Heaven and Hell

[Trojan_47]

These are spiritual states that one can be in at a given time. Not physical places in another realm that someone goes when they physically die (like they show in cartoons) right? The New Testament said that the Kingdom of Heaven is not of this world, but is located within.

I just need feedback to know if this is something that everyone knows, cuz I'm just figuring this out now.

Is the question too obvious to answer?

[Elephantitis Man]

There's not even any evidence proving the existence of a spirit. Why concern myself with the proposed 'spiritual states' of something that I don't even know exists?

I think you were pretty spot on in your opening paragraph.... I'm guessing most avid Christians know this?

The cartoon thing is of course, for kids to understand the concept

Naturally, at this age we are too grown up for those childish myths.

The mind is inseperable from the brain, meaning consciousness does not survive death.

Thus, the mind and spirit are seperate. I mentioned in another post that spirituality is not a state of mind but a state of being.
