The study provides an in depth look at the doctrine of the eternal soul, purgatory, eternal punishing, hell, heaven, and other topics relating to death and the afterlife. We will deal with Biblical and historical facts and not Greek philosophies or interpretations. Technically, what does the Bible have to really say about the condition of the dead, the concept of hell, eternal punishing, is there life after death or more specifically what happens when you die according to the Bible. We’ll focus, once again, in proper terminology. I will warn you in advance this will be a shock for most of you. What the Bible says about these doctrines are not the same thing that the majority of our pastors, teachers, preachers, that is mainstream “Christianity”, are teaching in our churches today.

This is a power point Bible study presentation presented in the summer-fall of 2022. These studies are years of research, schooling, feedback, and deep studies for the last 20+ years, compress for this type of format. I will do my best to answer question that you may have at a reasonable time frame. I do apologize in advance if I do not reply quickly to your emails, due to my small amount of personal time, it is difficult to do so.
As you watch the studies you will notice some bold underline words, please disregard these effects. These bold underline terms are used for our fill in the blank worksheet. May you find the studies helpful and informative as many brothers and sister have in the past. All the glory to Yahweh (יהוה)! Enjoy the studies. 😊

Note to parents: The studies are family friendly, but I will not recommend children under the age of 10, they may get confused or it could be too complicated for them, but I’ll leave that to the parent to decide.
