    Ezekiel Chapters 47-48 Is The Eternal Kingdom, Dont Be Deceived

    Actually from the time Jesus returns and sets foot on Mount olive, his reign will be forever from David’s throne in Jerusalem. The millennium isn’t a temporary thousand year reign of Jesus, the millennium is only that part of the eternal reign of Jesus where Satan is bound for a thousand years...

    Refuting soul sleep, aka dirt nap doctrine

    So are you seriously trying to make belief or rejection iof soul sleep a salvational issue? That’s a ridiculous assertion. Actually those who keep the ended old covenant for their righteousness have a bad shock coming.

    Refuting soul sleep, aka dirt nap doctrine

    Out of context, it means what it says, Satan blinds the eyes of unbelievers, not of believers, per Jesus in Luke: Luk 8:11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God. Luk 8:12 Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their...

    OSAS.... what does this really mean ?

    How to be unsaved is found in every warning by Paul to the brethren that lining sinfully will keep them from heaven. Paul warned the brethren in 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 that living a lifestyle stealing, of drunkenness or adultery, etc, will keep them out of heaven. In that passage, Paul warns...

    OSAS.... what does this really mean ?

    There’s literally a books worth of scripture refuting unconditional eternal security. Jesus Himself said some believe only for a while, then fall away. Hebrews 3 warns against the brethren hardening their hearts due to the deceitfulness of sin and DEPARTING FROM the living God. Jesus taught...

    Late Night Thread...

    While you’re at it, figure out how it is that a photon has no mass, but magnetic waves and gravity can affect it and bend light, or in the case of black holes super gravity, be stopped completely.

    Refuting soul sleep, aka dirt nap doctrine

    If the soul was breath then the soul doesn’t sleep in the dirt, and the warming about gaining the world and losing your soul is nonsense, because that means everyone who dies loses their soul. Also it’s nonsense to say that breath is destroyed in hell, if breath is the soul. Let’s plug your...

    Refuting soul sleep, aka dirt nap doctrine

    Yes, scripture truth makes one closed minded to false doctrine. No one will live in heaven in the future. God dwells forever on the new earth, and at His return, Jesus sets up His everlasting kingdom on earth, forever, ruling from Jerusalem on the throne of David. per tons of old and New...

    How do you think Christians should interact with Mormons?

    You don’t know what you’re talking about. God always has law, as I’ve made absolutely clear in past posts, but today it’s NOT the law of Moses, but the law of love which completely fulfills the essence of Gods law, aka the law of Christ, and the royal law, and this law is summed up in the two...

    Refuting soul sleep, aka dirt nap doctrine

    It would be extremely redundant to say that as Rachel was dying her life was departing - it wasn’t her life that was departing as her life was ending, but her soul. The whole council of scripture refutes dirt nap doctrine - especially 2 Corinthians 5 which is irrefutable that our body is only...

    Do you think "Near-Death Experiences" (NDEs) are valid or not? What should Christians make of them?

    The little boy who died and went to heaven, who came back having met his sister who died in her mother’s womb due to miscarriage, which Colton Burpo was never told about, nor did the family talk about, is very interesting. He also met his grandfather in heaven , who died before he was born, and...

    Do you think "Near-Death Experiences" (NDEs) are valid or not? What should Christians make of them?

    So those who went to hell when they died before resuscitation, were also deceived by Satan? That would be a very dumb thing for Satan to do - give a false and lying experience of leaving the body and going to hell - since those people thereafter warn people that there’s a real hell to shun, so...

    Refuting soul sleep, aka dirt nap doctrine

    That’s not so at all. Scripture clearly says we are made of body, soul, and spirit, and Jesus said body AND soul are destroyed in hell, leaving the eternal spirit, which cannot be destroyed, which is what is thrown into the lake of fire Spirit does not mean breath, if it does then God who is...

    Refuting soul sleep, aka dirt nap doctrine

    A parable compares one thing to another as a teaching tool - the kingdom of Heaven (one thing) is like a farmer planting a crop (another thing) - parables are also vague and not specific - names are not mentioned because parables are not literal accounts of real people. The account of the rich...

    Refuting soul sleep, aka dirt nap doctrine

    Since the doctrine claims the soul sleeps with the body in the ground, and since last I checked the ground is made of dirt, then dirt nap doctrine is an appropriate and accurate description of it.

    Do you think "Near-Death Experiences" (NDEs) are valid or not? What should Christians make of them?

    That’s a tautology- circular reasoning - to state thatvnear death experiences only happen to those facing death. Of course that’s true. You obviously couldn’t have a near death experience until you died and then got resuscitated.

    Do you think "Near-Death Experiences" (NDEs) are valid or not? What should Christians make of them?

    There’s too much documentation today after decades of research, of people hearing conversations in other rooms and floors, and of accurately describing things they couldn’t possibly have seen from their bed or operating table, so the hallucination theory and active brain after death theory has...

    Do you think "Near-Death Experiences" (NDEs) are valid or not? What should Christians make of them?

    Today they have accumulated and documented examples of NDEs where the person saw and heard things and conversations they couldn’t possibly have seen or heard from their bed or operating table, so it’s evident they did leave their body while dead. Of course soul sleep adherents deny such a thing...

    Refuting soul sleep, aka dirt nap doctrine

    Our breath doesn’t return to God, sorry. The whole council of scripture refutes soul sleep. When Paul says our body is a home we live in until death, when we become absent from the body and be present with the Lord, it’s not our breath he’s talking about. When Stephen looked into heaven as he...

    Tongues

    Since Pentecost, receiving the Holy Spirit baptism for speaking in tongues, requires an already spirit filled believer to lay hands on them. Act 8:17 Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost. Act 8:18 And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles'...
