The transfiguration begins in Matthew 16:28 “Truly I say to you, there are some of those who are standing here who will not taste death until they see the son of man coming in his kingdom.”
Then 6 days later Jesus took Peter, James and John up a high mountain and there Jesus was transfigured before them. Then appeared before them Moses and Elijah talking with Jesus. Matthew 17:1-3
Some say this is proof that the dead are conscious and alive and could engage in conversation with Jesus. This event was actually the continuation of the comment made by Jesus in Matthew 16:28 This was a vision of Jesus in his kingdom as Matthew 17:9 plainly says. “Do not tell anyone about this vision…”
As you should know the kingdom did not arrive. The transfiguration was a vision of the kingdom and you should also know that the first resurrection takes place at the arrival of the kingdom. Therefore in this vision Moses and Elijah have been resurrected from the dead and glorified. The idea they were dead but yet conscious is grossly inaccurate and displays a serious lack of spiritual understanding. The division between chapters 16 and 17 tends to give the false impression that the last verse in chapter 16 has nothing to do with the events in chapter 17 when read by a someone attempting to prove immediate life after death. This is very common among carnal thinkers. For those intent on believing in the lie of immediate life after death this explanation of the transfiguration will not be accepted. For GODS elect this is the true explanation as the spirit of the FATHER has revealed to us. There is no life, no consciousness after death and the only way to be conscious and alive again is by a resurrection from the dead. This is the true doctrine of GOD.
Hebrews 6:2 “of the doctrine of baptisms, laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead and everlasting judgment.”
Strongs Concordance article G1322 “didache” means teaching, doctrine or instruction.
There is no amount of proof I can give that will convince anyone that what I have written here is true, only the FATHER can do that.
