Ah, but was it to prevent mankind from having access to the tree, or to preserve the tree, a sign that God planned a way for mankind to once again have access to eternal life? As Barnes Notes says: God does not annihilate the garden or its tree of life. Annihilation does not seem to be his...

Ecclesiastes 3:18-21 WEB (18) I said in my heart, “As for the sons of men, God tests them, so that they may see that they themselves are like animals. (19) For that which happens to the sons of men happens to animals. Even one thing happens to them. As the one dies, so the other dies. Yes...

Jesus died to pay the redemption price for humans. There is no mention in the Bible of anyone dying to buy back the life rights of anmials, nor of a future resurrection of animals. Christians have a future life as spirit beings living in heaven. No physical, flesh and bones animal can live in...

I don't. This is supposed to be a Bible study forum!

Again you didn't read my post carefully/studiously enough - how about Isaiah 53:5-6 WEB? (5) But he was pierced for our transgressions. He was crushed for our iniquities. The punishment that brought our peace was on him; and by his wounds we are healed. (6) All we like sheep have gone astray...

I see no reason to disagree with Google AI Overview, which says: The New Testament books were written between approximately 48–120 AD, not in their canonical order. Generally, Paul’s letters were written first (48–60s AD), followed by the Gospels (65–90s AD), with letters like Peter and John...

You misquoted the verse, changing what all English translations say, which is "the hope of glory". You wrote "the hope of God", which is incorrect - I could not find a single translation which translates it that way. A quote should be an exact quote; deliberately modifying the Scriptures...

Err, you clearly didn't correctly read what I wrote! I hope you pay better attention when you read the Bible. I don't know what "quote the same verse the same" means, but you didn't provide a verse reference, but there is only one verse in the Bible which has the phrase "Christ in you", which...

That is a misquote. It is not "the hope of God", it is, Colossians 1:27 WEB: (27) to whom God was pleased to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory; Colossians 3:4 WEB (4) When Christ, our life, is revealed...

No, I believe only God existed originally, and later God created His Son. God's Son was not immortal, so he was not exactly like God. When God resurrected Jesus, after Jesus had proved himself loyal to God and learned obedience, He gave him immortality, so now Jesus may have identical nature...

God is immortal, which means that it is impossible for him to die or be killed. That means that He can't change His own nature to become a mortal human. He could, like the angels, appear to humans by creating and animating a human body, and then dissolving it away, but that would not be a...

It is impossible for God to die - He is immortal (which means that it is impossible to die; a dictionary definition is 'not liable or subject to death'; Strong's says 'deathlessness') - 1 Timothy 6:13,16 WEB (13) I command you before God, ... (16) who alone has immortality, dwelling in...

No, I am not. I know that eternal torment/torture is a lie. Romans 6:23 WEB (23) For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. You clearly misunderstand and make wrong assumptions. A disctionary says, "speech, writing, etc, displaying...

I have never done that. No I don't. That's more lies from you. How do you know what I have done? Yet more insults. You have still not shown me where, in which posts in this thread, I have written anything that matches your accusations. What have I written that diminishes "the True God, the...

What have I written that is irrational? Be specific. For example, you wrote "you think the holy Spirit is a third person of a mysteriously three part god", so tell me where I wrote that. I'm 100% sure that I have not written anything in this thread (or any other thread) that implies that...

You're wrong, I don't believe that. You've made the wrong assumption. Stop guessing what I believe or think! Good. I believe that too. Good. I believe that too. You're wrong about that. God's name is YHVH (Yahavah), translated as Yahweh in the WEB: Exodus 3:15 WEB (15) God said...

If you can't support your view with relevant Bible verses, then I will not believe anything you write! Resorting to libel is not showing a correct Christian spirit.

The English Bibles that we have are translations of the original writing's of God's Word. We can't fully trust all translations. Comparing different translations helps us to better understand the true meaning. For example, which is easier to understand - Genesis 25:29: KJV (29) And Jacob...

Despite being in the form of God (a spirit being of high rank, above the angels), he didn't think that he should try to be equal to God, but instead he gave up all he had, his rank, authority and dignity, and in humility became a like a servant (he gave up his form of God and took the form of a...

I had replied to 'amigo de christo' writing: The verses you quote from Revelation 1 do not mention "all them" throwing crowns at Jesus' feet. It just says that John fell at Jesus' feet. Revelation 1 is therefore unrelated to what he wrote!
