    God's Personal Name & New World Translation

    I can only answer for myself, in which case it is because it was the answer given to Moses first before He elaborated regarding Israel. And because it is echoed by Jesus in spirit. What is it that you were referring to?

    Why the FLESH is against the SPIRIT.

    When one is born again, they are not born again of the flesh, but rather of the spirit of God. Meaning, as the scriptures say, that "it is no longer they who live, but Christ who lives in them." So, no, there is no going back of any kind. All who are saved have been born again of the spirit of...

    "Church pastors" where are you???

    You compliment yourself with the baby's blood you omitted. God is not mocked.

    Understanding the Prophetic Word

    First, before this can be at all profitable for the kingdom of God, it should to be understood that what any of us say or claim as our own means nothing, but only what comes from God. In which case I am happy to share what is true and from Him--not by interpretation or reference to common words...

    Why the FLESH is against the SPIRIT.

    I do want to be kind, but you apparently have neither heard Paul or myself. What you are suggesting is not even possible: How do you suppose if "old things have passed away" meaning "the old man", that there is anything for such a person to go back to when that "old man" has "passed away?" The...

    "Church pastors" where are you???

    Abortion is still the sheading of innocent blood.

    "Church pastors" where are you???

    If you want to stand before the Lord upon technicalities, your life is in your hands and God's. But there are plenty of words from God that you should know better. Here's some more: Exodus 23:7 Keep yourself far from a false matter; do not kill the innocent and righteous. For I will not justify...

    "Church pastors" where are you???

    Here is what the Bible says: Exodus 21:22-25 “If men fight, and hurt a woman with child, so that she gives birth prematurely, yet no harm follows, he shall surely be punished accordingly as the woman’s husband imposes on him; and he shall pay as the judges determine. 23 But if any harm follows...

    1 Corinthians 15 - Resurrection Chapter by Paul

    1 Corinthians 15:46 However, the spiritual is not first, but the natural, and afterward the spiritual.

    1 Corinthians 15 - Resurrection Chapter by Paul

    The chapter is like a 2,000 year old dance that is still as beautiful as it ever was. Yet, biblically speaking, that makes it a cog in a large wheel that God is moving forward, or bricks upon a foundation that was still being built. This, Paul also wrote about. Which I do not say to discredit it...

    Why the FLESH is against the SPIRIT.

    It is evident in this passage that Paul was not talking to those who had been "changed", but to those who had not. But you are assuming that they had actually been changed and that they were "a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new", which Paul also said...

    When Jesus said, “there is none good but one, that is, God.” did He mean nobody could be good?

    No...as He also said, "you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect." Matthew 5:48

    Understanding the Prophetic Word

    You can stop calling me Preterist--that is not at all what I have been talking about. But you are wrong. You apparently believe that the Temple was destroyed, why then do you not believe all of the"—things which must shortly take place" actually did also? I would ask you to name one thing...

    The theological fallacy of a spiritual 'resurrection'

    Great! Now, since we got off track a little (sorry for the post tag shuffle ;))...the main point that I was making, is that the chronology of the world, and the non-chronology of eternal events--for lack of a better term, come in "real time." Meaning, there is no discrepancy between the past...

    The theological fallacy of a spiritual 'resurrection'

    God's word is rather a mix of both the times of this world and of His eternal kingdom, and therefore must be "rightly divided." Again, God has appointed both, and therefore we are indeed to live to both, and yet give greater credence to that which is greater.

    The theological fallacy of a spiritual 'resurrection'

    I should have said more. By name, it is Christ who is "the End." And He is also "the Beginning." Meaning that all things exist within the bounds of Christ, rather than what the world would say based on its assessment of what it understands at its lower mechanical and scientific level--which is...

    The theological fallacy of a spiritual 'resurrection'

    Yes, as the world would consider its own history, that much is true. However in the kingdom of God and the record of eternal events written--where there is "no shadow of turning" (no time), no such chronology exists. But that is rather the language that inspires what the world would find...

    Will there be or is there a need for a future Messianic age?

    Yes, but in that is the common misunderstanding that says even though Jesus went to the Father and has returned when those who heard His knocking, let Him in, but say that He has not come a second time already. But if the one is true, so is the other...and to deny it, is to deny one has Jesus...

    The theological fallacy of a spiritual 'resurrection'

    The 'isms are complicated indeed! I do not recognize any of the 'isms, as they each refer to the times of this world as opposed to the day of the Lord, whom is not of this world. If you are willing...I will explain: The so-called "climax of human history" is again, a perception based on the...

    Will there be or is there a need for a future Messianic age?

    Good point...no need then to take communion, for those to whom He has already "come in to, and sups with." Nonetheless, what had not yet happened, He foretold, His body was broken and blood spilled, and we can rejoice!
