The Fiery Wrath of God

                                John 11:25-26 KJB

The doctrine of the Church and the message of the King James Bible is that God possesses infinite Love and compassion. God will forever save even the worst of sinners if they repent and believe in the sacrifice of Christ their Savior. God will even save a coldblooded sociopath who is a serial killer if he repents and humbles himself to Christ. God would have saved even Hitler if he had repented. But why would God's infinite Love become ineffective just because people die? God's Love and compassion always remains the same. Hebrews 13:8 (KJB). The doctrine of the Church is that God will not save a person after his physical death even though no verse in the entire Bible states that. The Church teaches that God will not save any person confined to Hell. (Hell is actually divided into three regions called: the Sea, Death, and a burning Hell, but Hell is a general term for all three regions. Revelation 20:13 KJB) Jesus taught in John 11:25 that any person who believes in Him "though he were dead, yet shall he live." This verse can only mean that if any person already dead returns to faith in Christ, then Christ will restore him to life, just as He did with Lazarus. God's Love never fails. I Corinthians 13:8 (KJB). If God has the infinite power to save a sinner before they die, then He has that same power to save a sinner after they die.

The King James Bible happens to be the inerrant and infallible Word of God. This means that the phrase "though he were dead," in English, can only mean a person who is already dead.

Jesus further taught that a day will come when "all that are in the graves shall hear His voice," and He will raise them back to life. John 5:28-29 (KJB). Jesus could not have meant that this would be the Rapture of the Church because the Church will not be "all that are in the graves." Clearly, Jesus spoke about a final resurrection in the end of the world. Jesus will resurrect to life "they that have done good" which can only mean the good natures of all humans that He created in His image. Genesis 1:31; Genesis 1:26-27 (KJB). Christians will not be physically saved in the Rapture because they have done good but solely because they were spiritually saved by the grace of God apart from any good works. John 6:28-29; Ephesians 2:8-9 (KJB). Jesus further taught that He will condemn "they that have done evil" to "damnation." This can only mean that the good natures of those living humans and their evil natures are inside the beings of every human confined to the regions of death. Genesis 3:15; Matthew 13:36-43 (KJB). Christ will use His fiery wrath against evil to dissolve all their beings to separate their good and repentant natures from their dead and evil natures so that He can raise their good natures back to life, and He will condemn their dead and evil natures to an eternal lake of fire. Just as a good and living nature is a gift from God, a dead and evil nature is a gift from Satan. I Corinthians 3:11-15; II Peter 3:9-13; Revelation 20:5; Revelation 20:11-15 (KJB).

But since no living human can be saved from eternal death except through faith in the sacrifice of Christ in their place and the power of God to save them, then God has used His Almighty Intellect to devise a plan that will return every living human who ever lived to faith in Christ their Savior of their own free will. Romans 1:17; John 5:24; Revelation 5:11-14 (KJB). Jesus promised an unbelieving Pharisee that He will reward him for his good works "at the resurrection of the just." Jesus had to have meant that He will return that Pharisee, confined to the regions of death, to faith in Him as his Savior so that Jesus can raise him back to life and reward him for his good works. Luke 14:12-14; Revelation 5:11-14; Revelation 22:11-12 (KJB). Jesus also taught that "Every plant that my heavenly Father hath not planted shall be rooted up." Jesus could only have meant that His Father will utterly destroy all of the evil that the Devil has planted in every human, and He will save the good natures of all humans that He created. Matthew 15:13; Matthew 13:36-43; I Corinthians 3:11-15. How can anyone get around Jesus' promise that "Behold, I make all things new." Revelation 21:5 (KJB). God can never lose anything He has ever created, and His Love can never fail. Ecclesiastes 3:14; I Corinthians 13:8 (KJB).

In John 11:26, Jesus taught that all humans who return to faith in Him as their Savior while still alive in the flesh, He will immediately save from their sins and eternal death forever, and their souls and spirits will go directly to Heaven when they die, and they will await their physical salvation in the Rapture of the Church. They will be with Christ forever. John 5:24; John 3:3; I Thessalonians 4:13-18 (KJB).
