12. Do animals, like cows and horses, have souls? How should we treat them? Ecclesiastes 3:19-21.

15. Does the Lord want us ignorant as to the state of the dead? How should we feel about them? I Thessalonians 4:13-18.
Note: These Scriptures clearly show that when Christ comes again, the dead in Christ will rise from their graves to go to Him then. How could this be true if they were already in Heaven? Ninety-seven percent believe that the dead are alive, more alive than the living. Most Christians, like heathen, believe that the dead are alive. Only three percent have learned the truth of the matter, and they have kept it quiet for fear of offense. What a pity. A very small percentage dare to publish it. It is about time that God moved the stones to witness for Him. So many professed followers have gone to sleep on this theory. Church members all over the world are honoring the dead. At Christmas time they weep and cry, and many are praying for the dead sinners to be saved, and even boast that they have saved so many dead sinners. Much money and time has been wasted helping the dead sinners out of Purgatory, other groups pray them out of Hell. Heathens believe and practice the same but all in vain. May God help to awaken men to the Scriptures, learn the Bible truths and publish them.
