Ghosts like UFO’s are a topic that stirs the imaginationand sparks intrigue into the minds of most people.With so many sightings world wide there must besomething real to all of this. Much of our intrigue is thefact that most of us desire or perhaps are even fearfulto know what happens after death. Ghosts in thissense are representing the possibility or hope of anafter life and serves to increase this mystique. By experience, many have stated seeing theappearance of departed loved ones or those of wellknown people of the past. It is assumed that ghostsare the spiritual remains in an energy form of thedeceased existing on another plane of existence. Veryconvincing cases have been produced to suggest thatsome ghosts seem to linger on with unresolved andunfinished business to accomplish. Other cases wouldindicate that in a traumatic death the person seems“stuck” in a place or area where the event took place. The Bible has much to say about this topic. Mostpeople today are either not aware of what is saidbecause they have never been taught from the Bibleat their place of worship or they simply do not believethe relevancy of the Bible at all. I would like to share with you what the Bible doeshave to say about ghosts and the afterlife. Job 7:9-10“As the cloud disappears and vanishes away, so hewho goes down to the grave does not come up.He shall never return to his house, nor shall hisplace(body) know him anymore.”This makes it very clear that the departed do not“roam” the earth or return. They stay dead andseparated from this level of existence.There are more scriptures that concur with thisthought. Heb 9:27 “And as it is appointed unto menonce to die, but after this the judgment”: There is ajudgement or determination placed upon the dead thatdetermines what happens to them next. Thisdetermination has nothing to do with good works, orspiritual knowledge it has to do with your reliance uponGod to direct your life. Before Christ came to the earth,

departed souls went into a hollow earth. There existstwo chambers within, separated by a gulf. Thisdescription was given by Jesus as he spoke aboutdeath to the people of his time as recorded in Luke16:22-31 "So it was that the beggar died, and wascarried by the angels to Abraham's bosom. The richman also died and was buried. And being in tormentsin Hades, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham afaroff, and Lazarus in his bosom. "Then he cried andsaid, 'Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and sendLazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger in waterand cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.'"But Abraham said, 'Son, remember that in yourlifetime you received your good things, and likewiseLazarus evil things; but now he is comforted and youare tormented. 'And besides all this, between us andyou there is a great gulf fixed, so that those who wantto pass from here to you cannot, nor can those fromthere pass to us.' "Then he said, 'I beg you therefore,father, that you would send him to my father's house,for I have five brothers, that he may testify to them,lest they also come to this place of torment.' "Abrahamsaid to him, 'They have Moses and the prophets; letthem hear them.' "And he said, 'No, father Abraham;but if one goes to them from the dead, they willrepent.' "But he said to him, 'If they do not hear Mosesand the prophets, neither will they be persuadedthough one rise from the dead.” A bosom in ancienttimes was a pocket located above the waist formed bya robe belted at the waist. This is called a tunic. We nolonger wear such apparel and some meaning hasbeen lost. “Abrahams bosom” then, was this “pocket”in the earth. (See the tract Hell and the Hollow Earthfor more detail) The dialog here says it all. Even if one were to returnthey would not be believed. It is also recorded thatafter the death of Christ he went into this area ofAbrahams Bosom to set the captives free. There wasa removal of those in Paradise. Now those who die infaith go directly to be with the Lord.2 Cor 5:8 “We are

confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent fromthe body and to be present with the Lord.” This idea isconfirmed by the banning of associating with mediumsand seeking the dead. (See, Do the dead speak to theliving, tract) So what are ghosts?In view of such conflicting statements from the Biblewith the experiences many are having today, Thequestion remains, What are ghosts? Ghosts are disembodied spirits. They are an unusualresult of a special judgement by God imposed upon avery unusual group of creatures. I say creaturesbecause they are not human or angelic they were acombination of both! In Genesis 6 chapter we are given the background ofth

the world just before the Great Flood which was ajudgement from God. Gen 6:1-4 “Now it came to pass,when men began to multiply on the face of the earth,and daughters were born to them,that the sons of Godsaw the daughters of men, that they were beautiful;and they took wives for themselves of all whom theychose... There were giants on the earth in those days,and also afterward, when the sons of God came in tothe daughters of men and they bore children to them.Those were the mighty men who were of old, men ofrenown”.Much controversy hinges on the interpretation of the“Sons of God” and the “Giants”. (See the Real Flood ofNoah tract for more detail) For the sake of space, theSons of God are fallen angels that took human formand married and interbreed with the female populationof Earth. Their offspring were called the mighty men ofrenown. These were half human and angelic beingsmortal yet eternal beings. As Judgement was passedupon the earth, these hybrids and their fallen angelparents were sentenced to everlasting chains ofdarkness as described in 2 Peter 2:4 and Jude1:6. “And angels who did not keep their owndomain,(angelic order) but abandoned their properabode,(a body) He has kept in eternal bonds under

darkness for the judgment of the great day,” Jude1:6.“For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but castthem down to hell, and delivered them into chains ofdarkness, to be reserved unto judgment;” 2 Pet 2:4In this text most of us get the visualization of Angelsshackled to a dungeon like pit. In the Greek we getquite a different picture. This special sentence isactually described as a wrap around shroud ofdarkness or obscurity, or as Strong’s put it - a ghost.The chains have more of a meaning of a cycle ofgoing up and trailed down. This cycle is understood bythe event at Gadareneas. As Jesus commandedLegion a group of unclean spirits out of a man, theybegged him not to send them back to the pit. Theywere cast into a heard of pigs and drowned. Thesewere disembodied spirits that possessed a man andthen placed into animals. They roamed upon the earthbut belonged in hell. These are the angels that sinnedbefore the flood and their offspring. They do makeappearances to man. They do speak to the living.They appear in various deceptive forms to deludemankind into a false belief of life after death and afalse sense of hope. We have been warned that in thelast days it would be like the days before the flood!These same spirits today are preparing the people ofthe World to receive a “New Age” with a powerful newLeader. 1 Tim 4:1 “Now the Spirit speaks expressly, that in thelatter times some shall depart from the faith, givingheed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; II Th2:9-11 Even him, whose coming is after the working ofSatan with all power and signs and lying wonders, Andwith all deceivableness ofunrighteousness (a wrong way) in them that perish;because they received not the love of the truth, thatthey might be saved. And for this cause God shallsend them strong delusion, that they should believe alie:”These ghosts of the Giants have been around forthousands of years. They have roamed the earth as

invisible agents for their leader Satan. They can haveknowledge of crimes because they inspired many ofthem. They can know your most personal experiencesas they might of been there or someone else’s fromhundreds of years ago. They are conspiring againstmankind to give a false hope and idea of life afterdeath. They are getting mankind ready to receive themonce again in the living flesh as prophesied in thescriptures along with their leader. These “New Age”forms of contact with spirits are the most dangerousevents to happen to mankind on such a scale it trulycan be compared only to the time before the flood. Ifyou will not believe the truths in the Bible about apersonal God who loves you, I guarantee you willbelieve THE BIG LIE! In your quest for spiritual truth I only hope you willreconsider the real claims of the Bible. There is somuch more here than what you might of beentraditionally taught. We are already experiencing thelarge Falling away mentioned in II Th 2:3 "Let no man deceive you by any means: forthat day shall not come, except there come a fallingaway first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son ofperdition;”In prayer ask God, seek him with your wholeheart...you will find him.
