The eternal dwelling place of the soul

Greetings to one and all in that mighty name of our Lord, and Savior, Jesus, the Christ, the "Anointed One".

In writing this post I know there's many through out the entire world, of whose mind dwells, or at least mildly ponders this subject quite often. With some, even having dreams about such at times as well.

Many also would like to find a person/person's, of whom would be able to prove to them, beyond a shadow of a doubt, this to actually exist. Not being able to do that, their next hope would be, someone who could prove this to be only a myth, or false hope's on some people's part.

I, myself, am a fulltime writer and an ordained minister. I've also spent many years trusting in the Bible and its teachings. I've also spent about ten years as sending out a Bible Study on the internet. What I'm saying here is: I'm no novice by no means, in fact, I'm well qualified to speak on this subject. For down through the years I've been well rooted and grounded in the Word of God..


Thomas, who has down through time been know by Bible believers as doubting Tomas was only convinced Jesus to have been truly the one who was crucified and resurrected, after Jesus let him feel the nail prints within his hands.

Jesus said unto them: blessed are they who see and then believe, but greater blessings rest upon them who have not seen and still believe. There were many signs shown to those that lived within Jesus’ day. Seeing is not always believing as we all know.


Sure God could roll back the heavens and enable all to see the mighty works of his hands or the home of the departed soul’s who have put their trust in him.
We live within a day and time now wherein there are all kinds of filtering systems. Why do we need or even want such around. There’s just many things we want to be private. There are things as well that we don’t want to share even with our closest friend. Also we want our water system well filtered in a good many city’s and our computer has filtering systems, to keep out the undesired and let that which is desired flow freely.


There’s an old gospel song that goes something like this: if you want to go to heaven you must come in by the door. That door my friend is Jesus. Not only the knowing about him, but being strongly bonded together with him. That bonding glue is faith. The Bible says: they that come to him must believe that He is: and that he is a rewarder of those who diligently seek him.


So you see: believing: is the filtering system used by our Almighty God. Yes, Jesus is the door true enough…but it’s faith that unlocks the door. How do we get faith if we don’t have it? The Bible lets us know: Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God.

Here’s hoping that all who read these few words become determined to press in and get the necessary faith to trust him and serve him as led by His Spirit.

Much love, your brother in Christ Jesus.

Bill.
