CONTINUED FROM THE PREVIOUS POST... When Christ “appeared” to the Apostles, they could only see Him “in the flesh” (literally and spiritually). It was at that time when the Apostles received the Early Rain of the Spirit and made a confession of faith (John 6:67-69). We can know this is when...

Dear Ronald Nolette, There really isn't any reason for me to respond to your comments. For some reason, you are having a lot of trouble understanding what I have presented. But before I move onto another thread, I want to give you a more detailed presentation on my earlier comments on 1John...

Dear Ronald Nolette, You said: Well see that is your problem. You make receiving the Holy spirit ans the early and latter rain verses. according tpo you a believer can be saved without rewceiving the Holy spirit and that is biblically wrong! I have never said that a person can be saved without...

Dear Ronald Nolette, You said: Every believer, the moment they receive the death and resurrection of Jesus as the payment of their sins, receives what you call the latter rain or the Baptism of the Spirit. Your statement above is false and can easily be proven to be false by scripture. Also...

Dear Learner, Here is what you said: Matt 25:46, if one limits the time for punishment, based on the Greek Grammar they also limit the time peroid for Life too. Here is the verse again: Mat 25:46 And these shall go away to punishment age-during, but the righteous to life age-during.' The...

Dear Ronald Nolette, There is only ONE correct understanding of scripture. When it is found, it is like finding hidden treasure. To find that treasure, a person must be given "eyes that can see". That ability is only given when a believer receives the Latter Rain. The Latter Rain is the...

Dear Ronald Nolette, Scripture clearly says that Christ (God's Word) teaches the truth in a way that keeps it concealed from all but those who have been given "eyes that can see" and "ears that can hear". Only after Christ gives a person that gift will they be able to find the hidden manna of...

Dear Ronald Nolette, I believe we have had discussions before where I pointed out that Christ says His words are "spirit". Paul says that spirit words carry meanings that are not taught by man's wisdom (1Cor 2:13). In post #29 to The Learner, I explained what the spirit words "heaven" and...

Dear Learner, No, Christ is not talking about the physical heaven and earth. Christ's words are spirit (John 6:63) and they carry meanings that are different than what man's wisdom teaches (1Cor 2:13). In Mat 24:35, Christ is teaching about the same heaven and earth that Peter does in 2Pet...

Dear Ronald Nolette, I thought I would respond to you and present this verse: Mat 24:35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. So what is your understanding of this verse? It clearly says that heaven will pass away. Also, scripture never says that there is an...

Dear Lambano, To answer your question above, there is no singular Greek word that means "eternal". Look at the verse you mentioned: 1Tim 1:17 Now unto the King eternal (aion), immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen. The verse should be translated...

Dear Keiw, Yes, the true church died after the Apostles died. As you stated, 2Thes 2:3 mentions the coming apostasy. Paul also mentions it here: Acts 20:29 For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. 30 Also of your own selves...

Dear VictoryinJesus, Christ teaches that there is a step by step spiritual process that He causes His Elect to travel to be converted. That pathway began in about 62 A.D when Paul wrote this to Timothy: 1Tim 1:16 Howbeit for this cause, I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might...

Dear Titus, I decided to make one more post. All the churches that the Apostles started (100% of them) became apostate shortly after Paul's death. The spirit of anti-Christ came into those churches and devoured them. They should not be called Christian churches any longer. They have accepted...

Dear Titus, I would respond to you again if I thought that it might help you in some way. But you really don't get your understanding of Christ and the Gospel from scripture. All the verses that I have quoted to you have fallen on deaf ears. Also, I am not a Calvinist. I do not associate...

Dear VictoryinJesus, You quoted Gal 4:21-31. Here is what Paul is teaching with the birthing analogy as it applies to the Elect: All mankind is represented by the son (Ishmael) who is birthed by Satan and Hagar. Ishmael is a "type" for a child of the devil. Because mankind is the offspring of...

Dear Titus, You said: In your reality God does the believing for us. Thus God does the work of faith in us. No, Christ changes our heart so that we will believe and have faith in Him. Prov 16:1 The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the tongue, is from the LORD. Christ does...

Dear VictoryinJesus, I didn't mention (but you did point it out) that Numbers 5 leads into the birthing analogy. The birthing analogy is a separate analogy but one could also say that it is a continuation of the marriage analogy. Here is where it is mentioned in Numbers: Num 5:28 And if the...

Dear VictoryinJesus, You asked: Is there any truth to those itching to stone the woman caught in adultery was themselves a part of the whole body of the woman caught in Adultery? Christ teaches his truth by His spiritual language. That language utilizes the Greek and Hebrew languages but it...

Dear VictoryinJesus, Paul says to "compare spiritual things with spiritual" (1Cor 2:13). Christ says that His words are spirit (John 6:63) so His words are "spiritual things". To understand Christ's spiritual words, we must look to see how they are used elsewhere in scripture just as Paul says...
