    They will reign with Him a thousand years and making an unknown Greek out of the English New Testament

    Yes I do understand the meaning of 2 Corinthians 5:1 You are wrong. Adam and Eve were given physical bodies which were not incorruptible. They were physical bodies designed to die eventually unless there was something to keep them from doing so. God took care of that while they were in the...

    They will reign with Him a thousand years and making an unknown Greek out of the English New Testament

    1 Peter 3:18 describes the dead body of Jesus being physically resurrected (Greek - egersis, see Matthew 27:53) from the Grave by the Holy Spirit. Ephesians 2:5 describes our spiritual regeneration from being dead in trespasses and sins. It has nothing to do with being made alive physically...

    They will reign with Him a thousand years and making an unknown Greek out of the English New Testament

    What in the world are you talking about. Jesus was never "quickened". The word "quickened" is a KJV rendering of the Greek word, "zōopoieō" meaning to be made alive, i.e., spiritually regenerated. It is another expression for born again. Jesus as never spiritually regenerated. He was...

    Yes, that is true. But only because there is no such thing as a permanent incorruptible physical body now nor will there ever be. 1Co 15:35 But someone will ask, "How are the dead raised? With what kind of body do they come?" 1Co 15:36 You foolish person! What you sow does not come to life...

    Romans 11 and the real Replacement Theology

    Believe what you will. I do not agree. The indwelling Holy Spirit doesn't change who we are; He helps us live differently in obeying the law of God. We are not under the law for salvation, but we still are under the obligation to obey the relevant laws of God. Rom 7:24 Wretched man that I...

    Romans 11 and the real Replacement Theology

    Gen 2:7 Then the LORD God formed man of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath [neshamah] of life [chayay]; and man became a living being [nephesh].

    Romans 11 and the real Replacement Theology

    There is no indication that the breath of life is the same as the spirit that God forms in man (Zech 12:1; Eccl 12:7).

    Everyone dies. Nothing changed that. Adam's death has nothing to do with us in any way at all. We don't sin because Adam did and we don't die because Adam did. That is you in spades and your physical eternal life.

    1Co 15:42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown a perishable body, it is raised an imperishable body; 1Co 15:43 it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power; 1Co 15:44 it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. If...

    They will reign with Him a thousand years and making an unknown Greek out of the English New Testament

    That is absolutely not true. The seed sown does not rise again as a seed. It is completely different, not the same at all. The idea that in the resurrection we will be brought back to life as was Lazarus or Jesus or the many others spoken of in the Bible is simply not true. That is the whole...

    Romans 11 and the real Replacement Theology

    You need to read Romans 7 very carefully, because I think Paul disagrees with you. The indwelling Holy Spirit, received upon being born again, i.e., being saved, does not change the believer in the way you suggest.

    You need to be more careful. The bodily resurrection is not the same as the resurrection of the physical body. We know that from 1 Corinthians 15:35-49. The resurrection body is not the physical body we now have. I would argue that the anastasis is never referring to the resurrection of the...

    Romans 11 and the real Replacement Theology

    If you are going to draw a distinction between soul and spirit, then you should be careful. From the Genesis account of creation, God said in 1:20, (ESV) "Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the expanse of the heavens." The word...

    They will reign with Him a thousand years and making an unknown Greek out of the English New Testament

    Jesus was resurrected, i.e., ἔγερσις [egersis]; He was raised from the dead much like Lazarus. Every reference to the resurrection at the end of the age when Christ returns is ἀνάστασις [anastasis]. 1Co 15:12 Now if Christ is proclaimed as raised (ἔγερσις [egersis])from the dead, how...

    Immigration is a good thing-----

    The Bible also pictures God with body parts. I don't think any of that or the representations of Jesus or God in Revelation present a literal view of either.

    Immigration is a good thing-----

    Try telling that to New York City, Chicago, Baltimore, and all those other cities that are spending billions of dollars paying for those illegal immigrants that have come in since Biden took office. You obviously do not know and understand how the rate of unemployment is calculated. The...

    If it is not flesh and blood, I do not know what you are talking about because it sure won't be a human body.

    They will reign with Him a thousand years and making an unknown Greek out of the English New Testament

    I think you are the one not getting the point of the verse. It says, "....what we will be has not yet appeared...." That means, that those who claim that we shall be like the risen Jesus are wrong. Jesus appeared, Many saw Him. And that is not how we will be in the resurrectioin. I don't...
