    The Sheep and the Goats

    I'm not sure I even follow what you have described...but Jesus' brothers that He was referring to, He clarified before His mother and His disciples, saying, "whoever does the will of My Father in heaven is My brother and sister and mother.” In other words, He was not referring to Israel per se...

    The thief on the cross misconceptions

    Ernest, sorry for appearing to be harsh, but again, you are under the wrong impression and making assumptions in error. Let's start here: In God's reality (the only reality) it is not that "these facts are not negated with God being a Spirit", but that EVERYTHING of this world is negated with...

    The Transition from Time...to Eternity.

    No, it's just that your acronym coded broken english is like clanging cymbals (just noise). But you tried to clarify...so maybe there's hope. Did you mean "No one has ever gone up to heaven, [AND] There is only One Immortal, etc?" And are you referring to something I said, or are you making...

    The Transition from Time...to Eternity.

    You are correct--I don't understand most of what you write, nor what you just said. Does anyone? Surely you must just be here for your own reasons. Anyone want to say you understand bbyrd009, or that he is perfectly clear and having great communication skills? Anyone?

    The thief on the cross misconceptions

    That is not the problem. You are missing the point and the purpose of all scripture. The future of God's people is "not of this world" or liquid water...nor a temple made with hands, etc.. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. The problem is rather people preferring to and holding onto...

    The Transition from Time...to Eternity.

    If you know and are capable of "perfect English", you are not using it. This is on you. Yes, every time the rubber meets the road, your communication skills don't cut it. And, yes, those are parables, if you need me to translate--I can do that.

    The thief on the cross misconceptions

    There is the error (enlarged above). God is spirit. The words are spirit. On earth as it is in heaven--spirit. That they may be one as We are--spirit. It would appear that you are not getting the message.

    The Transition from Time...to Eternity.

    You are not being clear. Best I can figure is you were just trying to dis' me after an illiterate rant. You might start with telling me what you mean by "vv."

    The Bible, God's word or mans?

    Believe anything you like, ignore anything you don't like, and then make whatever claims according to your own conjecture, and preach it as the gospel truth! At least that is what many do without as much as giving it a second thought...or so it seems. It's as if life were a jigsaw puzzle and...

    The Transition from Time...to Eternity.

    You rejected my "direct" answer, so I told you the truth about the words being a parable because men have trouble comprehending--and sure enough, you didn't comprehend that either. I'll say it again... "Eternity" (in the original language) is a parable of which the spiritual meaning is rather...

    The Transition from Time...to Eternity.

    I saw what you did--everyone did. You made a word game out of God's word, claiming that the words given in parable were what is real rather than what they are a parable of. Obviously, you still don't get that it has all been a parable, created in men, in word, in the world, in His mere "image."...

    Beware of Chief Prince of Rosh, Meseck! Ezekiel 38 (President of Russia, Putin!)

    Boy, are you in for a big surprise! And soon.

    The Transition from Time...to Eternity.

    I have lost nothing, nor could I. And there is no argument. I explained that the common modern use of the word "eternity" is sufficient to describe what is "everlasting", "never ending", etc., with regard to God--and you know it.

    The Manner of Jesus' Return

    Ronald, that's not a reasonable argument. The only way that "every eye will see Him" would even be possible as a world event, is if Jesus returned every day in all of history, or if everyone who had ever lived were resurrected in mounds of bodies all over the world...which in both cases He...

    The thief on the cross misconceptions

    Yes, God has quite literally drawn a picture and given a living parable (--of which none are deprived), and you have given a great depiction of it. Even so, many do not see.

    The Transition from Time...to Eternity.

    I am saying nothing different, but you are discounting or perhaps attempting to take away the promise of eternal life and what “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.” And no, not "at the expense of...

    The Transition from Time...to Eternity.

    I have no problem saying what is true of "me"--I have, yes. And I have no problem with saying "I know", because what I know and confess, is that "it is no longer I who lives, but Christ who lives in me." Therefore, I do not say what is mine, but rather what is His, that is mine to say. So, don't...
