 Actually, if the Xian doctrines of Heaven and Hell are correct, then
 *everybody* who has ever been born still "lives".  So, why is that
 special in the case of Jesus?

 Mark, don't you know that Jesus was physically resurrected?
 I mean, there were actual eyewitnesses!  The bible says so, so it
 must be true.
 Seriously, that "Jesus Lives" bit has always bothered me.  I assume that
 one could say that "He lives in my heart" but that can not be true.
 When a person says that someone lives in their heart they are
 really saying that their memory lives on, not the actual
 person.
 No....back to the ever exciting Ezekiel Prophesy Debate! >>

If God is everywhere, then isn't he already in the heart of the nonbeliever 
prior to conversion?  If not, then he is not everywhere.  Same is true with 
Hell.
