@au_badela The passage indicates that the dead remain conscious and retain personal identity, but it does not endorse communication with the dead or establish that departed believers routinely observe earthly affairs. Its primary message is not about the mechanics of the afterlife,
Moreover, brethren, I do not want you to be unaware that all our fathers were under the cloud, all passed through the sea, all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea, all ate the same spiritual food, and all drank the same spiritual drink.
And let us not forget that we are the people "on whom the end of the ages has come." Christ is the end of earthly time and existence and beginning of a new time and existence. We live as people who are already heirs of God and joint-heirs with Christ, whose citizenship is above.
