    Irrefutable biblical proof that death is abolished at the second coming

    Call me daffy but I wonder, why would the Old Covenant prophets write of a Messiah coming again? Would not every prophetic utterance concerning him NOT be of a Messiah to come, when all that is written of Him shall be fulfilled? It seems illogical to me that the prophets would prophesy of...

    They will reign with Him a thousand years and making an unknown Greek out of the English New Testament

    Rev 20 speaks of only one physical resurrection of the dead! John writes the DEAD shall be bodily resurrected to stand before God at the GWT to give account according to what is written in the books and the book of life. Since the names of the DEAD shall not be written in the book of life, the...

    Irrefutable biblical proof that death is abolished at the second coming

    I agree! It is the spirit, through the life-giving Spirit within that has eternal/everlasting life that shall never die. Though our mortal body of flesh shall die, we as a spiritual body of believers ascends to heaven alive called living souls. Isn't that why John writes of souls alive after...

    The Kingdom of God.... Is it within you?

    It's not about ethnicity! THEM who are not cast off are the remnant according to election of grace. The remnant is preserved by God by grace through faith NOT because they are the nation called Israel.

    Irrefutable biblical proof that death is abolished at the second coming

    Is our body who man is? Or is our body of flesh that which houses the man within that is spirit? There is no doubt none shall be immortal & incorruptible flesh until the last trump sounds and our bodies of flesh are raised up and changed (at least for those who died in Christ). Knowing that...

    Irrefutable biblical proof that death is abolished at the second coming

    The Word of God is crystal clear that physical death is abolished at the second coming of the Lord. The irrefutable verses and passages make this truth abundantly clear for whosoever has ears to hear. What is NOT as clearly understood is how the life we have in Christ is eternal, or never...

    Irrefutable biblical proof that death is abolished at the second coming

    For the one who dies in Christ, the life we have through Him is eternal never ending 'spiritual' life through His Spirit in us. If when our natural body dies we are not awakened to life a spiritual body of believers in heaven, why does Christ say the life we received when we were born again...

    Irrefutable biblical proof that death is abolished at the second coming

    I agree, with one minor difference of opinion. I believe the body that is resurrected and changed to immortal & incorruptible will be as our human body was in the beginning when God created man. I believe it will be physical, of flesh made from the earth, with a breath of life that is spirit...

    They will reign with Him a thousand years and making an unknown Greek out of the English New Testament

    There shall be ONE physically resurrection of ALL the dead in the graves. You elected to omit when ALL the dead shall be resurrected "for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice." That's not two resurrections of ALL the dead in the graves as you imagine...

    The Kingdom of God.... Is it within you?

    Do you not understand that God NEVER cast them off utterly only because "the remnant of them shall be saved"? God's promises are always given only to whosoever is of faith! It's not about ethnicity, but is about faithfulness to God.

    The Kingdom of God.... Is it within you?

    But there was a stipulation they must be obedient to the Covenant, and God's patience clearly had an end date or they would still be in possession of all of the land of Cannan. The FACT that they lost the land through disobedience, as well as the utter destruction of the Holy City and Temple is...

    The Kingdom of God.... Is it within you?

    Earlier you spoke only of the remnant being God's Covenant people? That was truth, because most of Israel of the flesh have died in unbelief, and to this day most of them living continue to be in unbelief.

    The Kingdom of God.... Is it within you?

    If it must be given a name it should be "inclusionary theology" not "replacement theology" because Israel of God to whom the Covenant promise is given become an innumerable multitude of people from every nation, tribe, kindred and tongue, no longer one small nation as Israel of the flesh is.

    The Kingdom of God.... Is it within you?

    All of the ethnic seed of Israel through Christ are not cast off. There is always a remnant according to election of grace within Israel in unbelief that are eternally saved. The seed cast off of Israel "for all that they have done" are not the Israel of God. It is the ethnic nation that...

    The Kingdom of God.... Is it within you?

    The dispersion was of Christian Jews as well as Gentiles of faith converted and dispersed with them through the Gospel preached in the power of the Holy Spirit.

    The Kingdom of God.... Is it within you?

    The time for choosing Israel alone to be His representative as the Kingdom of God physically on this earth, has long ago ceased to be the holy people, and holy nation unto God. God chose them for a purpose. That was to be the nation from whom Christ would come. Once Christ came the purpose...

    The Kingdom of God.... Is it within you?

    With a little more context from the words of Jeremiah we find the covenant in view is not the covenant to the nation of Israel. It is pointing to the new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Jacob, not according to the covenant God made with their fathers. The covenant they...

    The Kingdom of God.... Is it within you?

    If this is the covenant you are referring to, perhaps you missed the conditionality placed upon Israel IF... ye will obey My voice, and keep My covenant! Only THEN would the nation of Israel remain the people of God. For the nation of Israel to be unto God a kingdom of priests, and an holy...

    The Kingdom of God.... Is it within you?

    The problem that we all encounter and must try to overcome is bringing what we have been taught into our study of the Word of God. We're all guilty of this, because we all have preconceived opinions for what we believe. I know the doctrine you believe is biblical very well, because before I...

    They will reign with Him a thousand years and making an unknown Greek out of the English New Testament

    Remember Hobie numbering of verses and passages were added to aid our reading. "This is the first resurrection" is not the dead that shall not live again until the thousand years were finished. Those of the first resurrection are the blessed and holy, overcome the second death, priests of God...
