Yup it started the moment of his last breath, where the body was is kind of meaningless the body didn’t go to hades or anywhere else it was simply placed in a tomb. Jesus was out of his physical body for three days and three nights.
I would be careful with the idea of "out of the body experiences" .Not saying you are trying to sell. But the idea is on the rise .
It makes me wonder when His Spirit comes on the last day will he find the faith of Christ, as
it is written working in men? or will experience be the new source of faith making as
it is written to no effect?
Mathew gives us some understanding of the mutual work of the father and Son working together. Three times the Father rebuked Satan putting His words on His Sons lips. as
it is written with
it representing the source of
faith the unseen eternal
Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him. Mathew 4:10-11
I would offer. For three days the mutual work of the Father and Son worked together in order to bring the peace of God that surpasses all human understanding. The new understanding by which can we believe of the father who informs us. . . . to call no man Teacher on earth one is our Teacher as Master and Lord not seen in heaven .Even the Son of man,Jesus when called Good Master gave glory to the unseen God.
It is the treasure we do have in the corrupted bodies of death.The
power of
God not
of us in any way shape or form.
For three days; three denotes the end of a matter. . The father did not let corruption death conquer the body Son of man . As the Son cried out for spirit life as strength the Father poured out His Spirit on the Son of Man . A work that could of been demonstrated in a hour. Three one of the keys. It is like God saying; "the end of the demonstration".
For four days he performed that kind of work with Lazarus . Lazarus was dead asleep like all born again believers after they breath their last breath. .They are fast asleep waiting for the wake up call on the last day . Arise be clothed with His righteousness a reflection of the glory of the unseen father.
The work of the two or three in His name represent the unseen glory The Father and Son as one kept the body from totally corrupting turning to dust. it was a living suffering .God does not accept dead sacrifices.
Psalm 16:9-11 King James Version (KJV)Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope. For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.
For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; it speaks of the living suffering by reason of .
Neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see the end of corruption, death, the returning to the dust .
