DOES GODS TRUTH - HIS DOCTRINES PUT HIM IN A BOX ?

 

There are people that view the doctrine of the resurrection as putting GOD in a box.  They continue on to say that GOD made a donkey talk, allowed HIS son and Peter to walk on water and that there are people who have perished from the earth to suffer until the last days before the final judgment, that he says this means these suffering must be alive in order to suffer.  

The first two reasons given have nothing to do with the idea of what happens in death.  The last one seems to be referenced to the parable of Lazarus and the rich man.  Jesus told his disciples that he would only speak in parables to those who it was not given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of GOD.  Matthew 13:10-17  Mark 4:33-34  Therefore Lazarus and the rich man is a parable and cannot be taken literally.  

The actual meaning is hidden from these people who try to use it to prove immediate life after death.  GOD gives us HIS doctrine, HE teaches HIS doctrine to HIS saints and this doctrine never changes.  Hebrews 6:2 states the resurrection is doctrine. How would it be if GOD would change HIS doctrine in the course of HIS plan for humanity?    

The truth of GOD is called sound doctrine, 1 Timothy 4:16  Romans 16:17  GODS doctrine does not put HIM in a box.  How can GOD, who establishes doctrine put HIMSELF in a box ?  How do HIS elect saints who believe HIS doctrine put GOD in a Box ? 

These peoples belief in immediate life after death violates the doctrine of the resurrection of the dead and they put themselves in a box, the huge box of deception.  It scrambles the meaning of life and death by attempting to combine the two.  These people are described in 2 Timothy 4:3   Romans 16:17-18  These people say GOD can do anything HE wants to so instant life after death cannot be ruled out.  These people are correct, GOD can do anything HE wants to and HE has, HE has 2 resurrections of the dead that are HIS established doctrine recorded in scripture. 

  The resurrection is an important part of the gospel. These people look at certain scriptures and see in them that which is a lie.  It is very plain in the scriptures that the only way anyone will ever live again is by a resurrection from the dead at the return of Christ. This idea of immediate life after death is a different gospel.  Galatians 1:8   

These types of people will not receive the truth because their deception is too great.
