    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    Amen!! The Jewish understanding then, under the OC, was "allowed" by them to be understood, but there is no OT scripture from God about it. Therefore the only Authority we have, is the testimony of the Lord Jesus Himself, the eyewitness accounts of the disciples, and what the Holy Spirit reveals...

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    Amen GE, I do AGREE with you on that! As to to the remainder of your post, I understand what you trying to say, and you will, but only WHEN you comprehend who, and not what the New Jerusalem is.

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    Theories?? Here are some facts: Our mortal bodies are earthly because they consist of the elements of the earth, beginning with Oxygen for our blood, so that our mortal flesh will stay alive. Leviticus 17:11 (KJV). Today, we all now know, what the "breath of life" is, when Moses DIDN'T!! But...

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    Ok, again, but lets look at it from the truth that you are trying to marry, between to scriptures. (a.) 1 Corinthians 15:50 (b.) Luke 24:39. (a.) Says "flesh and blood". (b.) Says "flesh and bone". Now, as you compare the two, do you see any difference as to what is written? I mean, do the...

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    The focus is on Jesus' own testimony, about His own resurrection, as it is written in the account of Thomas' eyewitness of what he saw, and Christ's words said to him. And I'm the liar?? I think not!

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    Then you disagree with the pre-incarnate Christ, speaking of Himself in the book of Proverbs 8:22-31 (KJV)

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    Hi Charity, Could you please reference that which the Jews "allow" in their understanding, of a "resurrection of just and unjust" in the OT? I can't seem to find it:) Thanks, EB

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    Yes, hearing the Truth has a tendency to cause the hearers to speak blasphemous words. Yes, please do keep your "natural man" under control and to yourself.

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    Umm... prior to Jesus, no one was ever resurrected into Immortality, or an everlasting being of any kind!! Did you forget (or don't know), that only Jesus is the FIRSTborn from the dead".

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    You are denying the innocence of the Blood of his mortality, and that He resurrected without blood, into Immortality, being of "flesh and bone".

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    After reading what you wrote, I think Barney is correct in his "fence sitting", even though the outcome is not beneficial to him.

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    Then, as I did say, you are denying the physical resurrection of Jesus Christ and his own testimony. Luke 24[39] Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    There are two judgments that were ordained of God: 1. The judgment of death through Adam, of which we all inherited. Genesis 2:17 2. The judgment for the Gift of Eternal Life, through faith in Jesus. John 3:18. 1. Adam was the FIRST to receive eternal death. 2. Jesus was the FIRST to receive...

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    One cannot discern, comprehend or understand what the second death is, until they fully realize that Adam first DIED to God, and then later DIED the death of his natural self! When cessation of life comes, that is the second death! We all are physically born separated from God, which is to say...

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    We all, who are "from beneath", are born as a living soul, breathing the oxygenated air for life, aka "the natural man". All of such are born without the Spirit of God, and therefore DO NOT have eternal existence of any kind.

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    Here is a problem that most Christians over look, neglect, refuse and even deny: No person who has DIED the first death (dead to God, in sin, spiritually separated from God), but then DIES the natural physical death (cessation of life), HAS DIED THE second death. It is IMPOSSIBLE for God to...

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    Davy, go back and read the situation of Thomas. Jesus was resurrected into/with NEW Life!! Are you saying that He lied, when He said that His body was flesh and bone?? I hope not! Of course His body was thus, but without blood. So I ask you, since blood is that which keeps our mortal flesh...

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    No, i didn't change my mind! Jesus rose from His death/the grave into New Life, which was "flesh and bone", which was without blood, because it was shed from His wounds!! Without blood, how then He could be alive, ...again? Ans. He had NEW Life by the Spirit of God. He is a whole NEW Immortal...

    'Death is swallowed up in victory' -When?

    Nice mantra, and it sounds truthful, but its not! You would have us believe that Jesus was not pre-existent before his incarnation through Mary. Once again see Genesis 1:26 Proverbs 8:22-31 John 1:1-6 John 1:14
