[Vision2020] I like to think there really is a Heaven . . .

[Nielsen, Ralph]

Thanks for the varied replies. I was testing your biblical literacy, specifically knowledge of the Old Testament/Hebrew Bible.

In the OT there is no life after death for anybody. If you know of any exceptions I'd like to hear about them.

Nor is there such a thing as a "soul" that is separate from the body and survives it after death.

In the OT there is no such "place" as a hell because hell has not yet been invented. So if post mortem torture excites you, you'll have to retreat to the Christian New Testament.

Satan as a personality appears only twice in the OT and here he is a member of God's heavenly household, not an enemy of God.

Jesus Christ is not even mentioned in the OT let alone prophesied.

Please note that I am not presenting these statements as matters of personal belief. They are simply matters of fact about the Old Testament of the Bible that you can check for yourself.
