Jesus came "but for the house of Israel" and "finished." Meaning, that the Israel of the Bible, that God chose to be a light and blessing unto all the nations of the world (the Gentiles)--is "finished." And what we now see as the modern state of Israel, is not dry bone coming forth--they "were"...

Yes, you have described your own situation quite well. But that does not account for the unfinished work of Christ to every generation until the end under His authority. An example of that authority, is Paul, saying, "For me, to live is Christ." And he was just one under the authority of...

Is the love He commanded not to include laying down our own life in His own love unto every generation, as He did, saying "Follow Me?" I tell you--it is.

They you would be wrong, for we are commissioned to continue His commandments--not only for ourselves in good Christian living having been saved--not just considering our own end, but rather His end, and His work unto every generation. As for confusion, even the scriptures are under the...

You are not connecting the dots. The words are handed down--just as Paul was doing with Timothy, and just as Jesus did with the 12, then the 70, "first to the Jew, and also to the Greek (Gentile)." You have also been reminded of the fact that Jesus' words will not pass away but are eternal, as...

That is a good explanation, except that the 12 were just the beginning, sent only to (and representing) the 12 tribes of the house of Israel. But then also to the ends of the earth Jesus added the seventy, telling them to pray that even more be added (Luke 9-10). It is as I have already said...

"49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly." --Born, and born again, right there in verse 49. Don't presume to correct me.

Oh, if it would be that we all had one foot on the land and the other on the sea: one foot in the world and the other in the kingdom of God. But there is a final chapter now upon us. Therefore, many are still only established in the world, as if the church age will go on forever. It will not...

We people have a tenancy to most consider that portion we have found along our own way. Our own way. However, along the way of God and His revealing Himself to so many witnesses one pure thread of truth, it is the overall that should be our guide. Given a map or timeline saying "You are here"...

"All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work" (2 Timothy 3:16-17).

Why should I claim anything of myself? I will not. But others have and it is written, of which you simply are not aware. So, answer for yourself: If I am sent--which I am--what am I?

You in conclusion contradict yourself (here in the above comments) expecting that the scriptures show you correct. But they do not. You say God did, but; and He will, but. But Paul has clarified, saying we "are His body" as He is the head, and "for me to live is Christ." The two become One, but...

You questioned what I said regarding the creation (including Christ) being image-based, as declared by God from the beginning, saying "The image cannot be that which is being imaged." Which I then explained was not just me expressing my own opinion, but was the truth from God. Which you have...

As I said before there is no contest if both are of God. The problem is you have questioned and challenged me in declaring what is true from God, while you sight support or confirmation of your position on predestination with your explanation of church history. Which is an oxymoron...and does...

A general definition is simply: one sent by Christ. Which indeed began with the twelve by name, but continued with the seventy also, and a commandment to pray for more to be sent into His harvest. I know very little about John Calvin. But, how is it that Jesus "called his teachings...

All the vote choices were limited to a "resurrection" description, which is not really accurate with regard to the born again experience (most members of the church). To the contrary, 1 Corinthians 15:49-50 refers to the flesh body and the spiritual body as being two completely different...

How then do you define "apostle?"

Then you'd be on track but wrong (as are they).

"Might" was not me suggesting a mere possibility, but rather that you "might" consider the great testimony of witnesses since the world began, to be credible and not mere coincidence. As for personal beliefs, that is not the foundation of what I have been speaking of. I have been saying what I...

That's awesome...as it is written, and should be. Life is quite exciting when that spirit light of God is on and shinning in our direction. Praise God!
