Gubaa na anang barahaa oi... ilisig lain.. bangkaha.


So budhha ascended into heaven? died and was ressurected? Btw, I just saw a documentary of chinese burials, they need to look as presentable when facing budha when they die, cause they will be judge according to how they look. mondo cane.. something like that. i dont know if its true.. but i also dont know if it is not.

Did Jesus really ascend into heaven? He must be some kind of ET! Another great MYTH

Will hes ET if thats what you think at least hes not like budha who has set to many years that he has forgotten to exercise, and besides he could go up and fly like an ET since he has no powers at all.

Did Jesus ascend bodily into heaven?

Corinthians 15:50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.

Paul fervently portrays the Resurrection as spiritual, not physical: "a natural body is sown, a spiritual body is raised" (1 Corinthians 15.44, speiretai sôma psychikon, egeiretai sôma pneumatikon, see also 15.50), and he ardently insists (Galatians 1.11-24) that he was not taught the gospel by anyone in the flesh ("I did not consult with flesh and blood," ou prosanethemên sarki kai haimati, 1.16), but by revelation from God ("I did not receive it from a man nor was I taught it, but through a revelation of Jesus Messiah," oude gar egô para anthrôpou parelabon auto oute edidachthên alla di' apokalypseôs Iêsou Christou).

The question then becomes: why is spectacular about a spirit rising? Doesn't everyone's spirit rise after death according to Christian mythology? What then was special about Jesus?
