	Bible and reincarnation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Reincarnation is a central concept of Kabbalah, which, while not universally accepted, has generally been a core component Orthodox Jewish theology for centuries.
		Moreover, the findings of textual criticism and the many early fragments of the Bible that have surfaced during the last two centuries lead many to believe it extremely unlikely that anything of importance was ever removed from the Bible.

	Reincarnation today, reincarnation and the Bible
		Reincarnation is lie of the Devil, a false theory to enslave about 1,500 million people today on earth, and one the main reasons to perpetuate the infamous Caste System in India.
		They claim that Jesus was the reincarnation of Abraham based on Jn.8:58, which is ridiculous; and they quote Matt.11:4 to say that John the Baptist was a reincarnation of Elijah, ignoring the answer given by the Baptist himself to those who raised this possibility: "I am not", he emphatically declared in Jn.1:21.

	Reincarnation: Does the Bible allow for this possibility? - ChristianAnswers.Net
		Reincarnation is the belief that the human soul never perishes or dies, it simply passes through a succession of lives.
		According to the Bible, atonement and forgiveness may be gained only through the death and bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ.
		The concepts of reincarnation and karma are in clear contrast to Hebrews 9:27, "For it is appointed for men to die once and after this comes judgment." Paul clearly states that the soul does not transmigrate into another living body, but goes to await judgment.

	Q & A: What does the Bible say about reincarnation?
		Consider that the idea of reincarnation may be flawed at its core.
		Reincarnation is the theory that with enough lives, a person can somehow finally get it right and then be allowed into paradise/nirvana.
		The Bible also says that all people have sinned and fall short of God's glory (Romans 3:23), that all have turned from God and gone their own way (Isaiah 53:6), that there is not even one person who does good (Psalm 53:3), and that there is no one who doesn't sin (Ecclesiastes 7:20).

	The Watchman Expositor: Does the Bible Teach Reincarnation?
		First, "John" claims that the Bible cannot be trusted because of "reinterpretations." He seems to confuse interpretation with translation.
		As Elisha received the mantle of the "spirit of Elijah" and was obviously not a reincarnation of Elijah, John too held the same office and function of Eljiah the prophet.
		The disciples were not referring to reincarnation, although, at the time similar doctrines were propagated through the pagan religions which had emanated from Babylonia and Persia.

	Focus On The Faulty: Articles (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Often the charge is made that the Bible originally supported the idea of reincarnation, but in the name of control and self-interest, the Church eventually eliminated these teachings from it.
		Each of these can only be construed as supportive of reincarnation when taken out of their Scriptural context and the historical/cultural situation in which they were written.
		Interestingly, the same people who claim that reincarnation is taught in the Bible often claim that the doctrine was removed from the Bible, by Church authorities, several centuries after it was written.

	Reincarnation and the Bible -- by J.J. Dewey (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Reincarnation is merely the result of the law of cause and effect as pointed out by Paul: 'if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.
		Those who believe in reincarnation recognize the fact that the body of form we live in has both a beginning and an end, but there is within us an intelligent part of God that is one with God and never had a beginning or end.
		Reincarnation is one of those things for many of the teachings about the doctrine of rebirth were taken out of the church in the days of Constantine.

	Reincarnation and the Bible
		It is the liberation of the spirit from the cycle of reincarnation and permanent citizenship in heaven.
		Because many people in the Bible were declared righteous during their life and did not have to wait until the end of days, the conclusion is that people don't have to wait until the end of days for judgment.
		Due to the condemnation of pre-existence (and reincarnation) by church authorities in 553 A.D., reincarnation became an enemy concept to the Judeo-Christian West.

	THE ARAMAIC BIBLE AND REINCARNATION (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Those who believe reincarnation is taught in the Bible will utilize the words "you reap what you sow" for confirmation of the law of karma.
		We would not take the position by American evangelical Christianity that reincarnation is of itself a demonic and hellish thought, though there is evidence that the propensity of the dual teaching of karmic material and reincarnation reduces the redemptive act of God in Christ Jesus to an unnecessary religious belief.
		Noncanonical historical documentation may be found to support the teaching of reincarnation and the law of karma, expecially in Pali and Sanskrit of the Indus Valley, yet there does not exist sufficient evidence of 'cross-fertilization' from these documents in the Aramaic Scriptures to depend.

		The wisdom and prophetic books of the Bible are written in an allegorical language, with the abundant use of metaphors (metaphor=use of a word with a sense different to its own and that identifies two different objects that keep a relationship of likeness).
		I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; the earth with her bars was about me for ever; yet, hast thou brought up my life from corruption, O Lord.
		The resurrection of the flesh is the reincarnation of the spirit.

	The Soul's Long Journey - How the Bible Reveals Reincarnation by Edward Reaugh Smith, Review by Bobby Matherne
		The knowledge of how the Bible reveals reincarnation coming to us is an indication we have reached the point in our long journey through our earthly park where we are ready to understand the purpose of our visit so that we may make the best of the rest of our time in the park.
		The point was made that even though reincarnation was accepted by many if not most of the people, who reflected upon such matters, as a matter of past reality, their expectation of an imminent end to all creation as it had been known made that knowledge irrelevant for the future.
		Each person's soul will reincarnate into successive bodies until the end of time on the Earth when the planet will be vaporized and those humans who have reached spiritual maturity will survive as spiritual beings from then on.

	Does the Bible Teach Reincarnation and Karma by Robert G.Katsunoff
		Reincarnation and Karma appeal to the best of minds in the world even today,(Ref.-6-) because these doctrines alone provide logical explanation of the perplexing facts of life and serve as proofs of the justice and love of God.
		The Bible is interested in the evolution of the spirit, of the eternal individuum.
		In Rev.5:5 and 22:16 Jesus is described as the son of David (not of Joseph), as David’s offspring (reincarnation) and the root and the throne (the inner self) of David.

		As for a degree, McDermitt's is from the "International Bible Institute and Seminary" -- an operation that happens to be not far from me. It's not exactly mail-order degree country, but it isn't exactly Dallas Theological Seminary either.
		All the essential elements of karma which make it distinctive are distinctly missing from the Bible, notably the idea that the reaping is administrated by some cosmic wheel of justice; the key verse, Gal.
		In conclusion: One can only read reincarnation into the Bible by mangling it out of its social context.
