The Scripture speaks of a first resurrection that man must have part of to overcome the second death. The first resurrection is what man must have part of in TIME while he/she lives on this earth. The first resurrection is spiritual when we are made spiritually alive through the Spirit of...

What you fail to understand is that there cannot be contradictions found in Scripture. The Word is clear all mortal men are appointed to die once before the Judgment. You can spin this FACT any way you wish, but that does not mean that mortal men still physically alive when Christ comes the...

Which is why He must take away our mortal flesh and put on believers immortal and incorruptible bodies so that believers shall be like Him. Just as Christ overcame physical death by His bodily resurrection, to never die again, so too He rids believers of bodies of death, replacing them with...

When you are no longer locked in unbelief and stop trying to force the Bible to support unbiblical doctrines then maybe God will grant you knowledge of truth.

Yes, and as I quoted the Scripture DEATH is swallowed up in victory when the mortal, corruptible body has been raised up and changed to immortal and incorruptible when the last trump sounds. Until this mortal is given immortal and incorruptible bodies he/she is still destined to death. We...

Yes, I agree. Every believer still alive when the Lord returns the second time will in the twinkling of an eye be changed from mortal, corruptible bodies of death to immortal, incorruptible bodies fit for eternity on the new earth. It is in this manner that death is swallowed up in victory...

I fear you are still struggling with unbelief? Very sad!

Is this what you are struggling with, and why you must insert unbiblical opinion into God's Word? Pray that God might help you in your unbelief!

Every human is born in sin with a mortal, corruptible body destined from the fall to die. The promise is not that some will NEVER physically die, but that those who die in Christ will NEVER die the second death which is the lake of fire. Believers who are alive when Christ comes again will be...

I'm glad we have much agreement, always enjoy our discussions Marty.

That's my point Marty. The end of time for this world does not mean Christ and we with Him will cease to reign forever.

We shall not all die before Christ returns the second time. Some believers shall not die before He comes again. But all believers shall be changed from mortal to immortal and corruptible to incorruptible at His coming when the last trumpet sounds. We shall not all die, but we shall all be...

Marty, Paul is not saying our reigning with the Lord will end. Just as Christ shall reign forever and ever, so too we who are in Him shall reign forever and ever with Him upon the earth that shall be made new again. 1 Corinthians 15:25-26 (KJV) For he must reign, till he hath put all...

It means that some believers will still be alive on this earth when the Lord returns the second time.

Read it in context! Paul takes great pains to explain what has become of believers who have already physically died before the second coming of Christ. In Christ they were sown a natural body and raised a spiritual body (1Cor 15:44). They are the spiritual bodies that will return with the...

We shall not all sleep (die) before He comes again. Some, unlike those believers who have already physically died will still be physically alive at His second coming. Paul doesn't say they will never die, but that they too, like those who have already died, will be changed from mortal (bodies...

This verse is not saying we shall never die as you assume. Paul is telling us there will be some believers still alive when our Lord comes again. IOW there will still be believers alive upon the earth when our Lord returns the second time. NOWHERE does Scripture say some mortal believers will...

To be absent from our mortal body means we must physically die! But you say those alive at His coming will not die?

Chapter and verse please?

As it is plain in the following translations, none of them say "we shall not sleep (die/death)", that is you reading your opinion into the text. The verse says, all who are alive at His coming will be changed. It says nothing about how this change will come about, or whether our old body...
