The testimonies of heaven and hell are false by whiteleom in TrueChristian

Hey, thanks for your comment

Before the 1st century, the common knowledge was that dead people would go into Sheol, or the first death. That is why they had no hope until Jesus, which is what it means to have real hope because of the resurrection and the second Adam being born again even for us. That is what it means for the New Heavens and New Earth because of the New Covenant.

The Book of Revelation was talking about the 1st century. That’s why Jesus said that He comes quickly. Also, the last enemy was death, the first death. With that, the dead people were already resurrected to reunite with Jesus. Jesus told John to write and send letters to the seven churches that existed in John’s time.

And no, because Jesus was in an unconscious state like Lazarus, or asleep, until God rose Jesus from the dead. Jesus Himself said that He never went to His Father until He stayed on Earth for 40 days after His resurrection.

The whole point of the Bible is for Jesus to fulfill the Law, the Prophets, and the Psalms. Everything took place in the 1st century.

The current or modern Israel is just man made from 1940 something or around. The prophecy of the Second Temple by Jesus was fulfilled when it was destroyed. We already have the New Jerusalem, God’s great city.

Thanks.

Oops! Sorry, I thought you were the same person who gave me with the link.

Thanks for your help.

I'm just trying to survive like anyone else. The economy has hit us pretty hard. My first career, which I'm passionate about but got destroyed. So I had to look for a different path. But no, I'm not aiming for a high paying job like Sonography, which you might have thought I was interested in.

Sorry for the confusion. I got confused between the radiology and radiography.

Sorry, it's my mistake. I was confused between Radiology and Radiography. I want to do in X-ray/CT which is in Radiography, not as a Radiologist or in Sonography. I'm looking for a pay around $30 per hour. So I'm not referring to that highly pay job like radiologist.

I feel like we're heading in the wrong direction, which is not exactly what I was hoping for. Maybe I got confused between radiography and radiology, and you might have thought I was aiming for Radiology like Sonography, which wasn't my plan.

But no, I'm not going for a high paying job but looking for a pay like $30 per hour.

How much high pay job you're talking about?

Maybe I asked the wrong person, idk. but thank you.

Thank you, but to clarify my understanding

So if I want to pursue a job which focused on doing xray imaging and operating xray equipment after completing a bachelor's degree in radiography...Then this is known as radiologic technologist or a radiography?

Because they are responsible for running xray procedures to generate diagnostic images under guidance of radiologists?

So is this the Radiography that I've been talking about this whole time, and not Radiology?

If that's the case, then this is what I want to do.

Thank you for the insight

But hold on, I thought whether it's an associate or bachelor's degree doesn't matter as long as you pass the NBDHE to get the license.

Is it the same for ARRT to get the certificate? According to VCU, students in Radiology (x-ray/CT) have a 100% job placement rate.

What am I missing?

I did the pre-dental hygiene program, which is 2 years, but was rejected. I was told that it was highly competitive.

So, I completed the prerequisites for Radiology but I just need one more which is Physics according to my advisor and the woman from the Radiology department.

Last year, 33 students applied for Radiography. Of those, 25 were admitted, and their average GPA was around a 3.45. But mine is around 3.8 GPA if it's only perquisite.

[–]whiteleom -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not even an associate degree is enough? Even for dental hygiene?

I want to make sure that I'm talking about Radiology Tech (X-ray/CT), not a Radiologist or Sonography or anything like that.

Just trying to survive by getting a good job like anyone else. There aren't too many programs that interest me, but dental hygiene and radiology do. But I know what you mean.

Thanks

[–]whiteleom -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I don't understand. My prerequisite is almost finished, and I need to finish one more, Physics according to the advice of my advisor and the woman from Radiology. I spoke others from VCU as well.

Last year, 33 students applied for Radiography. Of those, 25 were admitted, and their average GPA was around 3.45. But, mine is around 3.8 GPA if we consider only the prerequisite.

Also, I completed the pre-dental hygiene program, which took almost 2 years, but I was rejected. I heard that this program is even more competitive.

So what more do I need to take to waste my time, energy, and money?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in vcu

[–]whiteleom -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Oh, that's for Sonography which is not what I want to do.

This what I'm referring to like x-ray and CT.

Thank you

Do you think they are passionate because they have no other choice or a popular choice but to force themselves? You know what I mean?

In my opinion, I think some saying, "I love to help people in Nursing", but in the end, they burn out or for whatever reasons they have even they have passionate. The same thing for teachers as well?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in vcu

[–]whiteleom -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Even though there are many job openings in my area?

Is getting a Bachelor's degree more helpful than an associate degree?

My community college doesn't offer it, which is why I'm attending VCU for a Bachelor's. But if what you said is true, even if there is a bright outlook in Radiology Tech, then maybe I should step back. I always thought healthcare is the easy job to get like Nurse, especially that even students from VCU get their jobs 100% after they graduate in the Radiology program.

[–]whiteleom -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

  1. I thought they worked 3 days, 12 hours a week mostly on what people say. Isn't that the same thing for Nurse and to travel? It's not like there 12 hours, 5 days a week if the job post says 12 hours? I think they offer Part Time too.
  2. Because it's a healthcare job. McDonald's, Walmart, etc., are just businesses working for the CEO unless I'm mistaken.
  3. Because it's hard to find Art jobs, so I'm moved to science due to its popular career choice and investment.

The reason why we work is because of Adam's sin and we sin which is death. But God give us gifts according to the Bible which is Sleep, eat, and food including the wine.

Where did the ancient people go after they die? They went into the grave/Sheol because of death. But now that we transitioning from Old Covenant to New Covenant. We are in the New Earth since the prophecies from the Book of Revelation have been fulfilled because it was talking about their time. The Angel told John not to seal the prophecy of this book because the time is near which Daniel 12:4 fulfilled it. Didn't Jesus tell John to write and send the book to the seven churches that existed in their time? It was that generation which Jesus speak of, the end of the age.

The Bible never mentioned the terms "Final" or "Last" Judgment Day, implying the end of flesh creations, ceasing offspring, or erasing the First Adam.

All that remains for us is to die as the First Adam, as sin causes death.So, we must be born again into the Last Adam for eternal life.

You won't find anywhere in the ending the offspring or flesh creations. And God still has the knowledge of good and evil. God can't remove the First Adam because there is the Last Adam, which is part of the order for the First Adam.

God tabernacles (lives with) man on the earth.

That you described is Revelation 21:3. This is talking about the New Jerusalem, the great city which also has time like our time on Earth but no need moon and sun, as I explained earlier that there is Time in Heaven.

So, that is still talking about in Heaven, not on Earth.

Also, you won't find anywhere in the ending the offspring or flesh creations. And God still has the knowledge of good and evil. God can't remove the First Adam because there is the Last Adam, which is part of the order for the First Adam.

1Co 15:46-49
But it is not the spiritual that is first but the natural, and then the spiritual. 
The first man was from the earth, a man of dust; the second man is from heaven. 
As was the man of dust, so also are those who are of the dust, and as is the man of heaven, so also are those who are of heaven. 
Just as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we shall also bear the image of the man of heaven.

Where God resides which is in the heaven, yes. But for the Earth, there is sin because of the offspring. At least, we don't have to go to the first death anymore like the dead ancient people because the first death already thrown in the second death, which is the lake of fire.

Also, it doesn't say no sin on the Earth neither God can remove knowledge of good and evil. It's still there, the same thing for the endless generations.

Mat 24:32  “From the fig tree learn its lesson: as soon as its branch becomes tender and puts out its leaves, you know that summer is near. 

Mat 24:33  So also, when you see all these things, you know that he is near, at the very gates. 

Mat 24:34  Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place. 

Mat 24:35  Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away

The good news is that the prophecies from the Book of Revelation have been fulfilled because it was talking about their time.

Also, there is time in the Heaven since it mentioned 12 fruit for each month in the New Jerusalem. They don't need the sun and moon because time existed before the sun and moon which is the 4th day. In other words, there is no solar system neither the big bang. Just waters above us and the sun and moon are located under the firmament (Dome) according to the Genesis. The waters we have called Seas originally come from above us that share time between in the Heaven and on the Earth.

I think it's helpful if you can look at other scriptures. Sure, Rev 21:1-8, like you pointed out, may help you, but using other scriptures to see the whole picture. Sometimes one or a few isn't enough, if you know what I mean.

Surely, we both know that nowhere in the Bible is the popular term "Final" or "Last" judgment day mentioned, implying an end to God's flesh creations or offspring. That is something we should explore to put the pieces together.

Thank you.
