    Understanding "THE MAN OF SIN IS REVEALED" passage.

    Christ is not saying our resurrected body will be a spiritual body. If that were true, we would not be physical, because that which is spirit is not physical. When John writes "we shall be like Him" he does not mean we will be spiritual body. If we read the verse in context, we find that John...

    What JESUS Taught Us At The Last Supper = John 13;3-5

    Matthew 11:11 (KJV) Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. Not sure what you mean? I'm not sure you're rightly understanding the verse because...

    Last day prophecies fulfilled

    Adam was created in the likeness and image of God, but that which is created by God can never become the Creator Bob. The difference between being created human, and He who is the only begotten of God, is that the Son, like His Father has always existed. That's why John calls Christ the Word...

    Understanding "THE MAN OF SIN IS REVEALED" passage.

    Sorry Randy, you say this is your position and it should make sense to me, but it doesn't. You do realize that which gives life to the body is the spirit in man, but it is not the body of man? It is the spirit, or the essence of life the human spirit is that has a spiritual association with...

    Understanding "THE MAN OF SIN IS REVEALED" passage.

    Yes, eternal existence is one thing, but eternal life is only for believers, because I don't view being in a state of eternal dying as life. Randy, my reply was to what you said in the third paragraph of reply #50 - "Eternal Life, for me, is the gift of eternal fellowship with God, an eternal...

    Another Premillennial absurdity

    A, An - the indefinite article. "A" and "an" are called the indefinite articles. They define their noun as something unspecific (e.g., something generic, something mentioned for the first time). The - would be the definite article. "The" is called the definite article. It defines its noun as...

    Another Premillennial absurdity

    A thousand years, not 1,000 years, equates to TIME. Time that began with the first advent of Christ, and time that shall be no more when the seventh angel begins to sound. It is foolish to believe there will be another 1,000 years of time after knowing that TIME which a thousand years is...

    Another Premillennial absurdity

    We shall all stand before the judgment throne of Christ. Romans 14:10-12 (KJV) But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me...

    What JESUS Taught Us At The Last Supper = John 13;3-5

    Bob, would you mind explaining what exactly you meant by this statement?

    What JESUS Taught Us At The Last Supper = John 13;3-5

    When Christ died, He committed His spirit to His Father in heaven. What does that mean Bob, if it does not show Jesus' life through His living spirit being placed alongside the Father in heaven, His life after physical death being preserved by Him? Does this not indicate being spiritually...

    Understanding "THE MAN OF SIN IS REVEALED" passage.

    Again, that makes no sense! Believers will NEVER become physical "spirit bodies". We are physical bodies with a spirit that came from God, and the two together make us living souls. In the resurrection of our physical bodies, we will still be physical bodies with a spirit that gives our body...

    Understanding "THE MAN OF SIN IS REVEALED" passage.

    Eternal life for believers and unbelievers alike? I guess you must ask and answer, where this eternal life be spent?

    Understanding "THE MAN OF SIN IS REVEALED" passage.

    It is the Spirit Who gives life, because the flesh profits nothing! The Spirit of Christ gives eternal life to all who believe Christ through His presence within us. Every human spirit returns to God Who gave it, but is every spirit from every human that returns to God at physical death with...

    What JESUS Taught Us At The Last Supper = John 13;3-5

    The contrasting proves the significance of the cross and resurrection of Christ (Gospel) to every nation of the earth Bob. The 144,000 from all the tribes of the faithful children of Israel is the remnant from the Old Covenant nation. The innumerable multitude are the faithful from ALL...

    Last day prophecies fulfilled

    There will be survivors from this age when the Lord comes again. They will be all of the elect the angels will gather together from the four winds of the earth, and heaven when they see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. They will be the innumerable...

    Understanding "THE MAN OF SIN IS REVEALED" passage.

    Exactly. And verse 10 follows "And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved."

    Last day prophecies fulfilled

    I think you meant to say like other Amils? The answer is yes I do indeed believe Scripture informs us that Christ bound the power Satan possessed, when he held all men in bondage to fear of death. But by His cross, and resurrection Satan's power was greatly diminished. Since Christ defeated...

    Understanding "THE MAN OF SIN IS REVEALED" passage.

    I'm not making an assumption. Yes, a living soul is what the physical body, and spirit in man is called. Our body cannot continue to have life without our spirit. But our spirit, IF we have been born again of the Spirit, shall never die even though our body will. Eternal life is only...

    Last day prophecies fulfilled

    Hardly! I am not the one who must change the wording of the text to fit my doctrine. What cannot be found anywhere in Revelation is exactly "ONE" thousand years. There is nothing more disingenuous than someone who thinks he knows what he doesn't know! A thousand - Strong's Greek Dictionary...
