If it can't be backed up by Scripture, then it is just another of 10,000,000 opinions. I already perceive that you believe Scripture is NOT the standard to test the spirits.

You used poetic expressions perhaps to answer the second question, but you never answered my first question... where in Scripture does it say Jesus lays His head on His body?

Instead of a bunch of metaphysical rambling, how about answering my two questions? For the third time... True, believers comprise the Body of Christ, but where in Scripture does it say Jesus lays His head on His body? Do you lay your head on your body??

Please answer my two questions which I already asked... True, believers comprise the Body of Christ, but where in Scripture does it say Jesus lays His head on His body? Do you lay your head on your body??

11 I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? God forbid: but rather through their fall salvation is come unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy. 15 For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the...

True believers comprise the Body of Christ, but where in Scripture does it say Jesus lays His head on His body? Do you lay your head on your body??

But you were suggesting perhaps ‘we’ are the Promised Land…I hope not.

Four people responded to you directly, which one of us four are you directing your comment above to?

unlikely... 1 Corinthians 15:50 (NASB) Now I say this, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.

That does not seem to jive with this... These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off were assured of them, embraced them and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. (Heb 11:13) BTW, I guess I am a bit confused about the purpose...

Actually, Christ's death more than just covered our sin, His blood actually purged our sin... And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood...

I find it interesting that when Jesus explained the new birth to Nicodemus, He also included an allusion to His death and resurrection (Jn 3:13-14). Many skip over that point and say 'Just believe in Jesus' without further explanation.

Hopefully my heart doesn't teach me, but rather God's Spirit, through God's Word. Jeremiah 17:9 NKJV [9] "The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it?

Sounds like the exhortation is to heed the sure Word until either Jesus returns or we pass on to be with Him

I agree. I'd like to add that in the James/Paul discussions, Paul spends four chapters (Rom 1-4) describing how we are justified and then again one chapter in Gal 3. James, on the other hand spends only 7 verses and at that describes what a justified person looks like. Yet, the Scripture...

Fine, let's discuss it. What was the problem with my point?

Oh pleeez, I gave one Scripture that best summarized my point. You added the whole chapter saying " the doctrine that Timothy referred to". First of all, it was Paul who wrote that letter and secondly, I could have quoted all 6 chapters of 1st Timothy to give it a wider context, if that was your...

The doctrine put forward in the Scriptures… 1 Timothy 4:16 NKJV [16] Take heed to yourself and to the doctrine. Continue in them, for in doing this you will save both yourself and those who hear you.

There is another passage I often resort to in expressing the Gospel... 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 (KJV) Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto...
