Beyond the Sunset Where are the dead?

John Quincy Adams Thoughts on his 80 th birthday “…John Quincy Adams is well. But the house in which he lives at present is becoming dilapidated. It is tottering up on its foundation. Time and the seasons have nearly destroyed it. Its roof is pretty well worn out. Its walls are much shattered and it trembles with every wind. I think John Quincy will have to move out of it soon. But he himself is quite well, quite well.”

Agenda Popular beliefs In-depth look at Hades – Definitions of hell – Place of torment – Place of paradise

Popular beliefs Heaven or Hell Soul sleep Hades I don’t know

Heaven or Hell Supporting scriptures – 2 Kings 2:11 – Hebrews 9:27 Refuting scriptures – John 3:13 – Matthew 25:31-46 DISCUSSION: What ‘heaven’ does 2 Kings reference?

Soul sleep Supporting Scriptures – I Corinthians 15:51-52 – 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 Refuting Scriptures – Luke 9:28-31 – Revelation 6:9-10 DISCUSSION: What do both of these passages require to support the idea of soul sleep?

Hades DISCUSSION: What does “hell” represent? – Hades occurs 10 times in Greek Text – Geenna “Gehanna” occurs 12 times in Greek text – Tartaroo “Tartarus” occurs once in Greek text 2 Peter 2:24 Primarily means “the unseen or invisible world… it is the common receptacle of disembodied sprits.” ~ Joseph Thayer Primarily means “a section of Hades reserved for punishment of the wicked ” ~ Merriam-Webster Dictionary Primarily means “the place of eternal punishment of the wicked, generally in connection with the final judgment” ~ International Standard Bible Encyclopedia

Hades Supporting Scriptures – Acts 2:29-35 – Luke 16:19-31 Place of torment Place of rest “paradise” – Luke 23:43; John 20:17 DISCUSSION: Does it matter if Luke 16:19-31 is a parable?

Points to ponder What if our view of the afterlife is incorrect? What is the benefit of studying this topic? – 1 Thessalonians 4:18

Conclusion Our spirits return to God at death Some beliefs don’t seem likely Hades seems like a viable option Hades will form the foundation for several future classes
