    Not ALL the physically dead are raised at the same time, the dead in Christ rise FIRST.

    He was writing to the Israelite Christian diaspora. The Church.

    Not ALL the physically dead are raised at the same time, the dead in Christ rise FIRST.

    You don't know it, otherwise you would have affirmed it. You messed up on the second word as well. The definition with which 1 Peter 1:1 is associated is "sojourners far away from home, in Pontus". Unsurprisingly, you're batting exactly zero. :laughing:

    Not ALL the physically dead are raised at the same time, the dead in Christ rise FIRST.

    It was not a "Jewish" diaspora. It was a diaspora of Israelite Christians, who were both Jews and Gentiles. Israel was comprised of both Jews and Gentiles from the time of its birth. God is not a racist. Your most desperate efforts will never contort Him into one. Toss your Darby Scofield...

    Not ALL the physically dead are raised at the same time, the dead in Christ rise FIRST.

    Did you flunk kindergarten English? Obviously. Strong associates 1 Peter 1:1 with the "metaphoric" definition. It is cited at the end of the "metaphoric" definition to show the association. Strong does not associate 1 Peter 1:1 with the "proper" definition. It is not cited at the end of the...

    Could Russia be a bear?

    Ephesians 3:20-21 rebuts your delusion.

    Could Russia be a bear?

    False. Ephesians 3 20 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, 21 Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen. The true Church has endured, and will endure...

    Could Russia be a bear?

    Incomprehensible antiScriptural cultic gibberish. You were converted to a gnostic cult. Your claim that everyone and everything except yourself is apostate is a classic trademark of cultism. Your derogation of the faith, vision, and sacrifice of the saints of the historic true Christian...

    Whom to believe? 1. You 2. James Strong Need a hint? :laughing: Whom to believe? 1. You 2. KJV translators Need another hint? :laughing:

    It is time to give Pretrib a decent burial

    The Daniel 9:27 hallucinatory antichrist is the epitome of foolishness. Conspicuously absent from any OT lexicon.

    Could Russia be a bear?

    Yes, the Early Church Fathers and Reformers were "apostate "babes" who were spiritually blind and under Satan's deceptions". Spoken like a genuine cultist. What's the name of yours? :laughing: Go peddle your modernist imaginary figments elsewhere.

    Not for 1 Peter 1:1, he doesn't. Learn to read. Are you alive when you're lively (presuming you are)? :laughing:

    It is time to give Pretrib a decent burial

    The word "antichrist" appears nowhere in the OT, because there is no word for it in Biblical Hebrew or Aramaic. Nor has the historic true Christian Church for 17 centuries before 1800 ever heard of "antichrist" in Daniel 9:27. It is a figment of modernist dispensational futurized fantasy and...

    Could Russia be a bear?

    Yes, the old covenant ended spiritually at Calvary, but its physical trappings persisted until 70 AD. That is why the physical destruction of Jerusalem was essential. You're missing that. You're ignoring the Luke 21:20 identification of the abomination of desolation; and you're ignoring the...

    I concur with Strong. Do you understand "lively stones" now?

    Could Russia be a bear?

    Realities are both physical and spiritual. The physical reality of 70 AD marked the complete physical and spiritual end of the old covenant, and the full inauguration of the physical and spiritual realities of the New Covenant. Neither reality can exist without the other. The Judaean...

    They fled in 66 AD. Judgment fell in 70 AD.

    Not ALL the physically dead are raised at the same time, the dead in Christ rise FIRST.

    It makes perfect sense, because "lively" was an older English word for "living". Strong's definition: " in the N. T. metaphorically, in reference to heaven as the native country, one who sojourns on earth: so of Christians, 1 Peter 1:1;" It makes perfect sense. Churches are filled with...

    Not ALL the physically dead are raised at the same time, the dead in Christ rise FIRST.

    Leave it right where it is. Does the Greek "stones living" make sense, or doesn't it? You've already been shown conclusively from longstanding recognized linguistic authority James Strong that Peter's epistle is addressed to the sojourning Church. Jesus Himself referred to the Nation to which...
