Falling Asleep in Christ : A Collection of Essays on Golgotha, Paradise, and the New Testament Meaning of "Falling Asleep in Christ"

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Did Golgotha change not only the power of death, but the very meaning of what it means to die In Falling Asleep in Christ, John Hultink challenges conventional Christian understandings of death, heaven, and Paradise, arguing from Scripture alone that Christ's victory on Golgotha brought about a radical transformation in the believer's relationship to death. Whereas sleep once signified death in the Old Testament, Hultink contends that after Golgotha, to 'fall asleep in Christ' means to remain consciously alive in Him, awaiting the final resurrection.Through a careful examination of Scripture, particularly the awakenings of Jairus's daughter and Lazarus, as well as Paul's writings on 'falling asleep in Christ,' Hultink argues while standing on the foundation of Scripture that Jesus anticipated and demonstrated this extraordinary reality before His crucifixion.The central question is not simply what happens when Christians die, but whether we have fully grasped what Christ accomplished on Golgotha when He conquered death. Golgotha is the key to understanding what it means to 'Fall Asleep in Christ.'. Artikel-Nr. 9781998711741
