“NO MAN CAN TELL WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO A
PERSON WHEN HE DIES UNTIL HE HIMSELF EXPERIENCE DEATH. SO, WHO CAN TELL US THE
TRUTH ABOUT DEATH?”
ITS TRUE THAT “no man knows
what will happen to a person when he dies,” but the Bible is not the words of
man, but the words of God. No man can tell what happen to a person when he dies
because man’s knowledge is limited. However, God’s knowledge is not limited
like man. He is omniscient or He knows everything:
“For
if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.”
(I John 3:20 NKJV)
Because God knows all things, He
declared “the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things not yet
done”:
“Declaring
the end from the beginning, And from ancient times things that are not yet
done, Saying, 'My counsel shall stand, And I will do all My pleasure,'” (Isaiah
46:10, NKJV)
The Lord God committed His words
in writing through His servants like the Prophet Jeremiah:
“This
is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: 'Write in a book all the words I have
spoken to you.” (Jeremiah 30:2 NIV)
The words of the Lord God are
written in the Holy Scriptures (which we call today as “the Bible”)
“And
you remember that ever since you were a child, you have known the Holy
Scriptures, which are able to give you the wisdom that leads to salvation
through faith in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful
for teaching the truth, rebuking error, correcting faults, and giving
instruction for right living, so that the person who serves God may be fully
qualified and equipped to do every kind of good deed.” (II Timothy 3:15-17 TEV)
The Holy Scripture (the Bible) is inspired by God. Thus, it is true that no man can tell what will happen to a person when he dies, however, the Bible is the inspired words of the All-Knowing God. Hence, let us reject man-made teachings or notions (unbiblical concepts, unscriptural perspectives), and accept the Bible as the authority not only regarding what will happen to a person when he dies, but also regarding the worship of God, religion and salvation.
