That the Dead are Raised

Text for discussion: Luke 20.  

God did not create us to die and go into black oblivion.  He gave us an eternal soul and plans to raise us one day.  We will be judged by His Son.  Many have scoffed at this very idea, but God's Son participated in the creation AND redeemed it from sin and death.  

Jesus says that even Moses in the Torah confessed that the dead are raised because he calls God the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and God is the God of the living.
