    Is your faith your own? - Is "the Faith" prescribed by a human institution?

    Listen St.Steven You have a wonderful truth in your heart and that is that ALL will be saved. Never let that go. You are the one that is beheaded. Any time that someone (usually "Christians") shut you up to the teaching that Christ will save all, they are beheading you. Jesus Christ will...

    Is your faith your own? - Is "the Faith" prescribed by a human institution?

    Christ spoke to everyone in parables and proverbs yet you seem to think he spoke clearly. Even when he explained parables to his disciples he still didn’t speak plainly. All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them: (Mat13:34 ) Is...

    This is something you said to St.Steven. “[H]ighly sybolic?” If I had to guess I’d say 99% symbolic. Why is that? Because it is the revealing of Jesus Christ. And that is how Jesus Christ speaks. And Jesus Christ does not change: Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever (for...

    How do you know I "explain[ed] it away without dealing with it, and then move[d] on to what think is true" when you say: I don't think you're being honest.

    Well, I can see what you're teaching, which is just not true. Why would you take that literally? I think you would do well to understand that that when Jesus spoke, it was very rare that his words had literal meaning. And that holds true for Jn 5:28-29 No. Christ and his elect will reign for an...

    Ok, by your thumbs up I'm guessing you agree. We both believe that David is dead and in the grave to this day yes? I do. What say you?

    Fair enough f2f, maybe I'm not being clear enough. Oddly enough, I think you and I agree on quite a few things so rather than reply to your whole post let's get the things we agree on out of the way. No I do not. What say you?

    Is your faith your own? - Is "the Faith" prescribed by a human institution?

    F2F, you say out of one side of your mouth: Yet, out of the other side you mouth you say: That is theological double-talk. What you are really saying is that “flesh and blood CAN inherit the Kingdom of God or stand in His presence.” 1 Cor 15:46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual...

    Is your faith your own? - Is "the Faith" prescribed by a human institution?

    No, why would I doubt that? God raised Jesus. It is the spirit that quickeneth; the FLESH PROFITETH NOTHING: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. A little careful reading tells us the FLESH PROFITETH NOTHING, not even resurrection. Christ certainly was raised...

    You don't think our physical bodies rise from the dead do you? If so, maybe you need to reread 1 cor 15.

    Is your faith your own? - Is "the Faith" prescribed by a human institution?

    I'm not saying that at all. What I am saying is that Christ IS the Resurrection. When the dead are TRULY resurrected they are CHRIST and Christ and his Father are one and we are to be one. The Elect are the first to be resurrected and they become kings and priests over those who are damned...

    Resurrection is not a "What" it's a "Who" Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: (John 11:25) Once you see that you can put it all together: With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit...

    That is correct! And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona (St.SeVen): for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. (Matthew 16:17) God Bless!.

    Does Christian Universalism deny the justice of God?

    This is justice: And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation. (John 5:29) Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall...

    Why Hell is not a place of eternal conscious torment.

    So true. Christ is the Sabbath. Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you REST. (Mat 11:28) For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath CEASED FROM HIS OWN WORKS, as God did from his. Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall...

    Continuing from post 419 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are FOOLISHNESS unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. (1 Cor 2:14) We can all read scripture, and we can all offer opinions on what it means, but unless...
