    How the idea of Immortal Soul got into the Church

    Yes, I do. Romans 5:12 diametrically opposes your view. Rom 5:19 also opposes your view. Heb 2:14, Heb 2:9, Your answer shows you do not know because there is no text in all of scripture that states man inherited sin from Adam. Logically, biologically it is impossible to inherit any sin...

    SATAN, NOT BOUND YET

    You are correct, however, we are discussing the NT.

    SATAN, NOT BOUND YET

    Ad hominoms don't really advance any discussion. Expecially when they are false. I'm not a dispensationalist. It might be better if you would check Church History. As far as my understanding of scripture, the Church began at Pentacost and will end with His Second Coming the end of the Age...

    How the idea of Immortal Soul got into the Church

    You say Romans, but just where does it say we inherited Adam's sin?

    How the idea of Immortal Soul got into the Church

    Contrary. It says quite plainly "Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and DEATH THROUGH THAT ONE SIN, and thus death spread to all men, because all men sinned through death. The following verses clarifies that explanation. Man cannot have sin nature. Sin is not an...

    How the idea of Immortal Soul got into the Church

    Correct. It depends on Christ's resurrection. Christ now can call all men to repentance. Man will decide by how own will if they will follow Christ or Satan. This would not have been possible if Christ first did not defeat death, the curse given to Adam for his sin.

    How the idea of Immortal Soul got into the Church

    I'm not sure just how your comments relate to my post. However, just some comments: Scripture presupposes the immortality of the soul. No human being will receive an immortal existence, both body and soul until the Second Coming of Christ. I Cor 15: 53 - 54. It is not dependent on the...

    How the idea of Immortal Soul got into the Church

    It isn't the texts that are incorrect. It is your interpretation of them where you err. These verses DO NOT state man inherited the sin of Adam. It states that Adam sinned, and death came because of that sin. We became mortal. This mortality is what we inherited. We sin because we are...

    SATAN, NOT BOUND YET

    You may not call it the Church Age, but it is the period of Time from Christ's Resurrection, formation of His Church to the end of time. Rev 20 has always been recognized as a summary of the Church Age. As far as I know the only people who don't hold the scriptural view are dispensationalists...

    How the idea of Immortal Soul got into the Church

    There is no text anywhere in scripture that states mankind has ever inherited the sin of Adam. What we have inherited is the punishment Adam received for his sin. It was the curse of death. Christ overcame death by His resurrection. How can you miss such clear scriptures as Gen3:19, Rom 5:12...

    AMILLENNIALISM, A GNOSTIC DOCTRINE

    There have been many variations of some form of Millennialism from earliest times. All modern views probably came from some earlier view. However most current modern forms probably started with William Miller in mid 19th century. Another one would be Darby. Today we have Lindsey, Walvoord...

    How the idea of Immortal Soul got into the Church

    Quite contrary. My whole post originally was ONLY about mankind. It never even referenced man's spiritual existence with God. In my second post I also only referenced the relationship God had with His creation from the cause of separation, namely death, the curse given to Adam. That...

    SATAN, NOT BOUND YET

    Excellent explanation.

    How the idea of Immortal Soul got into the Church

    You show a total misunderstanding of Gospel respective of the creation of man and this world, the fall of man and the redemption of the world from the fall, which put the universe right with God, so that His prime creature, man, could again be in communion with Him in this world. I explained...

    How the idea of Immortal Soul got into the Church

    ALL men are made righteous. Righteous does not mean no sinners. It means to be made correct, right. Christ reversed the curse of the fall and made all things right. Defeated death. I Cor 15:21-22 says the same thing.

    SATAN, NOT BOUND YET

    Rev 20 is a summation of current Church Age. Christ did not come 2000 years or more after the Church was established. It was established with the Apostles. Christ first words of His ministry was, Repent, for the Kingdom is at hand. What Kingdom? His Church. Granted the Apostles were men, but...

    How the idea of Immortal Soul got into the Church

    Sin is not commutable, Rom 5:12 clearly states that death is what is passed to all men. I Cor 15:20-22. Rom 5:18 reinforces this concept. Your misinterpretation makes Christ a sinner if sin is passed through our human nature. Christ took on our human nature in every respect. Christ came to...

    How the idea of Immortal Soul got into the Church

    Depends on context. In the context of Christ's ressurrection He gave life to all men, I Cor 15:21-22. At the resurrection all men will receive immortality and incorruptibility I Cor 15: 52-53. As far as definitions go, immortal is also eternal. The other context where it is used is when...

    Predestinated to Salvation !

    Making an irrelevant statement without evidence is just that, a nonsensical statement.
