Hello family,

I wanted to share and then ask a question of "is this possible?"...I had a dream some years ago when I was questioning "where did the faithful followers of YHWH go"? Of course this is because my family is entirely jewish! So, I had asked the Lord for what happens to a jew who never found Him....that night I had a dream. It was a fine and lovely dream, but I wondered then as I do now, especially since my mom died...is this truth in the bible, which I will explain as I go? blush.gif

It started out with Abrahams bosom...where apparently those who had passed long before Jesus came had been kept...here's scripture's about that fact:

Lu 16:22
And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;

Lu 16:23
And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

Within the dream I sat with the Lord by a huge tree and we talked, then we walked where He showed me "Solomon's temple" and began to explain that the temple was a "small model" of how heaven was set up...There is the Outer Court...where most are "learning the oracles of God" and those "too young...like the aborted" where being taught what they had not learned here. cool.gif Then in the inner court...the shewbread room...there were the "religious" who loved Him but had walked their lives by their "own paths" which they felt where righteous, and they also "loved Him" too, but in the inner court...they were there "judging themselves" since they hadn't done that here. unsure.gif After all was said and done...we headed to the Holy of Holies...where I could see those who had come into heaven in their Robes of Righteousness...which are given by Him to those who trusted in the cross...they had the direct path to the throne! biggrin.gif Didn't get to see the whole deal in there, but got the idea that there are "Three heavenly realms" which are available to all. The outer court for learning, the inner court was for repenting, and the Holy of Holies the center of "ALL" and filled with the Glory of God! wub.gif

I guess my question is this...Can a jew be saved by the road of the outer court which was called Abrahams bosom...where those "lost" get a chance to learn of Jesus, but only had learned and were faithful to YHWH? blink.gif I know we serve a loving God who wants none to be lost...would He not want to get His chance to teach them about their Messiah? Or truly it is all up to us to "bring in the sheep"? Does God really need our help to save the lost? And, if He does...why? Is this not something within His power to do? wink.gif

I know that I am asking questions about this because of my mom's passing and her "only jewish knowledge", and there is also the passage about....if one of you in your family gains salvation, He would be faithful to save your household...does He? Can I stand on that promise that He would "save" my mom...or really is she in hell? ohmy.gif For any of you who have lost a loved one..don't you all wonder too? Or am I alone in this feeling of sadness for my mom's salvation...would He really let one of His children slip into hell or do they get that "last chance" to accept Him as their Savior? Help me to understand, please. wub.gif your sis, hannah wacko.gif
