In Heavenly Places

Over time, i have heard of arguments like, when does one go to heaven or blatantly where does one go when he/she dies? others think he goes to heaven directly, others think he goes to his/her final resting place until Jesus comes back and others think that its the end of the world for the deceased.

I will dwell on the argument, when does one go to heaven, is it when he dies or even before that, to my understanding One accesses heaven when he/she gets born again, except when he/she sins until when he repents and is re-united.

In Eph 2:6 we read,"and he hath raised us up together and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus"
:8" For by grace are ye saved thru faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God"
Rom 8:9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the spirit, if so be that the spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the spirit of Christ, he is none of his,
:10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the spirit is life because of righteousness;
:11
But if the spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his spirit that dwelleth in you.

At the point when one gets born again, (the Bible says; to all that have believed he has given unto them the power to be sons of God) the spirit(which resurrected Jesus) comes and dwelleth in them, this simply means that you only need to learn how to activate the spirit within you, your body is the temple of him who is holy, don't abuse it, try as much as you can to be righteous, Like in our Lord's Prayer, The kingdom will come on earth as in heaven, alive within you down here on earth and who knows you may even go to heaven without dying first. you have all the power to be a duplicate of Jesus here on earth

Enjoy being in the heavenly places, even when still on earth.

Immanuel
