    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    All of your "thinking" in the above, is derived through your "natural man/mind", and NOT what the Spirit is meaning in what is said/written. Ananlytical and logical thinking by our natural man, is NOT the way of Christ's understanding.

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    Correct! ONly Jesus was/is the first resurrection unto NEW Life? Now, if you have been born again of His Holy Spirit, what did God give to you? Ans. His Holy Spirit, which is a portion of His "divine nature", making you therefore a "partaker of the divine nature" of His Being. 2 Peter 1:4...

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    1 John 4:[18] There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. A surmised pending judgment by Christ against a born again Christian, after physical death IS "TORMENT". So, if there is fear in your heart of...

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    If you are NOW "a partaker of the divine nature", then you are a participant in Christ's Resurrection, and been given the Gift of eternal life, through His Spirit, which is the token of His promise that we shall be bodily changed/resurrected into His likeness of Immortality.

    Gen 9 [27] And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: > Your understanding of God's "judgment" is contrary to NT scripture. The judgment that was "appointed" to Adam and all descendants, was to DIE ONCE, but after this, God's Judgment unto Eternal Life, was to...

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    God's judgment through Adam, and all who are in him, is death (condemned already). God's judgment through Christ, and all who are in Him by faith, is Life (not condemned).

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    You were judged as "not condemned" because of your faith in Jesus! KJV- John 3:18. When you came to Jesus for the forgiveness of sin and to receive the gift of the Holy Spirit, THAT IS when you "appeared before the judgment seat of Christ".

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    You only spoke on the first part of what the world of the unsaved hope for in this life. You neglected to comment on the latter part: "then sudden destruction, and they shall not escape." So when the Lord returns in flaming fire, all the saints shall be changed/resurrected from off this then...

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    If you have to ask that question, then you don't hear or know what John 3:18 is saying.

    Thanks for sharing your understanding. However, as lengthy as it is, I will not be commenting or contesting anything of what your indoctrinated teaching has assembled. Clearly, you are convinced in what you believe, and therefore have no desire to hear "the simplicity that is in Christ". 2...

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    To Taken: Have you already appeared before the judgment seat of Christ? If you believe in Jesus as your only Savior, and have received Him into your life, Then yes, you have already appeared before Him! 2 Cor. 5[4] For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we...

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    You are absolutely correct in your quote: 1 Thes 5: [9] For God hath not appointed us to wrath... > YES! ...that is true, concerning God's wrath! The unsaved shall experience His wrath. However, since the Great Comission of our Lord after Pentecost, the church has been experiencing satan's...

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    Thats too bad that you ignore my references in the Book of Daniel. It speaks clearly and contrary to a fictitious 7 year "THE Great Tribulation" . I guess you accept that ignorance is bliss.

    Ooops! Sorry EG, I thought "Taken" said "Good" . I was expecting his reply. EB

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    Good? How can what I said about the time "of great tribulation", being a thousand years, be "good" to you, when you are saying it is only 7 years? Clearly, one view is error. And for correction, one must go back to Daniel 9:24-27, and listen to what the Spirit is saying, and not the popular...

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    Apparently you do not comprehend Daniel 9:24-27. My answer is: "A thousand years". The beginning of great tribulation-70AD: Matthew 24[2] And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things [the temple]? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall...

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    I didn't see you follow through with your conclusion! If you are a partaker of the divine nature, aren't you now taking part in the first resurrection?

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    Why should I share what you cannot see, though I have held you by the hand with so many clues! However, I am trying to help you to discover it for yourself! Last clue: there are two separate persons being spoken of in Daniel 9:24-27. Specifically in vs. 26. Can you reveal who they are? Now...

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    But NONE were ever resurrected unto NEW Life. Only Christ was/is the firstborn from the dead. Therefore, He Himself IS "the first resurrection". "Blessed and holy is he, that hath part in THE first resurrection, the second death hath NO power. Q. Are you NOW a "partaker of the divine nature"...
