"Legalist" - a Churchianity word strategically thrown around to deliberate invoke in the minds of many thoughts of courtroom "legal technicality" where a convicted person attempts to escape punishment by placing on the scales of justice obscure, weak, peripheral arguments which are limited to...

To say "lawlessness is rejection of the Gospel" is a true, yet extremely loose definition. When it comes to defining lawlessness, one need go no further than 1 John 3:4 KJV.

Thanks bro. Really means a lot :) I genuinely thought my career was over at the time, but I'm happy to say I'm coming up on 25 years, praise God. God is good all the time and all the time God is good!

Jesus spoke the Ten Commandments at Sinai - that makes them "His" commandments, not just to "follow Paul" and Paul agrees with me, and he says so below" While Paul says the Mosaic law of ceremonies and sacrifices were to "vanish away" and were "nailed to the Cross", didn't Paul say: "Steal no...

A blind man can see that this has everything to do with being saved. Even a fool knows if a person is to be saved, he must first know Him before deciding to follow Him, right or wrong? "He that saith, I know Him, and keepeth not His commandments is a LIAR and the Truth (Jesus is the...

Look, I made this thread to explain why 2 Corinthians 5:8 KJV no support for "Immortal Soul" doctrine. I've shown why the Immortal Soul crowd has been ILLEGITIMATELY been using it as support for years, and that critically examining it as I've done proves they have done so. So, just to turn the...

I'm not a "KJV only" man, my friend! Concerning the NT, I'm a "Textus Receptus" only man - which means ANY BIBLE written before the 20th century (excluding the Latin Vulgate, the Douay-Rheims, and every other writing out of what Luther called "the Roman dunghill of decretals" found in the...

The OT people were saved no differently than we are saved - by grace through faith. The only diff is they in faith looked forward to the Cross, and evidenced that faith by their works, while we in faith look backward to the Cross and evidence our faith by the same, according to 1 John 2:3-4 KJV.

As does yours. So, let's stick to the facts. Considered "best" by who? What you need to understand is that "older" doesn't mean "better", it simply means "old", understand? Say it with me: "older" means nothing more than "older". If you put lipstick on a pig, it's still a pig. The Alexandrian...

All I'm saying is that any text without the context is a PRETEXT which is no help to anyone. In Ecc. 9, "dead know not anything" refers to "dead that are six feet under", not those that are "dead while they liveth" 6 feet above them. Therefore, when Solomon says the dead don't know, see...

That same Christ said when He'd raise up people with their resurrection body: "in the last day"...at the end of time, which immediately follows the time of the end.

The NT Greek MSS "Textus Receptus" correctly includes "who walk not after the flesh" in Romans 8:1 KJV and you wouldn't be asking this question if your NT was based on it. I'd strongly suggest you obtain one, because that filthy "Critical Text" rival has omitted, by comparison with the TR...

Abraham's bosom must be about 5 miles wide to accommodate all the dead saints from history in there! Oh, you mean the "rapture" when Job says "yet in my FLESH I shall see Him" when his "change comes"? When Paul says "we shall be changed" and those who are "mortal shall put on immortality"? No...

When? "In the resurrection". Not a moment sooner. Yes, but will our spiritual bodies be just like theirs? Since ours will "be fashioned like unto His glorious body" and "a spirit hath not flesh and bones as ye see Me have", the answer is a resounding "no". Just as Scripture knows only of two...

My friend, you're making my point for me! ;) The "spiritual body" is the body with which the righteous are raised...in the resurrection...when Jesus will raise us up "in the last day". Only two, friend, only two :)

True...but what about the "dead" in Ecc. 9? The context there cannot but make "dead" refer to being "literally dead" - it can't be referring to the figurative dead as when Paul tells us the sinful woman "is dead while she liveth". Yes, there are "types" of Christ all through the OT, which is...

Please, let's get something straight: the Bible only speaks of TWO, that is TWO, kinds of bodies that pertain to humans: the mortal and the resurrection. There is absolutely no mention of any "spiritual body" in death - what is said is that the mortal Body returns to dust, the Spirit returns to...

I heard an old preacher who heard it from an old preacher illustrate the difference between "the time of the end" and "the end of time". In the old days, people didn't buy a packaged turkey for Thanksgiving - they'd buy one alive. He'd be given all the food and water he wanted, and put in a...

Thank you and God bless!

My point is the context establishes that Solomon's words in Ecc. 9:5 refer to literal death - so that when it says "the living know that they shall die, but the dead know not anything" it means just that: after we die, we don't know, see, hear, think, feel, remember, praise God, etc.
