    What was wrong with Adam and Eve knowing good and evil?

    You would get the knowledge of good and evil if you stopped walking by the spirit and started walking by your senses. There's a bunch of people on here and I mean a whole lot that cannot come to grips with the concept that I walk by the spirit and therefore have no lust. It's outside of their...

    What was wrong with Adam and Eve knowing good and evil?

    The Bible only mentions this once and the book is filled with many different kinds of figures of speech that's the problem. Even today in our culture we use figures like that and nobody gives it a second thought because we all understand our culture. I might say what you are asking me is...

    Was Jesus 'mortal' or 'immortal' ?

    There are many verses indicating that the power and authority Jesus had was given to him by the Father. Jesus Christ would have always had those things that the Scripture says he was “given” if he was the eternal God. Christ was: Given “all authority” Matthew 28:18). Given “a name above every...

    Was Jesus 'mortal' or 'immortal' ?

    I do hold back on that trinity subject. But not because I can't or will not provide much. It's because when I do management locks the post. But let's try a few verses... Peter’s teaching to the Jews on the Day of Pentecost says “God has made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you...

    What was wrong with Adam and Eve knowing good and evil?

    My Bible teachers taught me in my first Bible class that if the Bible does not tell us. Then we do not know. So now we can begin guessing all we want, but we will still not know because the Bible does not tell us. So that's all I'm doing here... guessing that the devil got Eve to walk and live...

    What was wrong with Adam and Eve knowing good and evil?

    Of course I have some reason to think it was spirit they gave back. God told them they would die if they did it. Giving spirit back would have done that. Eating an apple would not have done that. Jesus got the spirit back for us.

    What is your notion of Christian exclusivity?

    Gentiles did not come into the fold. Christians did when the Jews ended.

    Was Jesus 'mortal' or 'immortal' ?

    I provide a lot of Scripture and when I do you call it my opinion.

    What is your notion of Christian exclusivity?

    He was just probably telling the Jews there will be Christians coming into this too.

    Was Jesus 'mortal' or 'immortal' ?

    I tell the truth and you call it brag. Is a doctor bragging when they tell you they are an expert? Should we tell the Doc's they are boastfully expressing pride in themselves because they are professionals in their field? I'm one of the best in the world in the field of understanding who the...

    Was Jesus 'mortal' or 'immortal' ?

    So what you're saying is an expert in a certain field should tell the amateur that they are better and you quote Philippians to prove your point. Try that on the operating table. Tell the Doc's to bring in the less qualified so you can practice Philippians 2:3.

    What was wrong with Adam and Eve knowing good and evil?

    I said I doubt. I did not say anything about extra biblical evidence that I have.
  13. Peterlag

    Was Jesus 'mortal' or 'immortal' ?

    May I have a verse that I spoke about as a babe in Christ? Such a concept is impossible for me which is probably why you will not come up with a verse since I'm one of the most knowledgeable experienced guys in the world on the knowledge of the resurrected Christ.

    What was wrong with Adam and Eve knowing good and evil?

    I would like to comment because you have written this so well. Well enough that I think I learned something from reading it. May I suggest there was nothing eaten? We speak the same even today in our English when we say such a concept is hard to swallow. All I can come up with for the fruit was...

    Was Jesus 'mortal' or 'immortal' ?

    I'm asking how long does it take for a body to decay because someone brought up the point that Jesus must have been God because his body did not decay. And then there's Joseph a wealthy dude who probably spared no bills in burying Jesus based on all the Jews knew from hanging around the...

    Was Jesus 'mortal' or 'immortal' ?

    Do you have a verse that says... The only begotten Son of God was originally in heaven with God until God sent his only begotten Son to mankind?

    Was Jesus 'mortal' or 'immortal' ?

    Very good point by @BARNEY BRIGHT "If Jesus had been immortal before he sacrificed himself it would have been impossible for him to be put to death."

    Was Jesus 'mortal' or 'immortal' ?

    I could not have written the above any better if I wrote it myself.

    Bible was never written to you

    I do not know why we have so many Christians who believe the entire Bible is written directly to them, the Church of God. There is nothing in the Bible to indicate such thinking, and I would like to add nothing could be further from the truth. It's true the Word of God was written for everyone...

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    I don't see God stepping in. Unless you are referring to the end times.
