I will just make the point here that the word seed in 1 Peter 1:23 is from the Greek word, "spora", meaning parentage; it is not the same word that is spoken of in passages such as the parable of the sower.

So you really aren't interested in any answer. You were the one who suggested Google was my source. So I think it was you who were getting personal. And I do believe that it is you who do not understand the scripture that you posted.

Waiting for the answer to what? And Google? Is Google your source in these things? It sure seems like it might be.

But you espouse it. And Calvin was wrong.

So you think you, like Peter, Paul, James, John and the rest of the apostles and prophets, have received divine revelation directly from God? What a joke.

The only word of God available to you is the Bible. Outside of the evidence of the existence of God in the creation, there is no other source to learn about God except His written word.

He did that for you but not for the millions or billions of other lost souls? I do not believe that for a moment. And you can't prove that He did. So why in the world should I believe it? Because you say do? I don't think so.

How did He do that?

God initiated it by giving us the Bible.

No, you are wrong. Yes, definitely. Through being taught about God either by someone else that you believe and trust or, in modern day with ready access of the Bible, through reading and studying the Bible, God's written word. Where do you read anything about an imperishable seed and being...

Faith is not a gift! ! ! ! ! Faith in God is no different than faith in anything else. You become convinced of the truth through what you hear about it. And you are so convinced in it that you place your trust in it. I believe in God in the same way that I believe in gravity. I am...

The phrase, "faith to believe", is an oxymoron. Belief in God is faith. To believe in God is to have faith. Faith and Belief are the exact same words in Greek.

Pure gibberish! Eccl 12:7 and the dust returns to the earth as it was, and the spirit returns to God who gave it.

It wasn't an insurrection. Trump has not been convicted of engaging in an insurrection. He hasn't even been charged. The reason he hasn't been charged is that they know that in a court of law, it would be declared not to be an insurrection and it would be thrown out of court. They do not want...

The body that Jesus is describing there is the exact same body that He was crucified with. That was his point. There is nothing in all of that to even suggest that His raised body was spiritual and incorruptible. in the sense of 1 Corinthians 15:44. It was only in His ascension that He was...

Yes, of course it is the real threat to democracy. Democrats, especially the leadership, are socialists. The United States of America is a Democratic Republic. Socialism is a threat to the democratic republic basis of this country. Socialism is, just like communism, fascism, and Naziism, a...

That is physical, corporal, material. It is composed of flesh and blood. 1Co 15:50 I tell you this, brothers: flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.

Who said Jesus rose with such a body? He certainly didn't make such a statement.

I do understand 2 Corinthians 5:1-10. There are not two different physical bodies presented there. There is the "earthly home" and the heavenly dwelling. We know the earthly home is the physical body. We learn from 1 Corinthians 15 that the heavenly dwelling is spiritual not physical. And...

Why didn't God do that in the first place instead of creating it such that most of all humanity will end up eternally condemned?
