Rather, your mind cannot grasp the kingdom of God. Nor should it be able to.

False! Forget the analog and digital thresholds and get with the word. Those IN Christ are being sanctified. Those that remain there are the saints. But not all who claim to be in Christ are IN Christ. Most walk according to their own strength and understanding. These are NOT included in the...

Good instruction comes FROM life and when properly received produces life.

What is that supposed to mean...loss means LOSS and if it is in the bible it REALLY means loss.....an eternal loss and shame. And yes the person is still saved....but just barely. Like a multiple amputee is barely surviving a war. SAME analogy different age. No loss of glory??? Where do you...

While we do not have a list of names ...we do know that the first resurrection is for ALL the saints. This does not mean ALL believers in God or Jesus. Only those who are FIT to reign with Christ. So only ACTUAL saints...those living from a new life in Christ...will be resurrected with the...

You know what loss means when you read about your finances but you are unable to discern what loss is when a far greater loss is spoken of in the bible. Only an indoctrinated person can understand the temporal loss but miss the greater eternal loss. Apply THAT reasoning to your present...

Have you not heard of the 2 different resurrections? The saints are resurrected first. Then the rest of the world are resurrected after the 1,000 years some to life and others to the lake of fire. (Matt 25)

Your question makes no sense at all. You are leaping into your own understanding and then expecting me to converse with an idea that remains unexplained. A person does not earn their way to heaven...they abide in Christ by faith and remain there by faithfulness. Period. A person who ACTUALLY...

You don't speak from an indoctrinated mindset! This is refreshing!

I leave you to your rosy interpretation that skirts the obvious. You seem unable to see what is plainly written as is always evident when trying to converse with an indoctrinated person. Abide in Christ, without Him you can do nothing. And I'm not talking about indoctrination into a "happy...

Salvation does not consist of filling out a list of theological questions correctly.

My "interpretation" as you call it brings the reality that the bible is describing. Only a religious indoctrination causes one to ignore the many warnings contained in the bible so as to read only that which gratifies the itching ears. Read the bible for yourself... How do you interpret...

Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; Phil. 2:6

Are you saying that someone who comes back from a war with his arms and legs blown off was killed in combat? read the bible as it is written not as you wish it to be. To be saved means to be passed over from the judgment and wrath on the world. But there remains the judgment seat of Christ...

The verse says ANYONE may eat...and not die...it does not say anyone may eat and be forever in glory. Check your interpretation again against he whole bible.

The issue is not with salvation itself....all believers will be spared the wrath that will come on the world. It is the QUALITY of that salvation in regards to us. How can we compare ruling and reigning with Christ as His Bride with being spit out of His mouth to wander in nakedness and shame in...

The doctrine of just war was put forth by St. Augustine. He recognized that God never commands only 'non-resistance', or 'pacificism', or whatever you want to call it. There is no lie like the bald-faced lie. Don't forget we actually read the bible....we are permitted to do that. Mat_5:39 But...

The true church has always been built on the blood of the saints...not on the religious zeal of those willing to murder. You may be confusing Jesus with Mohammad.

Yes, of course! :)

Again you are seeing through the physical carnal understanding. Jesus does not have mongol hordes for followers. The sword is the truth....not the physical implement that takes away life. Try marinating on that!
