I guess I just like 'functioning of the brain' for a catch all. Personally I don't think that the brain/soul can live 'independantly' outside the body. I do 'think' that the spirit can. In the occultic practice astral projection, something is claimed biblically. That being the silver cord...

Do you believe in predestination? Two words suffice.....DOUBTING Thomas. Did he or the twelve 'choose Jesus' or did Jesus FIRST choose them? Did Thomas have Faith to believe in the risen Lord Jesus, or did he have to SEE to believe? Yes, he did! ROM 14:11 for it is written, "As I live...

I've seen Steven do that for a long time. But just never asked. Good question. IMO. :Happy:

Not 'just' the consciousness. Your brain's MIND makes the body function....whether conscious, SUB-conscious or UN-conscious. Your brain's WILL determines 'I will, I won't, I can, I can't. Your brain's EMOTIONS will be a product of whatever you are feeding your SOUL with. If it's LUST OF THE...

In the beginning there was only 'the church'. It was 'the church', for all of the apostle's lives. The first use of the term "Catholic Church" (literally meaning "universal church") was by the church father Saint Ignatius of Antioch in his Letter to the Smyrnaeans (circa 110 AD). AFTER all...

I define the spirit as the source for the 'animating' 'zoe' life of the triune human being. I define the soul as the source for the 'motivational' 'zao' life of the triune human being. The 'animating' life, of the body, to be moving and functionally alive flesh, comes from the spirit. The...

I disagree. What you call "life force", is the 'power' which 'a spirit' emits or gives out of itself. It's what Jesus felt flow out of Him to heal the woman with the issue of blood. 1411 dunamis: force (lit. or fig.); spec. miraculous power (usually by implication a miracle itself) MAR 5:30...

The truth is, you now know me better than you did. And now, I hope you know a little better, the difference between COCKINESS and CONFIDENCE. :hmhehm I never asked for "bible Scripture to support 'flesh and spirit' were two different objects." I asked you to prove with BIBLE that SPIRIT...

You obviously don't know me, or you would know that I know the bible. And your condescending comment doesn't support you, it reveals you IMO, but time will certainly tell. :Broadly: As to YOUR OPINION above, where is scripture to support your OPINION? And if you say sprit can't change to...

A Good answer. IMO. In the same way, you appear to not know 'In the beginning was the WORD/SPIRIT which became FLESH /BODY. If I said In the beginning was and ORANGE and the ORANGE became a CARROT. Does it make sense to you ,for me to say; Therefore a CARROT IS AN ORANGE? What is correct...

Your assessment is just as true for 'me concerning you' as it for 'you concerning me'. And yet you are here interacting with all 'those' that you do. 'Those' who are just as unyielding, for the same reason IMO, that you say I have. But you keep debating them. That just seems inconsistent...

Got to admit Aunty, I was truly expecting you to respond to this last post. Maybe not in the same length as I did, but nothing at all? But it has been almost a month, so just wanted to check in for some kind of reasoning as to your going quiet.

Right, and that's what I believed also. I went over as the red blooded, true blue, kill the commies American kid. 6 months over there and I got enough 'OJT' training to change my mind. How ironic, my dad was also in the ''Battle of the bulge." And he didn't have it so good. In a freezing...

Good, good analogy SteVen. That's why more Viet Nam veterans died of suicide after coming back to the USA than ever died in the whole Viet Nam war. I saw, participated and knew about so many illegal things that it made me hate the government of the United States.....though I DID, and STILL do...

I suppose it is much more than just "two types of Christians". But me saying "milk toast vs Perfect" was really just as true as saying 'the two extremes of Christianity plus everyone who was in between'. As for your "two types of salvation" comment; I personally believe that here is actually 3...

Thank you for the defending word brother. :Thumbsup: If only he knew about a guy who argued with me for at least a year or more, on another Christian Forum concerning UR. But that brother argued WITH GOOD QUESTIONS and an attitude to follow the truth....no matter where it led......instead of...

Sorry, missed being notified. Jesus isn't coming back for all the milk toast, pew warming "Christians". He is coming back for the "overcomers" of every church represented in the Revelation. And he is coming back for His "bride that is without spot or wrinkle". or PERFECT. Those will be seated...

YOUR OPINION. I can't go to the throne and say YOU said. ONE verse is all I'm asking for that says what you just 'said'. I never said you did. I asked WHAT CHURCH do you go to. And we'll find one of your hotshots confirm that they believe MOST are headed to ETERNAL HELL. I'll make it...

I'm sorry what you just said doesn't even make sense. :My2c: I believe that's what we're telling you. Suffering for ETERNITY in HELL is a HELL of a lot worse than spending your time "apart from Him". If you can't 'see that'. maybe you just don't have "eyes to see" OR "ears to hear" what we...

The Word became a human flesh body and that body is the only thing that died. What church do you go to that teaches most of God's created human population isn't going to end up in ETERNAL HELL???? Not a scripture in the whole book that says that. And on the cross Jesus SENT His spirit to the...
