Resurection is Our Hope, That is Why Death is Necessary!

Is. 57:1; states that the righteous are being taken away from the evil to come, and none are laying it to heart. Malachi 2:1,2; states that if we do not hear, lay it to heart, and give glory to His Name, He will curse our blessings. Obviously we are not recognizing the judgments of God in all that is happening in this generation. Many are pointing to the Rapture of the saints, well Pastor Kyle has already raptured and is in the presence of Jesus Christ as He promised. We must see that it is resurrection and not rapture. The rapture theory is poisoning the Body of Christ, by putting off to some distant shore, the blessings of Christ’s death and resurrection for every man. (1Jn. 2:1,2)

Pastor Kyle has received his crown of righteousness, and we should seek the same end for ourselves and our families by the Gospel that Kyle preached.

None of us receiving the promise of; to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord will then have to wait for the rapture to be made alive. Such foolishness, we have already received the gift of eternal life, but we all as the firstfruits of the resurrection, like Christ has passed from death to life because of His glorious resurrection from the dead. That same resurrection power that raised Jesus is now in all of us. Through the first Adam all die, through Christ all shall be made alive. When? Right now, as Kyle already has experienced and be sure that all who have died In Christ, are with him. Want proof? (Mt. 57:50-53)They too, the old testament saints are part of the firstfruits and so are we. Amen

It is a wicked servant that sayeth, the Lord delayeth His coming. (Matt. 24:48) Please visit our web site and study this truth for yourself. http://crossofchristministries.org/id68.htm

To Bro. Kyle’s family,
Death, the Paul-proclaimed enemy of God, may have cast a dark shadow over your life in these days, but you will come to know the Light of the Son of God as never before.  You will also find out how much you are loved by those who genuinely love Kyle.  Our hearts ache for you and our prayers are lifted up on your behalf.

I was in a service in Los Angeles when I heard of Kyle’s death.  All who knew him were sad and taken back!  All who heard his name for the first time wept with those who feel the loss of this man of God.

We as a body (in gentleness and kindness) can take this tragedy and use it for good. After all, He is with Jesus as I write and God’s home is a lot holier than this place.  We mourn the loss of a brother in Christ and we can only imagine what the loved ones feel at this time as we try with few words to console them. But through it all we can rejoice in his final destination.

Kyle’s death like many that come unexpected in the body of Christ should be a blessed message from the Lord for us to Stand up and say to the world - BE READY - Be ready for your departure from this life to LIFE with ....  If you don’t know, it is time to make a choice!!

We know Kyle was ready and we applaud his personal relationship with the Jesus the Christ.  The passing of a great young man can be the explosive impetus for an out break of relationship with Jesus as Savior and Lord for those who have walked the line. 

Tell of his life and tell of his death!  As I do, I will thank the Lord for a great man of God and make mention of the “call HOME” and ask,

ARE YOU READY!

Good Afternoon Todd,

Sorry to hear about Kyle and the loss to his family and fellowship of saints.

Your article, and some comments, got me thinking about our reaction to death.  We try to maintain good theology by asking “why God allowed it” but the very question reveals a hidden lie.  If God “allows” death He is seemingly impotent against or unconcerned about the consequences of sin.  I have been trying to put away language that associates God with anything but life, joy, hope and peace within the constructs of a holy and disciplined life.  Saying that God allowed someone to die, while having biblical proof text, seems to me to be far from His character.

Did God allow Kyle to die?  Yes - in the sense that He seemingly did nothing to prevent his death from the consequences that led Kyle to the moment… including the electrical power through the microphone (that might have been phantom powered having 48V available), which hand Kyle used to hold the microphone, not observing standard safety precautions of handling electronic objects when in water, not using a ground fault isolation circuit… I think more accurately, Kyle did not die because of God’s will or permission but God’s will was overridden by a tragic series of events; events that were directed by free choice (Kyle’s and others).  To go one step further, there is an enemy who sole purpose is to kill and destroy - Kyle’s death fits squarely on this enemies shoulders.

Blessings to you and your family,

John

I Cor 9:24
Do you know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way that you will get the prize.

It is very evedent that Pastor Kyle has won the prize. I sarrow for his family, but rejoice for him.

To the family and church family of this dear Pastor, our prayers are with you. I was reminded of the book of Acts 7:55-56,were Stephen looked up into heaven and saw JESUS ( STANDING ) at God’s right hand ready to welcome His servant home. Sunday, Kyle saw the face of his Savior as JESUS welcomed him home. See you in heaven if not sooner.
