YOU think. I was merely telling you what Christians believe.

        Awfully ironic coming from someone who regularly pads her posts feeling the need to show that "I knows stuff" whenever you don't have anything on topic to add.

          You have it all wrong - she's here for the Christian fellowship.

            History has proven not to be your forté either.

              Where does Revelation mention technology and vehicles?

              I also sincerely doubt that all Christians have your materialistic expectations about the afterlife.

              Remember there are no pockets in shrouds and as with Everyman all that will go with you are your good deeds.

                    Why assume Paul got it all correct? What about the Epistle of James? Why disregard one text of "holy writ"?

                      Ah, the infamous alleged disagreement between Paul and James on faith and works.

                          The texts are quite explicit.
