Hello @Davy, Seeing your subject heading re. this thread: my thoughts went to Paul's defence before Felix, in which he said, 'But this I confess unto thee, that after the way which they call heresy, so worship I the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the law and in...

2 Corinthians 4:7-18 2 Corinthians 5:1-10 Hello @Davy, The Scripture referenced above is the context in which the reference you quote (2 Corinthians 5:8) is given, and should be read in order to fully understand what Paul is saying:- 'For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle...

'For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto His glorious body, according to the working whereby He is able even to subdue all things unto himself.' (Php 3:20-21)...

'Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God. For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.' (Mat 22:29-30) Hello @Davy, The words of the Lord here in Matthew 22:30, that...

Hello @Hidden In Him, Please read my response to Mungo. It is not the gospel of the Kingdom that saved you and me, @Hidden In Him: but the gospel of the grace of God. The gospel of the Kingdom of God will again be preached at the end of the age, when the door to that Kingdom will again be...

Hello @Enoch111, That is an accusation which is extremely serious. I think that you should be very careful to be sure of your ground before you make such an accusation. I know that what you say is untrue. I share their view in regard to the example you have given, so are you going to tar me...

Hello there, The Sermon on the Mount covers chapters Matthew 5-7: and a reading of it portrays an atmosphere which does not reflect that of The Kingdom of Heaven portrayed by the Old Testament prophets: for when that finds it's fulfilment, and Christ reigns in righteousness as The Son of David...
