Howard Hughes took none of his material wealth with him,
but he did take something. So will you.

will
live again. So shall all
who have died frorn
Adarn until now. And, like
Howard H ughes, a ll took
sornething with thern when
they died. By the sarne token ,
you are building sornething
in your life that will survive
this present life.
lt 's important that every
human being know what this
something is.
What about this riddle of life
after death? Different religions
have different ideas. Sorne believe
in the transmigration of souls.
Another religion says you go to a
place called purgatory for a t ransi–
tory life, later to be sent to a bliss–
ful heaven to abide forever in "glo–
rious" idleness and ease.
Many Protestants believe all
"unsaved dead" have gone to the
ever-burning hell, being continual–
ly tortured by the most excruciat–
ing unendurable pain, while those
who "accepted Christ" went at
the instant of death to the blissful
heaven with nothing to do but
look continually in enraptured
bliss on the glorious face of Jesus
Christ. Other millions have no
idea whatsoever. Many of them

just don't want to think about
it.
Notwithstanding, this question
has everything to do with YOUR
LIFE
NOW-with
its very PUR–
POSE- with the reason why you
were boro. And you'll rue the day
you ignored or rejected the true
answer.
A certain man wondered about
these things. He said to himself:
"Cometo think about it,
1
have nev–
er seen proof of the existence of God.
What if the evolutionists are right
and there is no Creator- no intelli–
gent a nd supreme mind who
designed, planned and created all
that exists- and it all just
hap–
pened?"
He delved vigorously into an in–
depth study of evolution, and of the
Bible as a textbook on creation. He
determined to know- to be sure–
to find PROOF!
I
was that man. Suffice it to say
I
found that proof and share it with
tbose who are concerned. And

died. Adam and Eve and al l their
children, except those still living, all
died. And they all took something
with them when they died.
They shall all live again. God our
Maker reveals to us that in Adam,
the first man, all die. He says,
" ... it is appointed unto men once
to die, but after this the judgment"
(Heb.
9:27).
Then again, "as in
Adam all die, even so in Christ shall
all be made alive" by a resurrection
from the dead ( I Cor.
15:22).
God reveals plainly that all who
die shall be resurrected. Our Mak–
er holds out the sure HOPE for life
after death by a resurrection from
the dead- those who are Christ 's at
his now soon coming back to earth,
others in a later resurrection to
judgment (I Cor.
15:23-24;
Rev.
20:11 - 12).
One whole chapter in the Bible is
devoted to the resurrection- 1 Co–
rinthians
15.
And it answers in
verse
35
the question, "With what
body do they come?" God answers
that they shall be resurrected
NOT
in the same body in which they
died, but that God shall gjve them a
new body. Those in whom dwelt
the Holy Spirit of God-who were
LEO by his Spirit- shall come in a
SPlRIT BOOY (Phi!.
3:21 ;
John
3:6),
and others a thousand years later in
bodies of flesh and blood-materi–
al, as they were in this life (Ezek.
37). However all shall look as they
did in this life-as shown by the
transfiguration befare J esus' disci–
ples. But, if the dead shall not be
