Advice Pool - The Parable Of Lazarus And The Rich Man - Part 1
The Introduction
This article could and perhaps should have been entitled: When Christians Die, Do They Instantly "Go To Be With The Lord"? - Part 3, but that, to some degree, would be missing the point. The question of whether this passage of Holy Scripture proves or does not prove that we "go to be with The Lord" when we die is really only a side issue.

to say this theme is totally missed by the Bible 'experts'. Moreover, this parable is so well known and much discussed it had to be used as the title of this article. Notice, too, that I have deliberately referred to this passage of Holy Scripture as a Parable.
Calling it a parable will upset many mainstream Christians because it is one of their 'golden nugget' sections of the New Testament used to support their mistaken ideas that they 1) instantaneously "Go to be with the Lord" when they die, and 2) go straight to hea

Then there are those who say that there is nothing to suggest that either of these men are Godly men and that both are lost and unsaved - all of it misguided error and nonsense! Now, in order to proceed, we need the Holy Scriptures so I have copied them here:

Exodus 26:1 Moreover thou shalt make the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet: with cherubims of cunning work shalt thou make them.
Numbers 4:13 And they shall take away the ashes from the altar, and spread a purple cloth thereon:

Next we have poor Lazarus who represents all those who are desirous and hungry, nay starving, for lack of Spiritual food, for lack of even just a few crumbs of Spiritual Truth or the Word of God - Jesus Christ and His glorious message; The Good News of Grace, Salvation and The Kingdom of God. On top of that poor Lazarus' malnourished Spiritual condition is compounded by the trials of this life - his sores. As a Spiritual babe he is even tormented and spiritually attacked by

This parable is another of those parables that The Lord Jesus Christ frequently used in order to attack the hypocrisy of the Jewish religious leaders. All dressed up for the part - whited sepulchres, but all hollow and empty within - substanceless or Spiritually dead. Notice, too, this man lived it up everyday; well he was loaded with money and therefore a lover of filthy lucre, so why not, eat, drink and be merry etc.

must understand is that The Lord Jesus Christ, on numerous occasions said The Kingdom of God is at hand. What did He mean by that turn of phrase? Quite simply He was referring to a time in the near future or the time directly after His death and resurrection when Salvation would be made available to all those The Father would be calling and choosing through hearing the Apostles' preaching.

Don't forget too, this message is being delivered by The Lord Jesus Christ under the Old Covenant and Abraham's Bosom is a forerunner or type of the Kingdom of God to be ruled by The Lord Jesus Christ. Please note, Lazarus' physical death, as with all those who are Born Again, has no hold over him as his place in the Kingdom
