X-Message-Number: 31544 Date: Mon, 23 Mar 2009 07:21:32 -0700 (PDT) From: un person <> Subject: more of the immortalist bible The Bible says that Elijah, Elisha, Peter, and Paul raised the dead, as well as Jesus Christ. THe question is whether we ourselves should raise the dead? In the bible, Jesus told his disciples to raise the dead. from MATTHEW 10:8 "Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out demons. " further, Jesus told his disciples they were to teach others to do EVERYTHING He had commanded them -- even to the "end of the age." FROM MATTHEW 28:18-20 18 Then Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19 "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 "teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." Furthermore, Jesus said believers would also do the works that he did: from JOHN 14:12 12 "Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father." So, we ourselves are to act as Jesus commanded his disciples. And that means raise the dead. If you are a cryonicist, you are doing that part of what Jesus told you to do, and you will live forever by his side when the resurrection comes. A resurrection that we humans will carry out, acting in his name. Cryopreserving humans is a good start in making the resurrection happen!
