Thoughts from a Random Mind

Can a dead man come back to life?

                  The answer to that is YES. First example is from the gospel of John 11:1–44.  Lazarus, a friend of Jesus, had died. Jesus came and raised him from the dead to show those present the power of God.  The second example is Jesus Himself rising from the grave. There is also a third example. 

                  Do you realize that we are all walking, talking dead men and women prior to our conversion? When a person receives Christ into their heart and life their spirit is jump started.  We are no longer dead, but very much alive, spiritually speaking. Without the redemption provided by Jesus blood, we will die in our sinful state. 

                  The unredeemed soul is born once, but dies twice. He is born physically, but when he / she dies it is both their physical body and their spirit that dies. The redeemed soul is born twice, and dies once. They are born physically and when they receive salvation they are born spiritually. So when they die their body dies; however, their spirit lives on throughout eternity with its creator. Therefore, they are born twice, yet only die once.

                  Can a dead man come back to life? If that person has received Christ in their heart, then YES, they certainly can. Until next time, walk with the King & be a blessing. 

In His Name & for His Glory,
