    The "Fall" in Genesis (what does the text of Scripture say?)

    1 Cor 15 is speaking about Adam bringing the second death upon all of mankind. We speak of the second death as being a spiritual death but the reality is that the second death is a complete separation of each of our spirits from God. It is not as such speaking of a spiritual death. That has...

    The Old Man and The New Man

    Because it give the indication of how ancient the treasure is.

    Malachi and Elijah

    I agree with you, but when Keraz's understanding is based on a faulty translation of the source text, he is being deceived. Who by? Well, from your post, you have suggested that that is Satan.

    Malachi and Elijah

    I agree, God does not confuse us, but Satan certainly does intentionally. Before anyone jumps on the band wagon of who may or may not be right, remember that time will tell the outcome of who has been deceived in their understanding of the scriptures.

    The "Fall" in Genesis (what does the text of Scripture say?)

    John, your taught blinkers are stopping you from seeing the truth. Physical death was always present for all of mankind. However, the length of a mans' life was initially around the 900-1000 years duration before it slowly reduced to no more than 120 years duration as shown in the attached...

    The "Fall" in Genesis (what does the text of Scripture say?)

    Joseph, you are making an easy put down, without providing the proof necessary to justify the claim. As such you are not furthering the conversation but you are a hinderance to the conversation with people ignoring what may well be true because of the lack of substance in your post.

    The Old Man and The New Man

    Oh Marks, the book of Hebrews speaks a lot about the MT. Sinai covenant of the Kingdom of Priests and a Holy Nation and God's Possession among the Nation Covenant which will again become a reality in our near future with the House of Israel and Judah after the Israelites repent of their...

    Malachi and Elijah

    Have you changed your theory. I thought that i understood what you were claiming a couple of months back, but the gist of what I had said is still fairly accurate for understanding a moving target. As for my request of Joseph77, I said that I would wait for his paraphrased understanding of the...

    Salvation Through Baptism ???

    Really, the scriptures do say something very differently. Acts 8:38-39: - 38 So he commanded the chariot to stand still. And both Philip and the eunuch went down into the water, and he baptized him. 39 Now when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught Philip away, so that...

    The "Fall" in Genesis (what does the text of Scripture say?)

    John, I made no reference to a "spiritual death" as you have suggested. But I agree with you that many commentators try to introduce the idea of a spiritual death because they cannot understand why Adam and Eve both did not die physically when they ate of the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge, as...

    The Old Man and The New Man

    And where did you read that pearl of wisdom? It is so perverted in its understanding that what Jesus was teaching in the Parable of the New Wine and the Old Wineskins is completely missed. From memory, you are a "New Covenant" person, but the covenant that Jesus came to update was the covenant...

    my heart is broken

    May the Lord God continue to draw you into His loving embrace and give you the assurance that His Love for you will protect you through all that is unfolding around you and will keep, your relationship with him, safe

    Malachi and Elijah

    True, but you are saying that I am in error with respect to what Keraz is teaching. He is reading Ezekiel 34:11-16 as a literal passage whereas I am suggesting that we have to consider the metaphorical and poetic imagery being presented in the passage to come to an understanding of what God's...

    The "Fall" in Genesis (what does the text of Scripture say?)

    In 2:17 God is introducing the concept of the dangers of the "Second Death." Originally in Genesis, even the Heathens understood that the second death was a reality for them. Today within the Christian understanding, because of the so called "technical translations" used in our English...

    CLEAR CHALLENGES TO THE TRINITY DOCTRINE (A)

    Thank you Lord :rolleyes: Where is the video of the Hallelujah Chorus when you need it. LOL

    ‘Renewed’ after the image of him who created him...

    Another pointless response. Have you tried out for the TV Game show of that same name, "Pointless."

    Christian Forums....Why did you join?

    What is on display when you post? @Helen made some suggestions that your style of posting was not effective. I know that I offend some people. I also know that some people like what I post. The rest of the members are often off in their own world of fantasy and cannot understand what it is...

    A tit for tat response on your part. I do not claim to be the better person. But I do know when a snow jobs is being done.

    Malachi and Elijah

    @Joseph77, If you are throwing your hat into the ring to support Keraz with your like, then you are endorsing a false teacher. @Keraz, your accusation that I have not presented any proofs for you, is a false accusation, as well you know. You have chosen to dismiss my proofs even though you...

    The Old Man and The New Man

    Mark, you are saying that unless I become a completely "Brand New" person, then I cannot receive the "new, freshly pressed wine." This thinking invalidates many Christians today as we are refreshed to become like Him, not made again brand new like Him. Do a search for the Greek words based on...
