I see the simple text indentation feature is also no longer available. I liked to use that when quoting Scripture, to highlight it from the normal text.

I do believe Paul! What I wrote was in total agreement with what Paul wrote. The last (perfect man) Adam, i.e. Jesus, was made a life-giving spirit being at his resurrection. He is no longer a man. First he was a man, then he was made an immortal spirit being. Jesus sacrificed his human...

When you hovered the cursor over a Bible reference in a post then it would pop up that verse, or verses, from the ASV Bible so that you could quickly and easily see what it says. It was a very useful feature that I, and I'm sure many others, used a lot.

2 Corinthians 5:16-17 (WEB): (16) Therefore we know no one after the flesh from now on. Even though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now we know him so no more. (17) Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have...

Transfigured? The only time Jesus was transfigured Jesus told his disciples that they had seen a vision (not reality) - Matthew 17:9 (KJV): (9) And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead...

That is not referring to the resurrection of the Church, the first resurrection. The following apply to partakers of the first resurrection: 2 Corinthians 5:17 (WEB): (17) Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become...

But that was Jesus showing them the hands and feet of the human body that he temporarily formed to convince Thomas that he had indeed been resurrected to life again. He didn't show them his spiritual body. That human body disintegrated once he had finished with it; later he appeared to seven...

Where does it say that in the Bible? How can a spiritual body have the scars of a physical human body? As verse 31 says: (31) he foreseeing this spoke about the resurrection of the Christ, that his soul wasn’t left in Hades, and his flesh didn’t see decay. It's saying that his soul wasn't...

Why did you miss out verse 26?: (26) After eight days again his disciples were inside, and Thomas was with them. Jesus came, the doors being locked, and stood in the middle, and said, “Peace be to you.” Can a human being materialise out of thin air into the middle of a room? Can a human body...

The NWT does not contain the word hell. It also does not say that Jesus is God. You should read it sometime. :rolleyes:

I've already quoted it in previous posts. If you can't remember it then you just have to hover the mouse cursor over the reference and it will pop up the verse from the ASV. It's not that difficult for you to read it. The NWT is almost identical to the ASV and other translations. It says...

So do you think that God used a figure of speech in Daniel 12:2, in which case you are now accusing God of being a Jehovah's Witness and twisting His own words? :rolleyes: Or do you take God literally and believe that there have been people sleeping buried in the ground (dust of earth) for...

How can a dead person, whose body has decomposed to dust (i.e. it no longer exists), "sleep in the dust of the earth" and then "awake" "to everlasting life"? Those were God's words to Daniel (Daniel 12:2). God uses an analogy, to help explain what it will be like for dead people - he was not...

As I have said before, I have never been to a Kingdom Hall. Why do you keep making such stupid remarks? Are you saying that God is so weak and incompetent that it will take him forever to destroy a person? The Bible indicates otherwise. Everlasting destruction is not destruction at all!

No I don't admit that! As Daniel 12:2 which says "those who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake" is descibing death as a sleep, so likewise I wrote that eternal death is like an eternal sleep - there will be no waking up from it. The last verse I quoted also describes the punishment as...

And verse 46 says: (46) These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.” The righteous will have eternal life, the unrighteous will therefore not have eternal life. The punishment of the unrighteous is death, eternal death (Romans 6:23). When someone is cast...

I'd agree with that. The verse that you quoted might not be a correct interpretation though. It seems odd that God would put the written Bible above His name, and other translations do translate Psalms 138:2 differently, e.g.: WEB: I will bow down toward your holy temple, and give thanks to...

In post #721 you wrote: And they will be tormented day and night forever and ever. Amen Jesus! If you didn't mean that you want people to be tortured, then you must be ignorant of what you wrote. 'Amen' means "so be it" or "may it be so". So along with the exclamation mark it sure sounded...

I have never lied on this forum. It's possible I may have been incorrect, but that is not lying - lying is saying something that you know to be false. You're mistaken again! Your attention to detail is poor. Matthew 5:22 has no mention of anything being eternal. I quoted the ESV version to...

So you want people to be tortured forever! Be careful what you wish for. Jesus said, Matthew 5:21-22 (ESV): (21) “You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not murder; and whoever murders will be liable to judgment.’ (22) But I say to you that everyone who is angry with...
