Reincarnation is NOT possible and here's why....

a reply to: DeathSlayer
Sometimes I wonder which is a worst outcome .... The end is just an all encompassing blackness of entropy..... or that we keep getting reincarnated/resurrection into this $h1tstorm every time.

Don't even have to read it... the title says it all..

Dare ye put limits on God?

lol... Good luck with that

Reincarnation has nothing to do with God. If reincarnation was something God AND his many prophets would have spoken up and been clear on its teachings.....right rabbi?

It does however have to do with the dark side.

Now on the other side resurrection is often spoken about.....

I have no ideas of being reincarnated? Neither any of my friends or family members, and a thousand or so of other people.....

Rest assured that there is something waiting on us ...... everyone of us ......

Hope - believing in the unseen....

We can all hope.... yet there are many who have seen and even out of fear and persecution have stood up and told their stories of heaven and hell....

I am one of these guys.....

Oh and my god has shown me my past lives and I'm going to be a racoon in my next life.

And by the way Jesus spoke of reincarnation...

Going from human to raccoon? Sounds like punishment to me from being an image of God to being an animal way down on the food chain.

Good luck I hope your next reincarnation after living the life of a wild animal will not drop you down to an insect or to a single cell being analyzed under a microscope.

WRONG - Jesus spoke of the resurrection NOT reincarnation.

a reply to: DeathSlayer

I will experience all types of life. You may think it is a punishment but your book teaches animals are just unfeeling beasts they are not.
I will be human again and also not of this earth also.
My spirit will experience it all.

You're splitting hairs here with resurrection v. reincarnation.

Not at all.
Resurrection happens once, into a different kind of body, and is what the New Testament describes.
Reincarnation is supposed to happen many times, indefinitely, and that is what the New Testament rules out.

Actually long ago .... according to my holy books ..... mistreating and abusing an animal could led to the death sentence....so you do not know what my book teaches.

Maybe their are issues within your religion as well since you are not aware of mine?

Jesus spoke of John the Baptist being elijah I think.

It doesn't...

You're talking about Hebrews 9:27 right?

very clearly...

to anyone that isn't of the Christian persuasion unfortunately

a reply to: Akragon
Not just that verse, but every other passage in the New Testament, including the teaching of Jesus, which talks about the judgement.
The judgement is what the New Testament has instead of reincarnation.
Or rather, belief in reincarnation is a hopeful way of evading belief in the judgement.

And there is NO other interpretation? The answer being reincarnated?

This is why the church originally banded the bible.....everyone's opinion based upon their interpretation... Now I do not support their ban I understand its original purpose.....(It was not only for control the population ..... but to control heresy and false teachings which ended up turning on them due to the METHOD they used .... their teachings were overall good for that time - it was their methods used (torture and murder) which makes it infamous...not the teachings.....the punishments.....

Everyone has its own interpretation..... and not everyone is right.

Remember this.....there is ONLY one right answer...reread the multiple choice answers...you got this one wrong.

Again - Let those with discernment understand.....

and IF the Judgement is... You're coming back here for another round?

Or is God not capable of such things?

the fact is we don't know what comes after "judgement" unless one believes in "heaven or hell" which is dogmatic

neither the old or new testament tells us what happens after death... we are told we will be judged on our actions.. or beliefs IF one prefers paulian thought

Jesus makes clear blatant statements in the gospels... and i personally believe the idea was removed from texts to promote the need for the priesthood

transmigration of the soul was always a jewish/hebrew belief... and still is

a reply to: DeathSlayer

Then maybe don't talk like animals are inferior to us then. saying it would be a punishment to be a racoon....and dropping down? yeah sure sounds like you see other animals as inferior.

a reply to: DeathSlayer

And there is NO other interpretation?

HE said this IS elijah...

sure John said NO... but who would know the truth of the matter?

John or Jesus?

Yes we do.
"And so we shall always be with the Lord" (2 Thessalonians ch4 v17) Obviously Paul is addressing fellow-believers.
"Come, O blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you" (Matthew ch25 v34)
The last two chapters of Revelation say the same thing in pictorial language.
