@soul man said in the OP:-
The Holy Spirit is the only one that can lead you into seeing your death on the cross; to every one that has believed upon the Lord Jesus Christ as their personal savior and into seeing that death of Jesus Christ as their death. All in Adam crucified by the death of Jesus Christ on the cursed tree. According to scripture everyone that hangeth on a tree would have the curse of death. That cursed tree bringing the; curse to the death (old man was - the death and was that death), into life as a believer (understanding the only life is Christ in the believer). It is Jesus Christ that hung on that cursed tree and upon His death, all in Adam died.
2 Corinthians 5:14-15.
I imagine I am. Read the scripture I gave. When Jesus dies all died in Christ on the cross. A sinner must believe, when they do, the death of all in Adam happens the moment they believe. It is written. How was Paul crucified with Christ - he was not on a cross?
'For the love of Christ constraineth us;
because we thus judge,
that if one died for all,
then were all dead:
And that He died for all,
that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves,
but unto Him which died for them, and rose again.'

(2Cor. 5:14-15)

Hi @soul man,

I believe that the believer in Christ Jesus is reckoned by God to have died with Christ, been buried with Him, quickened and raised with Him: That he also is reckoned to have ascended with His Saviour to God's right hand, where he now awaits Christ's manifestation in glory, when he will be manifested with Him there.

This death happens the moment we believe, for God places us 'in Christ' (1 Corinthians 1:30-31).

We who were 'in Adam', as the head of the human race, are transferred into the headship of Christ, and are reckoned to be 'in Christ' Having died in Christ when He died, and been raised to walk in newness of life before the Father as He is.

'For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.'

(1Cor 15:21-22)

* I hope that it is a difference of expression rather then a difference of understanding that we have, soul man. Yes?

Thank you
In Christ Jesus
Chris

The Facts of the Resurrection of Christ are founded in 1 Corinthians 15

Do not really enjoy typing on here as much as use to but will only so often.

Each of you thank you for your contributions to the thread and may the peace and grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, love of God, and fellowship of the holy spirit be with you.

1 Corinthians 15
Young's Literal Translation

15 And I make known to you, brethren, the good news that I proclaimed to you, which also ye did receive, in which also ye have stood,

2 through which also ye are being saved, in what words I proclaimed good news to you, if ye hold fast, except ye did believe in vain,

3 for I delivered to you first, what also I did receive, that Christ died for our sins, according to the Writings,

4 and that he was buried, and that he hath risen on the third day, according to the Writings,

5 and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve,

6 afterwards he appeared to above five hundred brethren at once, of whom the greater part remain till now, and certain also did fall asleep;

7 afterwards he appeared to James, then to all the apostles.

8 And last of all -- as to the untimely birth -- he appeared also to me,

9 for I am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I did persecute the assembly of God,

10 and by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace that [is] towards me came not in vain, but more abundantly than they all did I labour, yet not I, but the grace of God that [is] with me;

11 whether, then, I or they, so we preach, and so ye did believe.

12 And if Christ is preached, that out of the dead he hath risen, how say certain among you, that there is no rising again of dead persons?

13 and if there be no rising again of dead persons, neither hath Christ risen;

14 and if Christ hath not risen, then void [is] our preaching, and void also your faith,

15 and we also are found false witnesses of God, because we did testify of God that He raised up the Christ, whom He did not raise if then dead persons do not rise;

16 for if dead persons do not rise, neither hath Christ risen,

17 and if Christ hath not risen, vain is your faith, ye are yet in your sins;

18 then, also, those having fallen asleep in Christ did perish;

19 if in this life we have hope in Christ only, of all men we are most to be pitied.

20 And now, Christ hath risen out of the dead -- the first-fruits of those sleeping he became,

21 for since through man [is] the death, also through man [is] a rising again of the dead,

22 for even as in Adam all die, so also in the Christ all shall be made alive,

23 and each in his proper order, a first-fruit Christ, afterwards those who are the Christ's, in his presence,

24 then -- the end, when he may deliver up the reign to God, even the Father, when he may have made useless all rule, and all authority and power --

25 for it behoveth him to reign till he may have put all the enemies under his feet --

26 the last enemy is done away -- death;

27 for all things He did put under his feet, and, when one may say that all things have been subjected, [it is] evident that He is excepted who did subject the all things to him,

28 and when the all things may be subjected to him, then the Son also himself shall be subject to Him, who did subject to him the all things, that God may be the all in all.

29 Seeing what shall they do who are baptized for the dead, if the dead do not rise at all? why also are they baptized for the dead?

30 why also do we stand in peril every hour?

31 Every day do I die, by the glorying of you that I have in Christ Jesus our Lord:

32 if after the manner of a man with wild beasts I fought in Ephesus, what the advantage to me if the dead do not rise? let us eat and drink, for to-morrow we die!

33 Be not led astray; evil communications corrupt good manners;

34 awake up, as is right, and sin not; for certain have an ignorance of God; for shame to you I say [it].

35 But some one will say, `How do the dead rise?

36 unwise! thou -- what thou dost sow is not quickened except it may die;

37 and that which thou dost sow, not the body that shall be dost thou sow, but bare grain, it may be of wheat, or of some one of the others,

38 and God doth give to it a body according as He willed, and to each of the seeds its proper body.

39 All flesh [is] not the same flesh, but there is one flesh of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another of fishes, and another of birds;

40 and [there are] heavenly bodies, and earthly bodies; but one [is] the glory of the heavenly, and another that of the earthly;

41 one glory of sun, and another glory of moon, and another glory of stars, for star from star doth differ in glory.

42 So also [is] the rising again of the dead: it is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption;

43 it is sown in dishonour, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power;

44 it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body; there is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body;

45 so also it hath been written, `The first man Adam became a living creature,' the last Adam [is] for a life-giving spirit,

46 but that which is spiritual [is] not first, but that which [was] natural, afterwards that which [is] spiritual.

47 The first man [is] out of the earth, earthy; the second man [is] the Lord out of heaven;

48 as [is] the earthy, such [are] also the earthy; and as [is] the heavenly, such [are] also the heavenly;

49 and, according as we did bear the image of the earthy, we shall bear also the image of the heavenly.

50 And this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood the reign of God is not able to inherit, nor doth the corruption inherit the incorruption;

51 lo, I tell you a secret; we indeed shall not all sleep, and we all shall be changed;

52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, in the last trumpet, for it shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we -- we shall be changed:

53 for it behoveth this corruptible to put on incorruption, and this mortal to put on immortality;

54 and when this corruptible may have put on incorruption, and this mortal may have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the word that hath been written, `The Death was swallowed up -- to victory;

55 where, O Death, thy sting? where, O Hades, thy victory?'

56 and the sting of the death [is] the sin, and the power of the sin the law;

57 and to God -- thanks, to Him who is giving us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ;

58 so that, my brethren beloved, become ye stedfast, unmovable, abounding in the work of the Lord at all times, knowing that your labour is not vain in the Lord.

Galatians 2:20 is one of the most powerful verse's in all of written scripture. To those that are moving on in the Lord, to those that have so graciously by the grace of God moved into the deep things of God; (which is Christ in you; understanding who they are). A ongoing believer is; one that is not boxed in, not stopped, and not trapped but has kept moving on in the Lord. So what is it the believer goes on into? The Bible, the Holy Written Scriptures that are able to take the believer into the deep things of God and be taught - by the Spirit. Have you ever heard those that would say; I know what's in the Bible. One of the most ridiculous terms a believer can use. If the scriptures are the mind of God who can know what is written. Who among us can say I know what is in the Bible. That is one term that should never be used in the vocabulary of a human being. We are already a peculiar peopl. Ss the born-again; why add fuel to that fire.



The Holy Spirit is always opening up things in an area that you may have thought you already knew. It's okay when arguments are given and pleading your side of the story based on the understanding you have as a believer. Because every believer will be led by their understanding. It is the way a believer will be lead. All believers have a different understanding even if they understand the same thing. In Doctrine or in a Denomination that has their Doctrine and understanding - believers will see things in their own way. That is the uniqueness of each believer that is created in the image and likeness of God to have their own mind. The creation of the image and likeness of each believer is the unique expression that is given, that special touch believer will have and be led - by the Spirit.



So giving your side of the story is not wrong. It is the understanding you have of scripture and what is written. You can absolutely trust the Holy Spirit to lead you and guide you into all truth, as Jesus said; bringing all things to your remembrance.



20 At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you. - John 14:20.



The yielding - to the Spirit will also be absolutely necessary to go on in the Lord. A made-up mind that thinks it knows something cannot be led by their understanding. Why is that? Because the mind has already been made up and closed to the leading and following on; as the Apostle Paul said by the Holy Spirit. The scripture is written in the book of Acts! That Lydia had an open heart. Opening yourself to the Holy Spirit will take a open heart. You cannot be led by what you know, the only way you can be led is; by the understanding you have and staying open and yielded to the Holy Spirit is; if you have a open heart. The understanding you has been given by the Holy Spirit as a way of revealing spiritual things to you.



The Holy Spirit is the only one that can lead you into seeing your death on the cross; to every one that has believed upon the Lord Jesus Christ as their personal savior and into seeing that death of Jesus Christ as their death. All in Adam crucified by the death of Jesus Christ on the cursed tree. According to scripture everyone that hangeth on a tree would have the curse of death. That cursed tree bringing the; curse to the death (old man was - the death and was that death), into life as a believer (understanding the only life is christ in the believer). It is Jesus Christ that hung on that cursed tree and upon his death, all in Adam died.



14 For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead:



15 and that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again. - 2 Corinthians 5:14-15.



That death is the death of the old man. How does that work for a unbeliever? Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and 'thou shalt be saved and thy house'.



4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.

5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them.

6 But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above: )

7 or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.)

8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;

9that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.

13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. - Romans 10:4-13.



Every person alive 'Must Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ' if that salvation of God is to take place. It must not be mistaken; the only salvation of God is 'Christ in you the hope of glory.' What makes a Christian? Christ in you. Bless you!

Each person who believes receives the holy spirit / Spirit of God / Spirit of Christ - into their lives in which produces fruit in the believer as them being the - branch - that doesn't do anything but allow the flow to come through; or impede it, by their choice (the believers choosing.)

Unbelievers can have the holy spirit around them but not in them because they have not accepted faith yet.

That teaching is mentioned in the Bible:

2Ti 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
2Ti 2:16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.
2Ti 2:17 And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;
2Ti 2:18 Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.
2Ti 2:19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.​

The First Resurrection has not taken place yet. See that here (you probably won't, since you don't follow links, but that is your own 'rule' not found in scripture):

Resurrections in Scripture:

The First Great Resurrection (yet to come, at the beginning of the 1,000 years at Jesus' 2nd Advent) takes place after the Special Resurrection (yet to come) and before the The Great Second Resurrection (Damnation, at the end of the 1,000 years at Jesus' 3rd Advent; Revelation 20:5a, etc), see point 14 in the first link

[14.] The Righteous (Resurrection unto Eternal Life at the start of the 1,000 Years of Revelation 20:1-7; Isaiah 24:22) - 1 Samuel 2:6; Job 14:12-14, 19:26; Hosea 13:14; Matthew 22:31; Mark 12:18,23,25; Luke 14:14, 20:35,36; John 5:29a, 6:25,28,29,39,40,44,54, 11:24,25; Acts 4:2, 17:31,32, 23:6, 24:15a,21; Romans 6:5,8, 8:11; 1 Corinthians 15:12,13,16,20,21,23,29,32,35,42,43,52-55; Philippians 3:10,11; Colossians 3:3; 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17; 2 Timothy 2:18, 4:1; Hebrews 6:2, 11:35; Revelation 20:5b,6; -- All the Holy "Clouds" of Angels, the "reapers", with Him -- Psalms 68:17, 104:3; Isaiah 66:15; Matthew 13:39,49, 16:27, 24:30, 25:31,51, 26:64; Mark 8:38, 13:27; Luke 9:26, 21:27; Acts 1:9-11; 1 Thessalonians 3:13, 4:16-17; Hebrews 1:7; Revelation 1:7, 12:7​

Joh 5:28 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,
Joh 5:29 And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.

1Th 4:13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
1Th 4:14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
1Th 4:15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
1Th 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
1Th 4:17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
1Th 4:18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.​

Joh 11:24 Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.

Act 24:15 And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.

Rom_6:5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:

Php_3:11 If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead.

Rev 20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
Rev 20:5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
Rev 20:6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

Read Isaiah 24 with Revelation 20. Isaiah 25 with Revelation 20-21.

Isa 25:8 He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the LORD hath spoken it.
Isa 25:9 And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is the LORD; we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation.

Rev 21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.​

I think you will find that the great tribulation will be upon you sooner than you think Re. One thing is for certain, it either has, or hasn't. In this case, one of us is correct. Sometimes when discussing a subject both can be in error, but not this time, one of us will prove to be correct in our understanding. For now however, it is simply opinion.

I think you will find that the great tribulation will be upon you sooner than you think Re. ...
If you are referring to this:

Mat 24:29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven,...​

That already took place. We are way past that. I already provided this before, but:

I think you will find that the great tribulation ...
If you are referring to Daniel 12:1; Luke 13:25, that has yet to come, and come shortly it does:

Dan 12:1 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.

Luk 13:25 When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are:

Rev 8:5 And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake.

Rev 10:7 But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.

Rev 15:8 And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled.

Rev_22:11 He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.​

Well brothers, you have effectually derailed the subject of @soul man's thread: by insisting on following your own agenda's at the expense of the subject in hand. Ignoring the attempts by @soul man in replies #8 & #10 to prevent you doing so. The subject is:- 'The Death Burial Resurrection And Ascension By Christ In A Saint'.

If you do not know what Christ Jesus is doing in Heaven right now, you have no idea what He is doing in the person, or what that person is supposed to be doing for Him (case in point, the WTS (Robert) and their misunderstanding, thus errors in theology and life, as also your own apart from them). Go back and read my posts with that in mind giving me the charity required to address that. Thank you.

I give the thump up to debates. Debates ate healthy in my opinion. Peolpe can give their side of what they know and understand, and that is healthy. Believers need to speak. They need to speak what they know. It keeps them sharp when debating in the world. Like Paul said 'he was always ready.' He did nit have to work up something, it was already there. And the thread thing, some get upset some when their thread goes a different direction. It doesnt bother me be cause one thing always leads to something else and you just roll with it. But I understand both sides and the moderators have a decision in the matter as well. That is online forums but they are a great fellowship and out reach.

If you are referring to this:

Mat 24:29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven,...​

That already took place. We are way past that. I already provided this before, but:

Each and every one of the signs Jesus gave may have occurred at one time or other. That is the reason that 2 Pet 3:3,4 was put into the Bible. Those signs would be prevalent during one generation RE. The real truth is, that the great tribulation Jesus referred to has not yet happened, as it will take the earth to the point of extinction, perhaps you overlooked that Mat 24:22. That has only happened once prior to Jesus saying it, therefore he was not referring to that one, but he did compare it to it. Jesus has not returned either, he will return at the fulfillment of that verse, to save the chosen ones. If you honestly think about it, I think you will realize that what I say about it is accurate.

Good attitude. Just as Jesus would address an error or question (not ignore it) and then move back to topic (Luke 10; Lawyer), or address the error by the topic, see Woman at the well (John 4), as a for instance of that.

Yes those that Jesus brought out of Abrahams bosom. If I'm correct havent looked at that in sometime. The 2nd ressurection will come for the saints when Jesus comes. I'm rusty in that area right now but I believe it is something like that.
Galatians 2:20 is one of the most powerful verse's in all of written scripture. To those that are moving on in the Lord, to those that have so graciously by the grace of God moved into the deep things of God; (which is Christ in you; understanding who they are). A ongoing believer is; one that is not boxed in, not stopped, and not trapped but has kept moving on in the Lord. So what is it the believer goes on into? The Bible, the Holy Written Scriptures that are able to take the believer into the deep things of God and be taught - by the Spirit. Have you ever heard those that would say; I know what's in the Bible. One of the most ridiculous terms a believer can use. If the scriptures are the mind of God who can know what is written. Who among us can say I know what is in the Bible. That is one term that should never be used in the vocabulary of a human being. We are already a peculiar peopl. Ss the born-again; why add fuel to that fire.



The Holy Spirit is always opening up things in an area that you may have thought you already knew. It's okay when arguments are given and pleading your side of the story based on the understanding you have as a believer. Because every believer will be led by their understanding. It is the way a believer will be lead. All believers have a different understanding even if they understand the same thing. In Doctrine or in a Denomination that has their Doctrine and understanding - believers will see things in their own way. That is the uniqueness of each believer that is created in the image and likeness of God to have their own mind. The creation of the image and likeness of each believer is the unique expression that is given, that special touch believer will have and be led - by the Spirit.



So giving your side of the story is not wrong. It is the understanding you have of scripture and what is written. You can absolutely trust the Holy Spirit to lead you and guide you into all truth, as Jesus said; bringing all things to your remembrance.



20 At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you. - John 14:20.



The yielding - to the Spirit will also be absolutely necessary to go on in the Lord. A made-up mind that thinks it knows something cannot be led by their understanding. Why is that? Because the mind has already been made up and closed to the leading and following on; as the Apostle Paul said by the Holy Spirit. The scripture is written in the book of Acts! That Lydia had an open heart. Opening yourself to the Holy Spirit will take a open heart. You cannot be led by what you know, the only way you can be led is; by the understanding you have and staying open and yielded to the Holy Spirit is; if you have a open heart. The understanding you has been given by the Holy Spirit as a way of revealing spiritual things to you.



The Holy Spirit is the only one that can lead you into seeing your death on the cross; to every one that has believed upon the Lord Jesus Christ as their personal savior and into seeing that death of Jesus Christ as their death. All in Adam crucified by the death of Jesus Christ on the cursed tree. According to scripture everyone that hangeth on a tree would have the curse of death. That cursed tree bringing the; curse to the death (old man was - the death and was that death), into life as a believer (understanding the only life is christ in the believer). It is Jesus Christ that hung on that cursed tree and upon his death, all in Adam died.



14 For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead:



15 and that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again. - 2 Corinthians 5:14-15.



That death is the death of the old man. How does that work for a unbeliever? Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and 'thou shalt be saved and thy house'.



4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.

5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them.

6 But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above: )

7 or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.)

8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;

9that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.

13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. - Romans 10:4-13.



Every person alive 'Must Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ' if that salvation of God is to take place. It must not be mistaken; the only salvation of God is 'Christ in you the hope of glory.' What makes a Christian? Christ in you. Bless you!

I know what's in the Bible. One of the most ridiculous terms a believer can use. If the scriptures are the mind of God who can know what is written. Who among us can say I know what is in the Bible.

Luke disagrees:

It seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write unto thee in order, most excellent Theophilus,That thou mightest know the certainty of those things, wherein thou hast been instructed.

You also say several things with absolute authority of what's in the Bible.

Such as: all in Adam died.

For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.

Physical death, not death of the old man.

When Jesus dies all died in Christ on the cross

There are no dead unbelievers in Christ, not in His body, nor in the grave.

So, this changing of Scripture cannot be used to support a doctrine on the First resurrection. And anyone who attempts to teach the 1st resurrection has already occured for the dead in Christ, they must answer Paul:

Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.

At least in this matter I'm think gin you are prove your main point about not knowing what is in the Bible.

Also, if everyone's 'own understanding' about Scripture is different from others and ought be honored as such?, then how are there false teachers of Scripture, that steal and kill and destroy the sheep, since they are just giving their own understanding about it?

Galatians 2:20 is one of the most powerful verse's in all of written scripture. To those that are moving on in the Lord, to those that have so graciously by the grace of God moved into the deep things of God; (which is Christ in you; understanding who they are). A ongoing believer is; one that is not boxed in, not stopped, and not trapped but has kept moving on in the Lord. So what is it the believer goes on into? The Bible, the Holy Written Scriptures that are able to take the believer into the deep things of God and be taught - by the Spirit. Have you ever heard those that would say; I know what's in the Bible. One of the most ridiculous terms a believer can use. If the scriptures are the mind of God who can know what is written. Who among us can say I know what is in the Bible. That is one term that should never be used in the vocabulary of a human being. We are already a peculiar peopl. Ss the born-again; why add fuel to that fire.



The Holy Spirit is always opening up things in an area that you may have thought you already knew. It's okay when arguments are given and pleading your side of the story based on the understanding you have as a believer. Because every believer will be led by their understanding. It is the way a believer will be lead. All believers have a different understanding even if they understand the same thing. In Doctrine or in a Denomination that has their Doctrine and understanding - believers will see things in their own way. That is the uniqueness of each believer that is created in the image and likeness of God to have their own mind. The creation of the image and likeness of each believer is the unique expression that is given, that special touch believer will have and be led - by the Spirit.



So giving your side of the story is not wrong. It is the understanding you have of scripture and what is written. You can absolutely trust the Holy Spirit to lead you and guide you into all truth, as Jesus said; bringing all things to your remembrance.



20 At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you. - John 14:20.



The yielding - to the Spirit will also be absolutely necessary to go on in the Lord. A made-up mind that thinks it knows something cannot be led by their understanding. Why is that? Because the mind has already been made up and closed to the leading and following on; as the Apostle Paul said by the Holy Spirit. The scripture is written in the book of Acts! That Lydia had an open heart. Opening yourself to the Holy Spirit will take a open heart. You cannot be led by what you know, the only way you can be led is; by the understanding you have and staying open and yielded to the Holy Spirit is; if you have a open heart. The understanding you has been given by the Holy Spirit as a way of revealing spiritual things to you.

So what is it the believer goes on into?

Believers go on to, not into, perfection. To do so requires moving on from the 1st principles of Christ, which means we must start there: repenting from dead works of sin and having faith toward God... and resurrection of the dead.

Scripture is not saying that the resurrection of the dead in Christ has past, and we go on now from there. But rather the fact of there being a resurrection of the dead and eternal judgment is a 1st principle to believe.

A 'going on' after mortifying the deeds of the body, would be working out the inward sins of the mind and speech:

But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth. Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds. (Col 3)

And then finally there would be ridding ourselves of all our own works of righteousness, and entering into His rest, even as God did after His own works were done.

That would be when all we do is from Christ living in us, and are able to say, don't thank me, nor applaud me, but rather give thanks to Jesus in and through me, of it is not I that has done good, but Christ that lives in me that does the good.

This can never come to pass in the believer's life, until first things first: repentance from deeds of the flesh, renewing of the mind in Christ, and putting off all sins of speech and one's own works of righteousness.

The last one is the rarest, because sincere believers seeking His righteousness first, many times don't know the difference from our righteousness and rules, that we live by, and that of Christ and His rule of doctrine, for all to live by.

We must learn to live and let live within the rule of Christ, and not to judge others by our own household rules.

Each and every one of the signs Jesus gave may have occurred at one time or other. That is the reason that 2 Pet 3:3,4 was put into the Bible. Those signs would be prevalent during one generation RE. The real truth is, that the great tribulation Jesus referred to has not yet happened, as it will take the earth to the point of extinction, perhaps you overlooked that Mat 24:22. That has only happened once prior to Jesus saying it, therefore he was not referring to that one, but he did compare it to it. Jesus has not returned either, he will return at the fulfillment of that verse, to save the chosen ones. If you honestly think about it, I think you will realize that what I say about it is accurate.
The real truth is, that the great tribulation Jesus referred to has not yet happened

I would call it the 'last' great tribulation on earth at His returning, where He will have dominion over all the earth, where waring and raiding and looting and persecuting etc... will be instantly put down, and to death if necessary.

There have been many great tribulations on earth, including that of the flood. And through much tribulation do we enter the kingdom of God.

Anyone going through great tribulation in their own life cares not one bit if it involves the rest of the world. That great tribulation is greatest in life to them.

In this way we are indeed a world to ourselves.

Yes sir, for sure. I agree it will be very clear to everyone as it will take us to the point of extinction, as the Bible stated we would become extinct if Jesus don't step in on the count of the chosen ones.

Sure Luke had perfect understanding :) no such thing as perfect unless you are talking about knowing a little. Listen when you can speak and it stood - command and it was. No brother no knowing all the mind of God , its not necessary. Jsing

The necessary things of God to a believer is what we are after. It is the life here and then that will come out of that. We already see the glory of God - by all creation we see according to the scriptures.
