This series is a Q&A segment which, due to its length, was divided into three parts so it could appear in Living Springs Institute's bimonthly publication - Shaqah. The question asked was, "I have been studying the Bible recently regarding death. A lot of questions arose due to me losing my son last year. One particular one is the idea of "heaven" and "hell". What is Hades, Sheol...etc. and I don't believe that my son is in heaven - I believe he is asleep. What does the Bible say about hell? Is it different from the lake of fire? Was it meant for Satan and his angels? What have you learned in studying God's word?" The answer covers many subjects relating to death and hell, such as grave sleeping, suffering, the body, being born again, heaven, Judgment Day, and much more!
All three parts of this Q&A, along with a special introduction to this series concerning its relationship to the series "A Matter Of Life And Death," are presented here without modification, just as they appeared in each of their respective issues of Shaqah. However, for convenience, each part has been republished in its own independent PDF file so you can read, save, and print them as you may desire.
This is the "Step Into The Springs" segment that introduced this series in Shaqah, and the fact it was appearing directly following the series "A Matter Of Life And Death," whose subject content is very related to this series.
Part I begins by discussing terminology problems that we have when talking about places and things the Bible is trying to tell us about. It goes over some of the terms asked about in the question and how we can see, as well as dispose of, corrupt pagan thinking we must break through in order to learn the truth!
Part II is a continuation of the discussion about terminology and goes into why certain terms for the subject of death are used in the Bible and what they actually tell us about the subject. This part also covers why we must die and defines what death actually is in terms of this life we now live.
Part III discusses what heaven and hell actually are as well as how and when we will be sent to one of these two places. It also answers the heart of the question this series is based on by explaining what actually happens to us in the time between death and going to heaven or hell.
