Hello @Ronald Nolette, Perhaps you can supply Scripture for those beliefs, yes? Thank you In Christ Jesus Chris

'But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come? (1 Corinthians 15:35) Hi @marks, We do not have a celestial body at the moment, do we? 'There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of...

'For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven: If so be that being clothed we shall not be...

Hi @marks I believe it to be the deposit of truth, which was revealed to Paul by God, which He is committing to God to guard, for it is being turned away from as he is. He has committed it also to Timothy to make known 'to faithful men', and Timothy is also urged to 'keep' it. For Paul as...

'For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven: If so be that being clothed we shall not be...

'If ye then be risen with Christ, (by God's reckoning) seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. When Christ, Who is our life, shall...

'Jesus saith unto her, "Thy brother shall rise again." Martha saith unto Him, "I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day." Jesus said unto her," I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth...

(1) For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. (2) For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven: (3) If so be that being clothed...

Hello @Available Light, That is what I am assured is it's meaning in the marginal notes in my Bible. It by no means nullifies the Word of God, nor does injustice to the testimony of Scripture as a whole. For the testimony of Scripture shows that those who do indeed have the Word of God...

Hello @Available Light, Thank you for responding. You refer to John 8:51:- 'Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death.' This is referring to eternal death, because he who has the Word of God abiding in Him, will have part in the 'resurrection unto life'...

Hello @VictoryinHim Forgive me, for I can see that I have indeed confused you, I am sorry. I don't see how I can really rectify it, except to take away the underlining, and ask you to read it as it stands, without emphasis on anything in particular. If you find it still causes confusion...

'And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. .. But if the Spirit of Him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, .... He that raised up Christ from the dead ...... shall also quicken your mortal bodies by His Spirit...

'Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.' (Matthew 22:28) 'I AM - .. the God of Abraham, and .... the God of Isaac, and ...... the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.' (Matthew 22:32) Hello @marks...

Hello @Ronald Nolette, With respect, please look at Matthew 22:28, and the word, 'in the resurrection'. It is only the power of the resurrection that can raise us to life. Thank you In Christ Jesus Chris

Hello @VicroryinJesus, Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I am glad that you have the joy of going to sleep with the word of God on your mind. How necessary it is to have the word of God dwelling in us richly, isn't it? For the Holy Spirit is able to use those moments of quiet, to bring to...

(12) For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that He is able to keep that which I have committed unto Him against that day. (13) Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of me, in...

Hello, @VictoryinJesus, Thank you for your response. I so love the thought that God 'keeps' or guards us, as in Philippians 4:6-7 where it is our hearts and minds that He keeps. We doing our part in the outworking of that peace by doing what is said in Philippians 4:8-9. You mention 2...

'For God, Who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.' (2Co...

'And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose. For whom He did foreknow, He also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. Moreover whom He did...

'That good thing which was committed unto thee keep by the Holy Ghost which dwelleth in us. This thou knowest, that all they which are in Asia be turned away from me; of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes.' (2 Timothy 1:14) Hello @VictoryinJesus (& @Hidden In Him) Thank you for this...
