i feel so badly for the people who say that they have an immortal soul, or that you go to heaven or hell after you die, do you not read what the bible teaches you? At jesus 2nd comming will the dead be raised. And thats just the richous. 1000years later the other will be raised to face judgement. Why do people want to belive that you go to heaven?? the truth is people, YOU NEVER GO TO HEAVEN. Jesus sets up his kingdom here on EARTH! OPEN YOUR EYES!! satan has blinded you from the truth.
this site will help you open your eyes, please go to it, even if just for a second.

what jesus said was "Assuredly, I say to you today, you will be with Me in Paradise" (Luke 23:43) The comma makes the difference

jesus is the only one in heaven "No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man ..." (John 3:13)

I believe the same way you do, but Satan has blinded the minds of many for he is a manslayer and the father of the lie.

I went to that site. Nothing new there.
Here are some problems with your theory:
The Kingdom of Jesus will be eternal, correct? If so, then how can it be set up here on earth when the earth will pass away (Revelation 21:1)?
Lets look at the book of Luke. We'll start with the story of the rich man and Lazarus, Luke 16:19-31. In this story we see the rich man sent to a place of torment referred to as Hell or Hades. We see Lazarus taken to a place of happiness referred to as Abraham's Bosom or side. Let us then move on to the day of Jesus' death. Luke 23:42 and 43. The conversation between one of the thieves on the cross next to Jesus and Jesus Himself. Jesus told the believing criminal that on that very day he (the criminal) would be with Jesus in Paradise, or heaven. So explain to me again how we, upon death, do not go anywhere until the second coming.
I believe you are confusing the disposition of our souls upon death with the disposition of our bodies. Upon death, our souls leave our bodies and go either to heaven, like Lazarus, or Hell, like the rich man. However, at the event we call the rapture, or the gathering of the Church to Christ, there is a reunification of the souls and glorified bodies of those who have faith in Christ (I Thessalonians 4:16, 17 and note we shall always be with the Lord, as in, eternity). Also see Pauls discussion in I Corinthians 15, especially verses 50-54.
There are many more verses relating to this topic. Search the Bible, and decide for yourself. If you truly seek, you will find the truth.

the ones who are DEAD IN CHRIST WILL RISE first not just anyone.
( you must be jehovah witness?) John 3:13 No one has ASCENDED to heaven but He who CAME DOWN from heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven.
How can we ascend if its not UP?
as‧cend-
–verb (used without object) 1. to move, climb, or go upward; mount; rise:
ALSO, Mark 16:19 So then, after the Lord had spoken to them, He was received UP INTO heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.

OK I went to that site for more than a second. Your beliefs are what they are. I think the interpretation you're subscribing to is probably not as accurate as you think. But you have that right and I have mine...To disagree You're interpretation is also conveniently leaving out some significant passages that have an affect on the outcome of the theory. Seek the Truth my friend. Seek the Truth.

For if you are literalist then you have some deep thinking to ponder, for with what you paraphrase up there, then you must also reconcile why Jesus said: I go before you, to prepare the way.
Perhaps Jesus already came, and we are those that have been left behind. this is hell and those living with Jesus are in another state of existence that we have no comprehension.

Wherever Jesus sets up his kingdom, it will be Heavenly! So what does it matter if we call it going to Heaven or not, so long as we end up happy with Jesus?

The kingdom of heaven will be on earth. The earth will be like the original garden of Eden. The curse will be lifted after a thousand year cleansing of fire. We will be in paradise while the earth is being cleansed.

THE BIBLE SAYS TO BE ABSENT FROM THE BODY IS TO BE PRESENT WITH THE LORD. THE BIBLE ALSO SAYS JESUS IS AT THE RIGHT HAND OF THE FATHER WHO IS IN HEAVEN SO TRY READING ALL THE BIBLE BEFORE YOU COME TO A CONCLUSION

Only 144,000 were invited to go to heaven to serve as priests and kings to rule over the earth. Jesus said; have no fear LITTLE FLOCK for my Father has approved of giving you the kingdom and I have OTHER SHEEP NOT OF THIS FOLD that must be brought in union. In Revelation 144,000 go to heaven,LITTLE FLOCK, a great crowd survives the great tribulation and Armageddon,OTHER SHEEP NOT OF THIS FOLD and they will reside on earth forever,Psalms 37:11,29 And the tent of God will be WITH MANKIND and HE WILL RESIDE WITH THEM Revelation 21:3
