What you have presented seems thrown together, and with your added conjecture. I mean really, what marriage includes "co-heirs", "sons, "daughters" and "family?" That's a salad. Even so, we are not so far off in what we have said. Indeed, He has come, and does come spiritually, as He gave away...

You should consider (before assuming to be correct) that God being "the same, yesterday, today, and forever" is a "OSASer." But to answer your question: It is our good work to defend the gospel, to make corrections, and to give reproof--to keep it holy, when confronted with error.

That is correct. But the point is not to take that so far as to categorically reject all, including those who may very well be sent by God for these times which were to be the finish of "all truth" from God.

You are looking at just the one enactment of 70ad, as being the time of Christ coming for His bride, which you say only includes some of the saved...or something like that. As for those who believe...many in Israel and even before Israel believed in the salvation of God according to His...

Before I get accused again of my own "private interpretation"-- let's get one thing straight: All revelations from God are "special." Why is it that most seem to think that revelations must be delivered on a silver platter by the consensus of a learned group of peers? That's not biblical--not...

You are missing the forest for the trees. Looking at the detail, you are missing the greater scope of things. To simplify, take it back to just the one man Adam, and just the one Last Adam who is Christ Jesus. By the sins of the one all are condemned. Likewise by the righteousness of the One...

The answers to your questions are not a problem, but your motivation is. You are obviously trying to promote your own errored understanding of what is written. But your misunderstanding of the scriptures is not the measure of what is true. One's own rationale is not the source--God is. Here are...

That's not biblical. The scriptures overall indicate that there is only One begotten Son of God who is One with God, and no one is saved except "in Him" as His body, which is to say, as His bride (one flesh). Thus, of all who are born of women, eternal life only belongs to the Son and His bride...

You do not believe that we the church are the bride of Christ, as the scriptures say? Ephesians 5:22-33 Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. 23 For the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church; and He is the Savior of the body. 24 Therefore, just as the...

What most miss in considering such things as freewill, is that all things were actually acted upon "in the twinkling of an eye" "before the foundation of the world"...and this is merely the reading of the "will." History is not a timeline, it's a storyline...of all that was before the...

First to answer the title question-- It is because people expect to see what cannot be seen, against everything God has said to the contrary. Most expect Jesus to return in the flesh, even though He gave us the church His body--He no longer possesses it...except in us. Does that not mean He has...

That's a bit of a salad. Are you sure you're not doing what you're doing for you rather than for the Lord? Sounds like it. As for the idea of inventing or "reinventing", inventing is of man...it won't fix anything. But do not be dismayed, nothing is in need of fixing that is not being fixed...

This is the revealing of the man of sin (all born of the flesh since the first Adam--one man) which was to come first before the day of the Lord which began 2,000 years ago with Christ the firstfruits--the Last Adam.

Satan is on a short leash...and yet just as he used Peter to try and thwart the salvation plan of God in Christ, Satan can and is working to prolong his end...even using many like Peter. As for who to believe, believe only the Spirit. Test everything and everyone. But do not be deceived, even...

On the contrary--none of the events of the so-called fall were by accident or not according to the will of God. Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things. In truth, "the knowledge of good and evil", is the means by which...

:( The beliefs expressed here in the Original Post [again], are merely what has been propagated by those "false teachers" foretold by both Peter and Paul, who were "already at work" in the church since the its beginning. Many are their victims. I say again, just as Jesus clarified that we who...

Yes.

So there are two different types of rest (the rest of Christ now (1), and the rest that only comes when the work is finished (2)), but you just want to refer to the one and make the point that "the Christian life is a life of rest." Alrighty then.

The point is, if God has shown us anything of himself in creating man in his own image, like the reflection made of us looking into a pool of water, the terms of what is true of God and what is true of man--is not the terms of the water...because the two are not actually the same. For, the...

Yes, that is what I am saying...which is that the peace and rest of Christ is one thing and the rest of God another. The fact that we remain in the flesh and in the world in part, by definition means that we have not fully ascended as Jesus has. Which by definition by the example of Jesus, is...
