Satan can impersonate a human form, for sure, just as angels did so for Abraham, Lot, etc. I doubt those men of Sodom wouldn't ventured to do what they did if they knew those two were more than must men

2 Corinthians 5:2 "For in this (earthly body) we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven (glorified body)..." Seems to me most Christians groan at the thought of having to leave this earthly body and be clothed with that glorified body, as if they'll...

You know, I'd have more respect for opinion if you'd have addressed that point I made about Jesus in the garden, which I think totally undermines it. As I said, if you're going to go by "what I feel" instead of "thus saith the Lord", that's your business. Despite what anyone says, "I'm staying...

He did say he "groaned" to be absent from the body, did he not?

You mean "spirit" like an evil version of Gabriel?

Nothing. That's why he does it. It's far easier to do that and just ignore all those texts which are so bothersome to that way of thinking, instead of allowing the Holy Spirit to lead us to the truth that we're saved by grace but judged by works because works are the evidence that we've been...

I never said you were a legalist, but that the kind of reasoning your offering is similar to what those criticized as "legalists" are alleged to use. This is the kind of twisted thinking I'm talking about that makes you guys the real legalists. Did Jesus in Gethsemane dream of how wonderful His...

You don't believe in a literal, fallen angel now referred to as "Satan"?

It is not "light" to teach folks that the Ten Commandments are only New Covenant "Ten Suggestions". They are and will always be "Commandments". They are the standard in the Judgement - that bulldookey about when we get to heaven the only question we'll be asked is "did you accept My Son's...

Thank you! I've been telling this to people for years. Some argue "unclothed" and "naked" refers to "without the robe of Christ's righteousness", but this is both illogical and out of context. Would Paul really have to convince anyone his groaning is not a desire to be without the covering of...

Of course you don't have a problem with imposing them on others as long as you don't have to keep them. Who cares if others are forbidden the pleasures of sin as long as you are free to indulge immoral sexual deviant behavior, greed, pride, all of those things which delight the carnal...

I think he'll stop all that once he confesses Jesus was right along with all the others that are about to be vaporized.

All I know is that Paul longed with painful longing to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord, but Paul knew that the Ten Commandments were God's will for him, as well as us. That's why he remained. As for you, I'm not so sure why you choose to remain if you truly believe we are...

One thing's for sure. the devil loves to counterfeit the things of God. With his obsession with pyramids, it's likely the New Jerusalem is shaped like a pyramid. Ain't you glad the day is coming when we'll be inside and him outside regretting all the dirt that he did mankind?

Why do you Antinomianists get all fouled up in legalities - which makes you guys the true legalists - when it comes to a very simple issue? Does a husband "maintain" or "add to" the marriage by not cheating on his wife? Or is that which actually accomplishes the maintenance and growth of the...

??? I didn't say that at all. I'm saying WADR the reason you guys give for still being here sounds like bulldookey because you can't admit how inconsistent your reasoning seems to be, again WADR. Being dead to the law is not a license to break the law - it means you're dead to the idea of...

I tried reading it, but only got about 1/4 way. Seems like just a long apologetic on ancient mystery religion Sun worship

Thanks, I needed a good laugh :p Not laughin at you Stranger

The Bible says people were "saved by water". The water didn't save anyone, it drowned people. Therefore, there are a couple of ways to understand "saved by water". 1) The human race was "saved by water" because if God didn't send the Flood, the corrupting influence of the Antediluvians would...

It's provocative not because of it's shock value - but because of the result, which is leaving behind a place of daily heartache, pain, suffering, and death for a place so glorious the Bible says we can't even begin to imagine. Who but an insane person would choose to stay if there's nothing (is...
