    Where are the Dead? Part 12

    "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. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. For this I say unto you, by the word of...

    Where are the Dead? Part 11

    “For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain. But if I live on in the flesh, this will mean fruit from my labor; yet what I shall choose I cannot tell, for I am hard-pressed between the two, having a desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better.” (Phil 1:21-23 NKJV) “In no way...

    GEN 1:1-2 SPEAKS MORE THAN CREATION!

    Since man only arrived on the earth 6000 years ago any speculation about fossilized bones being older than that is just that, speculation. And yes we agree with you that the creative days consisted of thousands of years each, and being as order is heavens first law it only seems logical that as...

    GEN 1:1-2 SPEAKS MORE THAN CREATION!

    Except that it implies that God's works are not perfect, that He failed once in His creative work and had to try again, and once again His "supposed" perfect works were thwarted by the Adversary. Radio carbon dating is only reliable for about 50,000 years beyond that it is guess work, not to...

    Where are the Dead? Part 10

    Once again take a look at the preceding verse (Phil 1:20), "According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also, Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life or death." Mark the expression whether...

    Where are the Dead? Part 9

    We continue once again with our look at the comments made by one of our forum members who believes that when a Christian dies he (apart from his body) does not sleep in death to await the resurrection, but goes immediately to be with the Lord. As proof of his position he supplied the following...

    No-one has gone to heaven?

    As it is written: “His breath (the spirit or power of life) goes forth (returns to the source of all life); he (the soul or sentient being) returns to his earth, in that very day his thoughts perish,” (Psa. 146:4) and there he remains awaiting the resurrection.

    No-one has gone to heaven?

    I would suggest you go back and read our statement again as it is apparent you missed the part about how they too must believe and accept the redemption which is in Christ Jesus alone. As for the idea that we have "fabricated" the age to come, and the times of restitution of all things, for that...

    A Wheel In The Middle Of A Wheel

    Then I chose to accept being called a fool for the truths sake rather than bow to the wisdom of men. The wisdom of God (the truth) is often esteemed by men to be foolishness. But even yet, "The foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men." (1 Cor 1:25)

    No-one has gone to heaven?

    They are as much saved in Christ as they were condemned in Adam, "For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all shall be made alive." (1 Cor 15:22), nevertheless its true that they must first believe and accept this redemption in order for it to be made applicable to themselves. This the...

    No-one has gone to heaven?

    Unfortunately my friend you are confused and are mixing the "The Two Salvations" together, "our common salvation" (Jude 3) salvation from the Adamic curse, applicable to all with that of the "great salvation" (Heb 2:3), "our salvation" (Rom 13:11) the special salvation of the church (1 Pet 1:10)...

    A Wheel In The Middle Of A Wheel

    The literal 24 hour creation theory has long since been debunked my friend, it has far to many holes in it. For those who are awake and not prone to ignorance please see our blog post entitled, "The Record of Creation", Parts 30 and 34-36, 38 more specifically.

    A Wheel In The Middle Of A Wheel

    What does the idea of a 7000 year day have to do with the theory of evolution? Please explain how a 7000 year day supports the idea of the theory of evolution? We do however believe that a measure of evolution took place as is suggested by the statement that "the earth brought forth" the...

    Let's Talk About Love!

    The Importance of Love Someone asked Jesus, “Master, which is the great commandment in the law?” There were 3,600 commandments at that time in the Jewish law and the question they put to Jesus was: “which one is the greatest?” Jesus said unto them: “thou shalt LOVE ...” Doesn't this show that...

    Where are the Dead? Part 8

    Now what about our friend’s reference to James 2:26, that “the body without the spirit is dead”, does this not prove his point? He states, “The body is the only part of man that dies at physical death. The reason it dies is because the inner man, the life of the body, leaves the body. It then...

Note we are not selectively pointing out this individual, but are merely presenting his viewpoint as it representative of the same or...

    Where are the Dead? Part 6

    THE PROPOSITION "The proposition under discussion as stated is a clear admission that the dead are unconscious for the reason it assumes -- that there is to be an awakening. Mark the words thereof, 'that the dead are unconscious from the moment of death until the moment of awakening to the...

    Where are the Dead? Part 5

    DEATH -- SLEEP Since God has made provision for the awakening of the dead to the resurrection, the Bible frequently speaks of death as sleep. Sleep is a symbol of death, and the word is used in that sense. A man lies down to sleep and we say he will wake again. And so we say with reference to...

    Where are the Dead? Part 4

    WHY MEN DIE It is a principle of God's law that every perfect, righteous creature is entitled to life. It follows that every unrighteous creature has no legal right to life. God enforced his judgment against Adam in a gradual manner, viz. -- by forcing Adam out of Eden, where the food was...

    THE PENALTY OF THE LAW "God said to Adam, “but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.” (Gen 2:17) If the soul is immortal, then God did not mean what he said, because an immortal creature could not be put to...
