    Was Christ at any time, under the dominion of death, did He die? If so, how did he overcome His own death?

    How could anyone kill Christ? Hebrews 2 says God gave Him a flesh and blood body like the children of God also have, the incarnation made Christ vulnerable to death. So, Christ died. But I know for you if you're a JW, that means the dead cease to exist. And how can Christ be divine and also...

    What are some of the reasons people don’t like going to church buildings or institutionalized churches?

    I stopped going to a church 20 years ago when I found out the youth pastor was a full preterist and he was teaching all the kids, including my 2 kids that nonsense. A few listened to me, but most shrugged it off claiming it was not a salvation issue. I wrote letters, talked with the pastor and...

    What are some of the reasons people don’t like going to church buildings or institutionalized churches?

    Just because a person does not go to any church, does not mean they are not a saved believer in Christ, we know we are saved as Jesus most assuredly says, ************************************ John 5 24 “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has...

    The Jerusalem which is above is the heavenly city of promise which God has prepared for His saints

    You just made my case, guilty as charged. You are still on ignore, man are you dead on the inside or what? This guy has no feeling, empathy etc... just blasts his way through life running over anyone who gets in his way. Always trying to get in the last word. Well back to the ignore status...

    The Jerusalem which is above is the heavenly city of promise which God has prepared for His saints

    I saw you responded about me, so I responded, did you even read my post? I had the gall! What a load that is. I don't care if you get angry, sad, or are indifferent, but why not stop behaving like mere men of the flesh. But see the attitude is showing someone not interested in the ways of...

    The Jerusalem which is above is the heavenly city of promise which God has prepared for His saints

    Ok, In your opinion, however over many years of discussions about Christians subjects, I have found it is a waste of time to keep discussions going when someone is entirely opposed to your POV, as nothing ever changes with them or with me. I eventually just stop the conversation as it is...

    People quote many verses to support their premill theology too. On ignore.

    The Jerusalem which is above is the heavenly city of promise which God has prepared for His saints

    Why? because your being ridiculous. The Bridegroom returns for the Bride, which is His church, made up of individual believers, not a city. And the city is where God and men dwell together.

    The Jerusalem which is above is the heavenly city of promise which God has prepared for His saints

    Who is the Bridegroom coming for, the city? OR is he coming back for us. Matthew 25 “Then the kingdom of heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2 Now five of them were wise, and five were foolish. 3 Those who were foolish took their...

    Next they will say Christ being the head of the body, is like Frankenstein, whose head was transplanted onto a different body.

    The Jerusalem which is above is the heavenly city of promise which God has prepared for His saints

    John 3 and the Bride of the Bridegroom. The bride is the church and the church is made of individual members Next thing people will say is the city is the church, not the people of the church, and Christ died for the city to bring it to God. 27 John answered and said, “A man can receive...

    Trump Moving Too Fast?

    Right now I am discussing the New Jerusalem in eschatology forum, and a poster pops up and tells me the city is the bride, not the believers who live there. Can you imagine that! He is conflating a couple verses together.

    The Jerusalem which is above is the heavenly city of promise which God has prepared for His saints

    When the angel says he will show the bride, that is the people of God who live in the holy city, not the physical city. The bride is the body of believers inhabit this city. You are conflating v9 and v10 as to assume the city is the bride. If I say to you I am going to show you the people of...

    Trump Moving Too Fast?

    This is the Gospel and it is not complicated theology. 1 Cor 15 chapter describes it well. The end result is belief in Christ, and if you do not hold to the word preached of the gospel, you believed in vain. Many poor and simple people are saved by the gospel. The Risen Christ, Faith’s Reality...

    Come on people, don't go all weird on the Holy City, where God and man dwell together on the New earth The New Jerusalem is a lovely place, decked out AS a bride adorned for her husband, but it is not THE bride of God. https://www.gotquestions.org/bride-of-Christ.html The imagery and symbolism...

    Prophetic Anticipation in the Old Testament Several Old Testament passages foreshadow a re-created earth and a renewed city: • Isaiah 66:22 describes a new heavens and new earth as an enduring place for God’s faithful. • Ezekiel 37 and 48 point to the unification and total restoration of...

    The city God has prepared for His people to inhabit is not the bride of Christ, we are the bride of Christ https://biblehub.com/q/what_is_new_jerusalem.htm What is New Jerusalem? Definition and Overview The term “New Jerusalem” refers to the glorious city that Scripture depicts as the eternal...
