Wait what about ,"Firstborn from the dead” (Colossians 1:18) Read the context. "Firstborn from the dead" (πρωτοτοκος εκ των νεκρων) deals with "preeminence" (πρωτευων ), not in time or space, as the text does not say "first to be resurrected from the dead". I can show examples of firstborn...

Was what Peter, James and John saw on the Mount of Transfiguration was just a “vision”? 'Vision'? "οραμα" Simply means that which is seen, which can be by the eyes or with the mind/heart, and thus with the eye of the mind. For instance: Act 7:31 When Moses saw it, he wondered at the sight: and...

What about Hebrews 11, Enoch died, and “these all died”? Actually, contextually, No. Paul in saying, that "these all died" refer to those he specifically says died (such as Hebrews 11:4, "being yet dead"), and the immediate context of vs 12, whom the pronoun "these" refer back to, as being...

Enoch went to Heaven (3rd), for God (Jesus) took him, and he was no longer found on earth. Scripture cannot be broken (John 10:35). Therefore since Genesis 5:24 and Hebrews 11:5 say that Enoch was "translated" so that "he should not see (experience) death", and he "walked with God" and "he was...

The statment incorrect, and only your opinion. However, the scripture is clear on the matter that Enoch, Elijah and Moses all entered Heaven before Jesus was resurrected from the grave. Cases of Translation (Taken alive without experiencing death) in Scripture to consider: OT...

And? Matthew reported something not true? Every other event is a natural (literal) event in the context. He reported what he knew (by inspiration of the Holy Spirit/Ghost), and in fulfillment of prophecy, such as Isaiah 26:19, just as Paul repeats in Ephesians 4:8; 1 Corinthians 15:20,23...

They were taken back to Heaven, with Jesus, in his ascension. Psalms 24, 1 Corinthians 15; Ephesians 4:8, and previously connecting verses. It is a type of the resurrections to come. The "captivity" were those in the bonds of death (grave). He led "captivity" "captive" (taken back with Him).

Here: Mat 27:50 Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost. Mat 27:51 And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; Mat 27:52 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the...

The part in brackets is your a priori opinion and bias, not the statement of any scripture, nor the statement of W&D (that I am aware of). The very subject 'Is Michael the archangel = the Son (aka Jesus)' can be discussed without ever broaching the topic of created or uncreated. The two...

Yeah, they have that already, and they do (ban). They also have a very strict entry questionaire that I twice tried to penetrate, but could not, as it basically requires a phone call to the local Hall and elder to check your actual membership status.

So? Act_17:17 Therefore disputed he in the synagogue with the Jews, and with the devout persons, and in the market daily with them that met with him. Act_18:28 For he mightily convinced the Jews, and that publickly, shewing by the scriptures that Jesus was Christ. Act_19:9 But when divers...

I personally don't care about that (no offense though if you think differently). I base my judgment upon what the individual says at present during the conversation, rather than on their denominational 't-shirt' or 'standard flag'. I think identifying persons belief system is as much a...

I have not confused anything at this point, but asked clarifying questions based upon your own personal replies. Therefore, if I may ask, politely, with charity, and with respect to your response, that I (personally) may not be included in the "we are confusing". Yes, I agree that "opinion"...

I am not worried about what others think is a sensitive topic, though I do take into consideration others feelings, ultimately truth matters inspite of feelings, as for instance 2+2=4 inspite of how others might disagree, or feel strongly opposed to it. I even placed this thread in the...

This response came in reply to, "The Bible (KJB) is truth, not because I believe it to be so, nor because I say so, but because it is so. This may be demonstated in truth." So, do you believe that the KJB (King James Bible) is "truth", or are you simply saying that what you believe the "Bible"...

By your statments, Are you making a distinction between "Christendom" and "Christianity", or are you saying you do not identify as a "Christian"? By saying you are "one who has come out of Christendom" are not saying that you are come out of "Christianity", are you? Just two clarifying...

Ok, but an "opnion" or even "what I [Aunty Jane] post is my biblical opinion" is stil just a personal "opinion" isn't it? I understand that "not all the posters or readers here agree with each other on their "biblical "opinions"". However, my question was to you specifically, not to others...

Waste of time. People have been saying for the last 200 years that they are 'updating the old language of the KJV'. There are several problems with this. There have been over hundreds of (so called Bible) 'updates' in that time. Language doesn't change that quickly. So it's a lie, and a...

@Aunty Jane - A thread to discuss, with you specifically, a few things, if you will indulge a little time with me. Thank you. I would like to begin with your signature bylines. [1] "What I post is my opinion only." [2] "I love a good Bible discussion. ;)" If [1] is true (by your...
