Again, I understand your sentiments...but your reverence for all that Christ has done is getting the way of "all truth." Some of your quoted scriptures actually declare that Jesus was born of that sin nature of all men. 2 Corinthians 5:21 for example says that He (God the Father) made Him...

Hey--this is good--kudos! I am sure there is more, but most of humanity has been mistaken about many things...and it only gets revealed in God's timing. Meanwhile, all throughout history much of what seemed to be right and true has proven to be false...and it is easy to get caught up in what...

This is a good indication of what is actually true of the timing of these events. In other words, the passage says "now" (shall the prince of this world be cast out) and you are saying that it is "future." But the passage also says "now is the judgment of this world." When do people say the...

You are reading too much into it--complicating things. Answer this simple question and you will know when it all began: When did tribulations begin to occur in this world?

Not sure how that applies to "the truth doesn't hurt the dead"...but okay.

Biblically speaking--Christianity has changed--and was foretold to change early on...by "false teachers" teaching "destructive heresies" causing "strong delusion." And what of Paul's words regarding "correction" among the church--what correction would be necessary if Christianity never became...

It might also be said: The Word begins where the scriptures end--for though the words may come in literary form, they are Spirit.

Yes, I simply broke it down "as it is written"..."male and female", for Eve was a part taken out of Adam. The distinction of which God has seen fit to reveal. It sounds like you are saying Jesus was not fully a man or a "Son of man." As a man, He too was "tempted", and qualified therefore to...

Yes, and unfortunately "false teachers" (as Peter said) have come into the church and spread the "destructive doctrines" in the midst of ("Christ in you/us") doing all that was promised--that is indeed occurring, but stifled among men--causing "strong delusion" (as Paul said). Which is to say...

Okay, I see we need to back up. Not to make this personal, although you are welcome to answer personally-- Do you know of anyone in whom Christ has come? If you know of more than one, did He "come in" them on "that day"--that same day? Or did He "come in" to them "but each one in his own...

Don't misunderstand, most who would assume or ask that question seem to think it means that what is being said is that Jesus came for all on a particular day already past. But no, I am not saying that. What I am saying--which is the only way to reconcile all scripture--is that every time Jesus...

The key word there, is "in" (in His saints). Which begs the question-- Is He "in" anyone even now? Which we would all look at differently now if not for the foretold "lie" causing "strong delusion" regarding Jesus' return, as told and taught by those "who did not believe the truth but had...

Look, if you want to have a thread about the worldly aspects of our heavenly God revealing his greater truth in scripture for those who have ears to hear--but don't want to hear that greater truth--I have no problem leaving YOU to it. But your worldly understanding and focus is the makings of...

Nothing exists without God: Isaiah 45:7 KJV — I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.

Unfortunately the truth doesn't hurt the dead. They only fear it when it means something is taken away from them, and they are likely to be all the more callus when their short time is close to running out.

I just gave answer to this in post #852. But the matter is that of the "the only begotten of the Father" (John 1:14, 1:18, 3:16 and 3:18). Creation is a different matter, from which came both good and evil, which God has done to "divide the light from the darkness" (the good from the evil). The...

Indeed, all that is made--even the women--that part in the image of God taken out, is made by and for Christ. But the difference between the man and the woman, is that part of the image that God has created is the mother of sin--and--and as that image unfolds all of God's creations produce "in...

Happy Birthday angel! :shortcake:

I would not want to encourage anyone to do anything except what is right by God. Suicide seems wrong, but so does a life of rebellion against God. And who among us is not guilty of ever being wrong? Either way God decides. Our lives are not really in our own hands. So, what, God allows suicide...

Good--by this you know 7-fold the charge against you, for which you will answer.
