    dont ever trade spiritual desires for psychical desires!

    Was Jesus Christ resurrected into a spiritual body or a physical body?

    No, those were not quotes “partial” or otherwise. They were questions that I immediately answered. Which you failed to recognize which seems odd since you are the one telling me to study grammar: Apparently what I said struck a nerve, which is strange, since you admit: I wasn’t trying to...

    Wow, way to blame me for your false assumptions; what a cop-out.

    Ah. So you assumed that when I said: I was speaking of man's works. Well, you know what they say about making assumptions. Let's go through what I said: In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the...

    I do not disagree with Paul, but please feel free to show me where you think I fault. No it is to accept his supreme authority; It is to know and obey him. Now before you get all wound up let me just state this: Christ is God. He is the Lord of Lords, King of Kings, the Holy One...

    I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say...................because pork chops weren't on the menu. LOL

    The view of the "Gentleman God" who honors human will above His own.

    Please, elaborate. You said earlier: That is just a false statement. Do you have to be circumcised to be saved? Yes. Do you have to be baptized to be saved? Yes. Do you have to be destroyed to be saved? Yes. Do you have to repent to be saved? Yes. Do you have to obey the doctrine of...

    Yes, and rather than create false doctrines they should have left it as is. That’s true, and no Jesus was not “resurrected from the Grave” nor was he resurrected from a tomb. He was resurrected from DEATH! And no, his body did not see decay. His physical body did turn back to dust though; it...

    What is the context of the New Testament. It’s not bad news is it? In post #83 you said: Is not the context of the New Testament salvation; the gospel? The context of the New Testament is Good News right? That could turn into an interesting conversation depending on how we perceive that...

    - in the realm of the dead, where you are going, there is neither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom. (Ecc 9:10) - NIV If it weren’t for Ecc 9:10, that would be a true statement; they do make it sound like you’re conscious. There is no consistency in their translation of the Hebrew...

    The view of the "Gentleman God" who honors human will above His own.

    That’s not a very detailed answer so I decided to dig a bit into the NIV to see if I could understand what these translators consider “the realm of the dead” to be. According to them, the inside of a fish is “the realm of the dead”: Jonah 2 1 [a]From inside the fish Jonah prayed to the Lord...

    What realm? The realm of the dead? I’m a bit lost here. What is the realm of the dead and what is it’s purpose? Please explain. Peace.

    I won’t explain that in one post. But if you answer the question I posed in post #66 Christ may start to open your eyes to this truth. The NIV makes it sound like the dead live in a kingdom where they can’t work or plan which would seem obvious because there’s no knowledge or wisdom in that...

    Hello Ronald, Since I also teach that all shall be saved, I’m going to jump in here. Here are 10 witnesses to the contrary: And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world. (1 John 4:14) The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith...

    The view of the "Gentleman God" who honors human will above His own.

    Correct and at that time he was in the heart of the earth. Yes, and at that time he was in the heart of the earth. Yes. On what day was Jesus ressurected? I disagree here. I believe hades is the state of being dead. When you die you're dead. Peace.

    The view of the "Gentleman God" who honors human will above His own.

    God certainly did give us the power to choose. He also gave my dog power to choose, but guess what my dog doesn't have free will, unless we use your definition of free will. Yes God does hold us accountable for our choices, but God is responsible for our salvation. That's why he sent us a...

    No it was just a choice based on circumstance. Really? Animals make choices. Computers make choices. Robots make choices. No, I don't have free will and neither do you.

    For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. (Mat 12:40) Jesus rarely spoke plainly, yet most believe he he did. Most believe he was in the tomb for three days and three nights; he was not...

    Yes we all have will; just not free will. Jesus was praying that he not be put to death but he knew exactly whose will is to be done. He was, at that time, in the heart of the earth.
