If that were true, there would be no more tears, no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying, no more pain, for the former things (these things belonging to this world before all is made new again) are passed away. If you desire to know the truth, separate yourself from JW's cult. As long as you...

Behold, even after we have been saved we struggle to overcome things of this world, as well as things of the flesh, and we will until we are resurrected to immortality and incorruptible. Yes, we have the mind of Christ that we are warned to be renewing daily, but we also have the mind that we...

Romans 7:14-25 (KJV) For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I. If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good. Now then it is no more I that...

I understand the point you're making, but you cannot deny there is a struggle going on in our (believers) mind between the Spirit of Christ in us, and the carnal fleshly mind that we will always have with us until we breath our last. With this I agree! When we focus on the things of this...

Luke 12:4 (KJV) And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do. John 15:13-14 (KJV) Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you...

How does knowing we have been made free from sin keep us from choosing sometimes to sin? While I agree when we have His Spirit in us we have the ability to walk by the Spirit and not by the flesh, but how, while still clothed in bodies of mortal, and corruptible flesh can we be perfectly...

All who receive the gift of eternal life will also receive immortal bodies to reside with Christ forever on the NEW EARTH. Context gives more clarity for both Ps 37:29 and Rev 21:3-4. Revelation 21:1-4 (KJV) And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth...

Your understanding and speaking from Pentecost forward, so what your saying is partially true. One must be born again of the Spirit, and without this new birth that comes according to grace through faith in Christ Old Covenant saints, such as Ezekiel could not be saved. But what you're leaving...

Yes, which is why I believe we should seek to understand biblical doctrine instead of church doctrine. That doesn't mean I am against every doctrine taught by churches, because not all taught in churches is false.

Yes, there really is a fine line between being deceived and becoming the deceiver! While its possible for any man to be deceived, once one realizes they have been deceived, but continue in the deception because they learned it from someone they respected or believe the deception because that...

The Gospel proclaimed in the power of the Spirit is ETERNAL LIFE to whosoever believes. This means that we should look at physical death in the same way Isaac did when he was called to give his son a sacrifice unto God. Isaac obeyed God remembering the promise that through his son the Seed...

And what Josephus or any unbeliever believes matters because?

The problem you have that is keeping you from understanding how whosoever lives and believes shall NEVER die, is that your focus is only on the physical part of man. You have no understanding of how man is only physically alive through spirit. That is the breath of life every man is born with...

Resurrection comes after one dies. That's why in life man must have part in Christ's resurrection to have eternal spiritual life through His Spirit in us. Only those who have partaken of the resurrection life of Christ before they die, will ascend to heaven a spiritual body (living soul) after...

Yes, Lazarus is now physically dead, because all are ordained to die PHYSICALLY! So why did Christ add, "AND, whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?" Why would Christ say this knowing full well that Lazarus was resurrected mortal and corruptible, and that...

No resurrection does not come before life. Having eternal spiritual life when we are born again of His Spirit does not mean we have been resurrected. It means we have partaken of Christ, who is the first resurrection from the dead to never die again. It is by partaking of Christ's...

No, Martha was not correct! Lazarus didn't have to wait for the resurrection that shall be on the last day! He was physically resurrected THAT same day Christ spoke these words to Martha. Since Lazarus physically died again believing in Christ, he shall also be physically resurrected immortal...

In the following passage we find Martha saying to Christ "I know that he shall live again in the resurrection at the last day". Instead of affirming that Martha had spoken truth, Christ tells her "I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he...

Of course He isn't! The Holy Spirit in us gives eternal spiritual life of our new nature, not the natural spiritual nature man is born with. Because natural man was dead in trespasses and sins. That's why man must be made alive (quickened) by the Spirit, to know and enter the Kingdom of God...

face2face With all your bloviating and long-winded replies I see you still have no answer for why Christ says, "And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?" You appear to not be able to differentiate between the spirit (breath of life) God gives to every...
