Just aired on Netflix, the movie "Leave The World Behind" (Executive Producers: Barack & Michelle Obama) depicts an end times apocalyptic scenario of an attack on America. It cites the would-be conspiracy theory of a worldwide cabal or ancient deep state or shadow government of elites and mafia...

Yes, "the dead in Christ" are those who are His who died before salvation came, while "the living in Christ" come after. Therefore it is written of Him, "I am the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last", for He was the First of the living and the Last of the dead. Of which He clarified...

1 Corinthians 12:4-14 There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. 5 There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord. 6 And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all. 7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit...

That's quite enough, but the above quote for the record.

I wasn't stating what I merely "believe." You missed Paul's clarification that "each one" of the chosen and saved comes into the presence of God "in his own [individual] order" or time. But no, I do not "argue" regarding what has been foretold of false prophets--or false teachers, the...

And if I am one sent (the meaning of the word "apostle")? Then you have blasphemed the Holy Spirit.

As long as you are going to accuse me--one thing at a time: You are obviously offended...after I said not to be. The truth should not offend, but often does--why? Because it goes against what someone may believe to the contrary, and yet that is the testimony of reality throughout biblical...

Those things are not incorrect. But you have not accurately addressed Paul's comment ("but each one in his own order") referring or clarifying that even though he had just grouped the dead and the living in Christ together to generalize and simplify his explanation--his clarification comment is...

I could go back and quote you--I already have. But regardless, tell me then: What do you say, what did Paul mean by "but each one in his own order?"

Please don't be offended--but welcome! Yet, I must say that, what you have posted above is the thinking of men (as men of the world think) through the lens of time as opposed to the timeless terms of God, by which such matters must be considered in order to have understanding. If you can...

That is a change in your prior claim. Good! However, it is not a matter of spirit now and physical later, but rather of what is physical first by elements followed by what is spirit only "but each in his own order"; or as it is also written, "However, the spiritual is not first, but the...

That may be your personal testimony. But that is not my testimony or that of the great host of witnesses who are the living, to whom Jesus has come already for thousands of years, nor that of many others also who have come into His presence "today" passing from death to life. Most assuredly, I...

Your above hypothesis is against Christ's own claim and rule beginning 2,000 years ago, saying, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth." The actual fulfillment of Daniel's prophecy is below, not after a "gap", but as Jesus said, "has been given" (past tense). After which the...

That is correct. Furthermore, God's word is under His providence and not that of man, or even the church (as the body does not rule over the Head). Even so, many church leaders are trained to the contrary, that all scripture is [not] God-breathed or inspired by God, but is first subject to...

Certainly there different ways to look at the question of why God is letting evil things happen. But to understand God, it is best to first consider things according to His terms, rather than the terms of this world--which more represent the consequences rather than the cause. In other words, we...

So many speculations, so much conjecture. :( Most are close. Yet, in very simple terms--Here it is: God is spirit; God has made mankind for His own purpose and pleasure; He is weeding out all evil; and meanwhile...one may hear about God's salvation from people of flesh and blood (even from...

The term "make believe" should be fully taken to heart. Any good parent (including God) rightly softens the harder realities of many things in life for their children first with something more gentle. Adults often do something similar even with other adults, saying things like, "Better sit...

Good! Here is the multiple (all in one) factor: 1 Corinthians 15:22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all shall be made alive.

No, nothing has been deleted. But why do you believe or assume the immortal body is physical, when it is written that we must be "born again of the spirit of God?" (Rhetorical) I've given you the answer already, that "that which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the spirit...

And yet what you have stated is not biblical, and does not, nor cannot be reconciled with all scripture. Matthew 6:23 But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is that darkness!
