True Christians believe what the scriptures teach about death and what happens afterward. The scriptures point out that when (the large majority of) people die, they simply return "to dust" a.k.a. breakdown to the bare elements they were created from and cease to exist. The same thing happens with animals. (Ecclesiastes 3:19-20) This has been happening since Adam sinned in the Garden of Eden. (Genesis 3:19) During this breakdown process, the person knows/feels nothing; completely unconscious. (Ecclesiastes 9:5, 6 & 10) Only a small group of people are chosen by Jehovah God and Jesus to go to Heaven: 144,000. (Revelation 14:1-4) So what about the other righteous people that have died through the centuries? Or those that died before gaining any knowledge of Jehovah? There will be a resurrection of both righteous and 'unrighteous' (a.k.a. those that died before knowing who Jehovah was or His principles) people (John 5:28-29; Acts 24:15), who will then be able to live forever on Earth, one devoid of evil people. (Psalms 37:10, 11, 28 & 29) Those that died with no knowledge of Jehovah will be given a chance to prove themselves faithful, and if they do so they'll be able to live eternally alongside the rest of the righteous. (New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures)
No, Christians believe in heaven.
The dividing point is what one's view is concerning Jesus.
Evolution was the starting point for Reincarnation.
As far as I know, The true early christians never taught Reincarnation. As you probably well know, Christianity came from Judaism. Judaism never taught reincarnation. Reincarnation is primaraly a Pagan, that is either a religion that is not an abrahamic religion (Judaism, Christianity, Islam) or a religion that worships many gods, concept. Misguided early christians, may have incorporated reincarnation into their aldulturated form of Christianity. However, they were clearly not influential enough to influence mainstream Christianity. either that, or they saw the truth, in my opinion.
Yes, it is a reality depending on how you look at it. To christians, it is simply 'Resurrection'.
Christians view owls as one of God's wonderful creations, so most Christians are okay with them.
Reincarnation is not a belief supported by traditional Christian teachings. Christians believe in the resurrection of the dead and the afterlife, as described in the Bible. Reincarnation is more commonly associated with Eastern religions like Hinduism and Buddhism.
well from a christians point of view it's the worship of false Gods . the true God being Jesus Christ .
Hindus believe in rebirth and reincarnation, which the three religions do not believe in.
Jainism. My world religions class did a project on different religions, and i remember that Jainism included the Karma and Reincarnation.. Aupmanyav adds: Hinduism also connects karma with caste in reincarnation.
