INCORRUPTION INCORRUPT BODIES
Most of us are aware of the awesome event
of the Resurrection of our Lord.
But, many do not know of a strange event
that occurred at the time of the death, then Resurrection of
Jesus.
Let's look into this strange occurrence,
shall we?
Matthew 27:50-51
Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud
voice, yielded up the ghost. And, behold, the
veil of the Temple was rent in twain from the top to the
bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent
... |
Now ...
This is saying that at the death of Jesus, the stones that
enclosed the sepulchres were knocked down and/or broken.
It
appears that other stones to other graves or burial tombs
were removed or "rent" by an earthquake as well according to
the next verses.
Matthew 27:52-53
And the graves were opened; and many BODIES of the saints
which slept arose, And came out of the graves AFTER His
(Jesus') Resurrection, and went into the holy city, and
appeared unto many. That is 3 days after His death when the
rocks were rent. |
Just
as Jesus' stonewas rolled away ...
Tho an angel moved our Lord's stone:
Matthew 28:2
And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of
the Lord descended from Heaven, and came and rolled back the
stone from the door, and sat upon it. |
INCORRUPTION BIBLE STUDY INCORRUPT BODIES MEANING
We must
remember that the burial procedure of the Israelites is different
than modern day ... Unlike today where most bury those who
pass from this realm to the next in the ground, they buried
their dead in sepulchers and had a large stone cover the
tomb.
We are told that the bodies of SAINTS exited the
tombs and appeared unto many AFTER the resurrection of
Jesus.
WHAT DOES
Now,
let's try and get a visual of this extraordinary event ...
Are we
to imagine decomposed bodies exited these tombs after many
years of being in there and walked around like zombies or
maybe in the linen that they are wrapped in at death making
em appear as a mummy?
Nehhhhhhhhh sounds more like a horror movie ...
Sooooooo ... That don't seem like what occurred.
Did
they have a physical body or like Jesus, a different body as
He told Mary:
John
20:17
Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet
ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto
them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my
God, and your God. |
But,
later told Thomas to stick his fingers into His wounds.
John
20:27
Then saith He to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold
my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my
side: and be not faithless, but believing. |
Hmmmmmm, I wonder ...
Now,
there is also the Lazarus theory ... This theory suggests
thatthese Saints were brought back to life, just as Lazarus
was.
John 11:43-44
And when He thus had spoken, He cried with a loud
voice, Lazarus, come forth. And he that was dead
came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes:
and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus
saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go. |
Were these Saints brought back to life as Lazarus was?
Hmmmmmm, Interesting.
What did these people see?
Were
these Saints ... In spirit form or humans in physical form?
Another question ... Since these were Saints of the past,
how were they recognized as being those past Saints by
modern day people?
Cameras were not invented yet.
Maybe
statues were made of the Saints and they recognized em, huh?
INCORRUPTION BIBLE VERSES INCORRUPT BODIES MIRACLE
Nehhhhhhh, just does not sit well.
How do
we explain how these people who saw these bodies of past
Saints, knew it was past Saints?
Somesuggest that they were recently deceased Saints and
that is how they were recognized.
Like
John the Baptist, who had recently had his head removed by
King Herod.
Still
others believe that these were Saints who were resurrected
as the firstfruits ofJesus at His own Resurrection.
But,
it seems they would have ascended with Him when He rose to
Heaven, but we know they were NOT there ...
He
alone ascended.
Acts 1:9
And when He had spoken these things, while they beheld, He
was taken up; and a cloud received Him out of their sight. |
And what about this
Scripture which shares that NO MAN ascended to Heaven ...
ONLY
Jesus.
John 3:13
And NO MAN HATH ASCENDED UP TO HEAVEN, but He that came
down from Heaven, even the Son of man (Jesus) which is in
Heaven. |
No,
these Saints were not spoken of again after...
We
know only that they showed up and were seen of many.
Which
brings up the Samuel theory ...
Maybe
these Saints were in spirit form, but appeared to many and
had the appearance of human form.
Saul
had Samuel brought up from His REST by a woman with a
familiar spirit (a spirit that acts as an assistant to a
witch or wizard) ...
1 Samuel 28:7-20
Then said Saul unto his servants, Seek me a woman
that hath a familiar spirit, that I may go to her,
and enquire of her. And his servants said to him,
Behold, there is a woman that hath a familiar spirit
at Endor. And Saul disguised himself, and put on
other raiment, and he went, and two men with him,
and they came to the woman by night: and he said, I
pray thee, divine unto me by the familiar spirit,
and bring me him up, whom I shall name unto thee.
And the woman said unto him, Behold, thou knowest
what Saul hath done, how he hath cut off those that
have familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the
land: wherefore then layest thou a snare for my
life, to cause me to die? And Saul sware to her by
the LORD, saying, As the LORD liveth, there shall no
punishment happen to thee for this thing. Then said
the woman, Whom shall I bring up unto thee? And he
said, Bring me up Samuel. And when the woman saw
Samuel, she cried with a loud voice: and the woman
spake to Saul, saying, Why hast thou deceived me?
for thou art Saul. And the king said unto her, Be
not afraid: for what sawest thou? And the woman said
unto Saul, I saw gods ascending out of the earth.
And he said unto her, What form is he of? And she
said, An old man cometh up; and he is covered with a
mantle. And Saul perceived that it was Samuel, and
he stooped with his face to the ground, and bowed
himself. And Samuel said to Saul, Why hast thou
disquieted me, to bring me up? And Saul answered, I
am sore distressed; for the Philistines make war
against me, and God is departed from me, and
answereth me no more, neither by prophets, nor by
dreams: therefore I have called thee, that thou
mayest make known unto me what I shall do. Then said
Samuel, Wherefore then dost thou ask of me, seeing
the LORD is departed from thee, and is become thine
enemy? And the LORD hath done to him, as he spake by
me: for the LORD hath rent the kingdom out of thine
hand, and given it to thy neighbour, even to David:
Because thou obeyedst not the voice of the LORD, nor
executedst his fierce wrath upon Amalek, therefore
hath the LORD done this thing unto thee this day.
Moreover the LORD will also deliver Israel with thee
into the hand of the Philistines: and to morrow
shalt thou and thy sons be with me: the LORD also
shall deliver the host of Israel into the hand of
the Philistines. Then Saul fell straightway all
along on the earth, and was sore afraid, because of
the words of Samuel: and there was no strength in
him; for he had eaten no bread all the day, nor all
the night. |
Were
these bodies the SOULS of these Saints that appeared unto
many and then returned to Bodies of the Saints?

MORE OF THIS BY READING THE
Bodies of the Saints
STUDY.
Sooooooooooooooo, as you can see ...
There
are too many possibilities to properly assess this event
without more information which is NOT available in the
Bible, soone would only be giving a theory to attempt to
explain this accurately.
UNLESS
GOD FOUND IT NECESSARY TO EXPLAIN IT.
INCORRUPTION SUMMARY INCORRUPT BODIES BLESSING
This
happens at times ... We read something and are unable to
explain it to ourselves, because the Bible does not give
further details.
Perhaps it is to be yet another Mystery of God.
Despite the reasoning for the Bible not sharing what form
these Saints were in or what happened to these Saints after
they appeared ...
Let us
never allow the inability to reason out something that we
read in God's Word ... Shake our Faith, as the earthquake
did the tombs of these Saints.
We are
NOT God ...
We are
to carry on in FAITH.
