Lesson
11
Life
After Death
Joh 6:40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one
which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I
will raise him up at the last day.
1Th 4:13 ¶ But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren,
concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have
no hope. 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also
which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. 15 For this we say unto you by
the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the
Lord shall not prevent [=precede] them which are asleep. 16 For the Lord
himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the
archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in
the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
Joh 14:1 ¶ Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God,
believe also in me. 2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not
so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and
prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that
where I am, there ye may be also.
Php 1:20 According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in
nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also
Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death. 21 ¶ For to me to live is Christ, and to die
is gain. 22 But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet
what I shall choose I wot not. 23 For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a
desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better:
1Co 15:51 ¶ Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep,
but we shall all be changed, 52 In a
moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall
sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 53
For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on
immortality. 54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and
this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the
saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. 55 O death, where is
thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?
2Co 5:10 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.

(1) Ge 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground,
and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living
soul.
(2) Ec 3:20 All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn
to dust again.
[Ec 12:7 Then shall
the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God
who gave it. Da 12:2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall
awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.
Isa 66:24; Mt 25:46; Joh 5:28-29; Ac 24:15; Ro 9:21 Isa 66:24 And they shall go
forth, and look upon the carcases of the men that have transgressed against me:
for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they
shall be an abhorring unto all flesh. Mt 25:46 And these shall go away into
everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal. Da 12:2; Joh
5:9,29; Ro 2:7 Ac 24:15 And have hope toward God, which they themselves also
allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and
unjust.]Ec 9:5 For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not
any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is
forgotten. Job 7:8-10; 14:21; Ec 1:11; 2:16; Isa 26:14; 63:16 and Ec 9:6 Also
their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have
they any more a portion for ever in any thing that is done under the sun.
[Heb 9:27 And as it
is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
2Co 5:10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ;
that everyone may receive the things done in his body, according to that he
hath done, whether it be good or bad.
Mt 25:31-32; Ro 2:6; 14:10; Ga 6:7; Eph 6:8; Col 3:24-25; Re 22:12
Re 20:12 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. Jer 17:10; 32:19; Da 7:10; Mt 16:27; Ro 2:6; Php 4:3; Re 2:23;
3:5; 13:8; 19:5; 20:13; 21:27; 22:12 and Re 20:13 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. {hell: or, the grave}
Re 6:8; 20:12]
