WHY I DO NOT GRIEVE FOR LOVED-ONES WHO HAVE PASSED AWAY – WHEN CHRISTMAS COMES

[Apostle Terry Angel Mason]

 {Read About the After-Party in Heaven Following Earth's Christmas and New Year Celebration}

The Lord does not want me or anyone to be ignorant, about those who have fallen asleep in death [and are born-again], so that I do not grieve for them as the rest of the world; those who have no hope beyond the grave. For since I believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will also bring with Him through Jesus those who have fallen asleep in death when Jesus comes to Rapture the Church away from planet earth prior to the 7-year tribulation period.

I realize that the human spirit is fused together with the soul AND MANY OUT OF IGNORANCE BELIEVE THEM TO BE THE SAME] however, when a born again believer departs his or her body at the point of death, the soul and spirit (fused together -- Hebrews 4:12, 1 Thessalonians 5:23) go directly to be with the Lord; for Scripture says, “to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord,” – while the decaying body is left here on earth to be redeemed at the Rapture. This is how Jesus could bring the dead along with Him – yet come for them at the same time! Their bodies were left here awaiting the Rapture, while their soul and spirit were with Him in heaven (I Thessalonians 4:13-18, 2 Corinthians 5:8).

For this I declare to you (my brothers and sisters) by the Lord’s own word, that we who are alive and remain until the coming (day) of the Lord shall in no way precede into His presence or have any advantage at all over those who have previously fallen asleep (in death) who are believers.

For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a loud cry of summons, with the shout of an archangel, and with the blast of the trumpet of God. And the bodies of those whom have departed this life who are saved [resting in the grave shall be raised imperishable]; and then their bodies shall then be reunited with their spirit and soul, (for man is also a Trinity). I praise God from that depth of my soul that God’s redemption plan also includes the redemption of the spirit, the human body, and the planet (Romans 8:21-23).

Then we, who are living on the earth at that time shall simultaneously be transformed from mortal to immortal (in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye) and then be caught up along with [those whom have been resurrected] in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air; and so always through the eternity of the eternities shall we be with the Lord! Therefore, when someone I know or a loved-one who is dear to me passes away, I frequently mediate on this scripture (to ward off the spirit of grief) and comfort myself by remembering these enlightening words. Additionally, I encourage others whom maybe have lost acquaintances and/or loved-ones with this same liberating revelation from God's Holy Word..
