    Default Help.....Need A Scripture

    My mind goes blank more times than not these days. Does anyone know a good scripture to back up going to heaven or hell immediately after death? I have family members that believe they see ghosts of loved ones that have departed the earth. To my knowledge it's demonic spirits toying with them, but I would like scriptures from the word to back me up. Thanks in advance for any help.
    John 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

    Hebrews 9:27


    Paul said somewhere (need help): "To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord."

    (need more help): a great gulf fixed, such that none can cross...no one hath returned save (Jesus)?

    Revelation 4:1
    New International Version (©1984)
    After this I looked, and there before me was a door standing open in heaven. And the voice I had first heard speaking to me like a trumpet said, "Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this."

    Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. ~ Matthew 6:19-21 ~

    Pray Here is a Scripture for You...

    Hi, Fan4Sure...

    How about Hebrews 9:27?

    Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment,

    Have a blessed day!!

    I agree with the others... 2 Corinthians 5:1-8, 8 (see context).

    Amen! To be without Christ is playing Russian Roulett! You never know if you have an anurism about to burst, a clot about to cause a stroke or heart attack, a car runs a red light and plows into the side of your car, or just trip over something and hit your head. I know we each think, "I've got time", but you don't. Even if you don't die... Christ will come any second. Read Matthew 24 and tell me you do not recognize things happening . I know for the past 2000 years they have occured, but with the frquency and intensity they are occuring is urgent. grandma
