I love nothing of evolution, for it is only for those who believe it. But what I do love, is that God has placed before all who are born, both life and death that each may choose.

If I may... Just as the crucifixion event was local and yet extends to include the greater context of all who are born from the beginning of the world unto the end, so too are many biblical enactments, each having a smaller local context and also a larger all inclusive context. So then, yes...

True, yet just as with the death and life of Christ, although Israel was destroyed at Calvary, they the chosen were also saved. These are the dead in Christ.

You have covered a lot of territory. I will be more concise. I am not sure if you are saying "the implication is that sin will still continue in eternity" is my implication or that of scripture. But, no, I did not mean to imply such a thing. On the contrary, all the elements of creation (that...

No, but all things point to Christ. He is our rest, our Sabbath. Indeed, unlike those who were to keep the Sabbath until He came, we keep Him who is our Sabbath, because He has come, Him being in us and we in Him.

I spend most of my time here attempting to clarify the misconceptions of most Christians. Now, that may sound arrogant, but no--it's not me--it's just that time, that time that was foretold of being lead unto all truth and the finish of the mystery of God as He told to His servants the...

Thanks for elaborating! And yet there is no contradiction between the afore mentioned passages. What is actually being said and clarified if not only eluded to by Paul, is that being "born again" is also to be "caught up." We are likely to imagine that this means when we pass from this world...

Yes, this is true, except for the common understanding of the timing being only "future." Contrary to popular belief, Jesus is now in the midst and nearing the end of His return which began to "come quickly" after He ascended to the Father, just as He said. The timing of which Paul eluded to...

No, sorry, that is not what I said or meant at all. Sin rather continues only until the man of sin (of flesh) expires. As it is written, "And when he comes, he must continue a short time."

No, it would appear that most of Christendom believes that both 3.5 time periods occur as a final "week" after a "gap" between the first 69 weeks of Daniel's prophecy (the times of the Gentiles)...or something along those lines. Which is not true. On the contrary, all things were and are...

Walter, Perhaps you could elaborate, as it does appear that you have contradicted 1 Peter 1:23 in your above OP, but then here "also" acknowledge it??

It is important in understanding what it is to be "born again" (or when) to take a full grasp of the distinction that Jesus made, saying, "That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit." John 3:6 In other words, being born again is not "having a...

Yes, to both. There is an end that is personal for "each one in his own order", and there is also an end that comes for Israel and for the Gentiles-- "first the Jew and then to the Greek." To each their own generation, the most evil of which brings the end of their time. This is the second time...

Tongues was and is a sign-- not to be blabbed out as if parading in a religious robe, but rather a very simple message that points to the biblical reality that it is the Holy Spirit who gives both utterance by word, and spiritual discernment by interpretation. And yes, it is not the actual gift...

This verse in 1 Corinthians 13 has been greatly misunderstood: 1 Corinthians 13:10 But when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away. If you will consider the whole chapter and passage, it should be rather obvious that Paul was saying something very much...

The problem is, the error listed here is equal to the error of the Preterist. Notice that I include "the error of the Preterists"-- indicating that I do not espouse their beliefs. So, you can continue to point to the speck in their eye, or we can perhaps look at the plank in your own eye. Are...

...Sooo...you believe that Adam and every man since (except Jesus) is not a "man of sin is revealed." Great! Such delusion. :(

Still squirming I see. Still haven't answered the question. Still rejecting the whole counsel of God. A tree is known by its fruit. Obviously you have no intention of facing and acknowledging the whole truth. We're done here.

Out of one side of your mouth you accuse me of being "evasive", while out of the other side of your mouth you yourself are evasive rather and stubbornly continue to leave out the very idea of "Whoever has been born of God does not sin" 1 John 3:9. Jesus has a name for such behavior.

That is only part, and the other part you reject. And by that same half-measure it shall be measured back to you.
