A Look Into The Spirit World

THE FATE OF THE HUMAN RACE
The angels must be laughing hard when they hear the debate among people on Earth as to whether life exists out in the universe or not. For many years, different governments have tried to debunk the fact that UFOs are flying around our world from time to time and they seem to originate from under the oceans.
There is one proven source that tells us that the human race is not alone in the universe and that is the Bible. The Bible clearly tells us about the angels, who are good and bad, and that God resides in heaven, which is a place somewhere outside our universe.
Jesus revealed future events on Earth and details about heaven in the Book of Revelation:
After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter.
And immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne.
And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald.
And round about the throne were four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment; and they had on their heads crowns of gold.
And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices: and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.
And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four beasts full of eyes before and behind.
And the first beast was like a lion, and the second beast like a calf, and the third beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying eagle.
And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come.
And when those beasts give glory and honour and thanks to him that sat on the throne, who liveth for ever and ever,The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying,
Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.
THE BEGINNING OF OUR UNIVERSE
God has always existed, He is eternal and has no beginning and no end. The Bible does not tell us what God has done for eternity, it is not revealed to us. But since He is a creative, multi-dimensional being, God the Father, His son Jesus and the Holy Spirit must have been doing great things that they might share with us once we are in heaven.
The Bible tells us that before the Godhead (the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit) started the creation we are in, they first created all the angels. There is no time given in the Bible. So, this could have happened billions of years ago.
Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding.
Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it?
Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof;
When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
The Bible gives us a description of the earth when Lucifer was the regent of the planet. This information was given to the prophets Isaiah and Ezekiel, who lived about 200 years apart. Isaiah got his revelation around 700 B.C.
Both of them record that Lucifer was the regent, there were kingdoms on the earth ruled by kings, and there were people on the earth living in cities engaging in commerce. (Isaiah 14:12-20; Ezekiel 28:14-19)
THE SPACE WAR
Since Jesus told us that there was a war in the universe, I assume that the earth is not unique, and on the trillions and trillions of planets that exist in the universe, there are similar angelic civilizations with people.
And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,
And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.
And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
THE TRIAL OF LUCIFER AND THE FALLEN ANGELS
Jesus told us in the Bible, that Lucifer and his angels are heading for the Lake of Fire. This indicates that there must have been a trial, that took place after the war.
Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
THE DEVIL (LUCIFER) IS STILL HERE ON EARTH
We who are living on earth know that the Devil is still here? Why? The assumption then is that after the trial, he appealed his sentence and stated the question, “How can a loving God cast his creature into everlasting torment?” And when the Godhead was accused by Lucifer of being unrighteous, this cast doubt in the minds of all holy angels. They questioned if God was truly righteous.
The apostle Paul addressed this issue when he stated that God was proving his righteousness.
But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
THE CREATION OF THE HUMAN RACE
To legally prove His righteousness, the Godhead created the human race. In order for them to have a planet to live on, the earth was refurbished by God and His Holy Angels in six days (each day for God is a thousand years according to the apostle Peter).
But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years and a thousand years as one day.
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
Here is how the human race is proving God’s righteousness: When a human decides to sin like Eve did in the Garden, she had a free will, she did not have to sin, but she choose to sin. This cannot be blamed on God, this was Eve’s fault.
Every time a human sins, he is doing this of his own free will and God cannot be blamed. When a human being repents from his sins and turns to God for forgiveness, this legally proves to the angels that a man does not have to sin. He can say no to sin.
The final proof will be given after the 1000 year kingdom, when the majority of the people on earth will choose to side with the Devil.
Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,
And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog, and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.
And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.
THE FATE OF THE HUMAN RACE
It does not matter what people believe, our fate was sealed before the foundation of the world. Once a human’s physical body dies, his soul, which is solid in the spirit world, will be taken to one of two waiting locations: Heaven or Hell.
In order to be flown to heaven, a person must have made a commitment to Christ, repented of his sins and put his faith and trust in the fact that Jesus paid for our sins on the cross.
Any person, regardless of religion, race, or gender who has not come to Jesus, but instead rejected him will be taken to hell, which is located in the middle of the earth.
There are two courts: one is in heaven and the other is here on planet earth. The one in heaven is named The Judgment Seat of Christ.
THE JUDGMENT SEAT OF CHRIST
As soon as a Christian arrives in heaven, he is given a court date. Jesus is the judge that presides in this court. Only if you are saved (born again in spirit), will you be appearing in this court. Every sin that you have committed before you were saved, will not be brought up. But all sins you committed after your salvation and you did not repent of will be brought up.
For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences.
For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.
He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:
Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?
For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.
It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me:
Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee?
And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him.
So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.
A person’s entire life is recorded in their soul brain, which is connected to their physical body. And just like we do with automobiles when we bring them to a repair shop, the mechanic connects the car’s computer to a laptop and in seconds any problems with the car are known and show up on a computer screen.
In a similar fashion when you stand before Jesus, your soul brain will be hooked up to a supercomputer, which in turn will project the story of your life on a giant screen. This will include every thought you had on earth. The screen will be blank until the moment of salvation. Any sin you repented of on earth will not be shown, only the sins you refused to repent from will appear.
Jesus will watch the movie of your life with you, and at the end, he will mete out judgment for sins you did not repent of and he will also mete out rewards and your eternal position in heaven, which will be on the new planet Earth in a new universe. Most Christians have done little work for God on the earth and they will be part of the labor force on the new earth.
Those who have sinned and not repented of it will be taken to a special prison, where tormenting angels inflict pain until the sins are paid in full, down to the last farthing (penny). Once you have paid for your sins, you will be let back into the general population in heaven, to wait for the time when the Marriage Feast of the Lamb takes place and then Jesus returns to the earth in what is called the Second Coming of Christ.
THE GREAT WHITE THRONE JUDGMENT SEAT
This court will be held on the planet Earth, after the 1000-year kingdom. All people from the time of Adam and Eve to the last person living on earth will be arraigned at this court where Jesus will preside as the judge.
For all people who were not saved (born again in spirit) and died, their souls will be brought up from hell and they will be given horrible-looking resurrected bodies that are indestructible. Jesus will not make any distinction between people with different religions, or what race they were on the earth.
If a person is not saved, they will appear at this court for judgment and sentencing. There will be some people born during the 1000-year kingdom who chose not to join Satan in the last rebellion and they will also be judged here and given rewards, losses, and positions on the new earth.
If people object and state that they do not believe in this process, they will be silenced and judged. This is the end for the unsaved humans, time is no more, and there is no mercy. There is just a horrible waiting period to see how severe their punishment is going to be in the Lake of Fire.
This is when people will realize, “I am lost, there is no hope, I will burn forever in the Lake of Fire.” There will be no scoffers here, no smart remarks, just weeping and gnashing of teeth as the truth is realized regarding their fate: eternal damnation.
And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.
And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.
And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
