Insight...from my Dad

I have a praise item...My dad has been cooking dinner for me this whole week & has done soo much of the cleaning in the house...I’m thankful for that. That was supposed to be my job too during this week. Actually, wait a minute, his back isn't even fully healed yet from last time's accident, why is he doing all tht?!? I guess he saw that I was so busy & stressed out, nd had no time management skills wutsoever. So he decided to do me a favor. Can't let him do tht stuff anymore...I think i should do wut im responsible for any way. Wut else I found out…MY dad can cook! Realized tht after today. Thnx dad!

Anewayz, during dinner, we had a discussion lol (love those).

We talked about ghosts & spirits & souls. The topic came up cuse I brought it up. Reason being, was because my accounting class today, randomly had this discussion about ghosts and if they were real or not. lol it was kinda jks, cuse half way, we all started tellin ghost stories...which was somehow related to "Partnerships in a Business". Soo anewayz, during tht short lil discussion, I suddenly questioned myself: ARE there really ghosts/spirits? If so, whose spirits are they?

So, at the dinner table, I asked my dad: "Do you believe in ghosts/spirits?". Cuse the only spirit I only believed/knew of was the Holy Spirit, which came from God. But I was referring to more of the spirits from the dead, or spirits that still linger around and haunt you. Tht's wut the class was talking about. I really wanted to know about it. I wanted to know, if there were really such things as “haunted houses” and “haunted streets”. Anewayz, I forgot what he answered, but it lead to the next question:

Me: "What kinds of spirits are there?".
My dad answers: "If they're not God's spirit (Holy Spirit), then who else’ can it be? (implying the devil’s spirit)".
(My dad never answers a question with an answer. He always answers using another question…to make me think.)

Me: But what about spirits of the dead?
Dad: Those are actually the devil's/satan’s spirit, in the form of a human soul which can often be deceiving.

So to answer the question b4, it’s not the spirit of real dead ppl that haunt you, but demonic spirits that appear to be human spirits.

But u no sumthin new i found out today...when we die, we don't go straight to heaven...or hell. We become "asleep" (as the Bible puts it) until the second coming of Jesus. So technically, the statement ppl make when someone dies "he/she has gone to heaven..." is incorrect. We actually do not know happens to the soul when someone dies and where it lies, b4 Jesus comes back. But i kinda assumed that the souls are still on this earth, still inside the body, and is just waiting to be awakened (opinionated). That's why on the day of Jesus' glorious return to earth, it is known as the day of "judgement". All souls will rise from their dormant state, and God will look at His Book of Life, and determine those who are with HIm...and those are not. Also, around that time (after 7 years), He throws satan, his angels, and his followers into the lake of fire (known as hell). So againnn, technically, NoBody's in hell yet (at the moment). Satan's not even in hell yet. In fact, He is yet to be released, from the prison that God has caged him in...which during that time, is known as the rapture, or Apocalypse (which lasts for 7 years). Those who are still on earth, who are NOT yet believers are given a chance to believe (but they get it hard…cuse there will be torture nd suffering). Those who believe, would have already been taken to heaven by God. So tht’s wut I learned today. Well, half of it’s new to me. I dunno if u guys ever watched the movie “The Revelations”. It’s about the rapture, I got so scared fr a couple of days after watching. I checked my parents’ bedroom every now and then to make sure they were still there.

Sorry if this wus a bit hardcore, fr some ppl who don’t really know the context/background of this. Don’t really know wut ppl think of it. Esp ppl who aren’t christian. This blog was meant more fr ppl who wanna study or know mre about…the end of the world, and jesus’ second coming. Srry if ur reading my blog, nd have no idea wut im talking about.
