This paper discusses the Old Testament teachings on heaven, hell, and spirits beings. All scriptures are from the King James' version Bible.

INDUCTIVE COMMENTS:

THEME: HEAVEN AND HELL EXIST: God is everywhere: heaven, earth & hell.

Genesis 1:1 "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth." Just as earth exist, so does heaven.

Deuteronomy 32:22 "For a fire is kindled in mine anger, and shall burn unto the lowest hell, and shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the foundations of the mountains."

Psalms 139:7-8 "Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence? {8} If I ascend up into heaven, thou <art> there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou <art there>."

PURPOSE: HEAVEN & RESURRECTION: Dead shall exist in body in a after-life.

Psalms 49:15 "But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall receive me. Selah."

Psalms 86:13 "For great <is> thy mercy toward me: and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell."

Isaiah 26:19-21 "Thy dead <men> shall live, <together with> my dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew <is as> the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead. {20} Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast. {21} For, behold, the LORD cometh out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity: the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain."

KEY VERSE:

Psalms 23:6 "Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever."

Psalms 49:15 "But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall receive me. Selah."

WHO: God mainly by Bible authors Moses, David, Isaiah, and Daniel

TO WHOM: Elected Christians

WHAT:

HEAVEN: Relationship with God. Be with the Lord forever.

Psalms 16:9-11 "Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope. {10} For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption. {11} Thou wilt show me the path of life: in thy presence <is> fulness of joy; at thy right hand <there are> pleasures for evermore."

Psalms 23:6 "Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever."

HELL: No relationship with God.

Psalms 11:5-7 "The LORD trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth. {6} Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and an horrible tempest: <this shall be> the portion of their cup. {7} For the righteous LORD loveth righteousness; his countenance doth behold the upright"

WHY: SAINTS RETURN WITH GOD: Saints return at a later time with God.

Deuteronomy 33:2 "And he said, The LORD came from Sinai, and rose up from Seir unto them; he shined forth from mount Paran, and he came with ten thousands of saints: from his right hand <went> a fiery law for them."

Zechariah 14:5 "And ye shall flee <to> the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come, <and> all the saints with thee."

WAY: EXAMPLES FROM OLD TESTAMENT PEOPLE:

A) ENOCH: God did not punish Enoch my taking him, but rewarded him.

Genesis 5:22 "And Enoch walked with God after he begat Methuselah three hundred years, and begat sons and daughters:"

Genesis 5:24 "And Enoch walked with God: and he <was> not; for God took him." His reward was not dying.

Hebrews 11:5 "By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God."

B) DAVID: David believed in a after-life.

2 Samuel 12:22-24 "And he said, While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept: for I said, Who can tell <whether> GOD will be gracious to me, that the child may live? {23} But now he is dead, wherefore should I fast? can I bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me. {24} And David comforted Bathsheba his wife, and went in unto her, and lay with her: and she bare a son, and he called his name Solomon: and the LORD loved him."

C) ELIJAH: God did not punish Elijah my taking him, but rewarded him.

2 Kings 2:1 "And it came to pass, when the LORD would take up Elijah into heaven by a whirlwind, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal."

2 Kings 2:11 "And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, <there appeared> a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven." His reward was not dying.

D) JOB: Job, the oldest book, a after-life in the body with God exists.

Job 19:25-27 "For I know <that> my redeemer liveth, and <that> he shall stand at the latter <day> upon the earth: {26} And <though> after my skin <worms> destroy this <body>, yet in my flesh shall I see God: {27} Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; <though> my reins be consumed within me."

WHEREAS: HEAVEN & RESURRECTION: Dead shall exist in body in a after-life.

Psalms 49:15 "But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall receive me. Selah."

Psalms 86:13 "For great <is> thy mercy toward me: and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell."

Isaiah 26:19-21 "Thy dead <men> shall live, <together with> my dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew <is as> the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead. {20} Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast. {21} For, behold, the LORD cometh out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity: the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain."

Isaiah 57:1 "The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth <it> to heart: and merciful men <are> taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil <to come>."Death may be good.

Daniel 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." Everlasting: life = heaven & contempt = hell

WHERE: Earth

WHEN: All Times

WHILE: ANGELS AND DEVIL EXIST IN HEAVEN: Devil = Satan, Lucifer, Accuser

A) SATAN:

1 Chronicles 21:1 "And Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked David to number Israel."

Job 1:6 "Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them."

Isaiah 14:12-15 "How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! <how> art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! {13} For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: {14} I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. {15} Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit."

B) ANGELS:

Psalms 104:4 "Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire:"

Daniel 10:5 "Then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins <were> girded with fine gold of Uphaz:"This is an angel who takes fights 21 days to Daniel.

Daniel 10:13 "But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia."

Michael is prince angel for Israel (10:21), King of Persia is Devil

Zechariah 3:1 "And he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the LORD, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him." The angel of the Lord, I believe is Jesus. An example fot the same reference: Exodus 13:21 (called LORD), 14:19 (called angel of God), 23:20-21 (called angel who pardons sin; however, only God can pardons sins), & Deuteronomy 1:32-33 (called LORD your God).
