The breath of life God breathed into the body of dust IS spirit! It is the internal part of every, living, breathing creature that gives every life function to every human part. The spirit maintains physical life to every organ, and is the source of blood flowing to every part. So body with...

Solomon can help you to better understand for he writes: Ecclesiastes 12:7 (KJV) Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it. It is only the body of believers that physically dies when the spirit departs the living body to return to God...

I agree! The spirit of man is that which gives physical life to our mortal body, and together spirit (breath of life) and body became a "living soul." It's through understanding this distinction that we know eternal life we are promised when we believe is not physical but spiritual life we...

Through our eternal spirit our mortal body shall be resurrected to life and changed (mortal to immortal & corruptible to incorruptible) in an hour coming when the last trumpet sounds. When we physically die in Christ, we have eternal spiritual life through His Spirit in us that our spirit can...

Only Christ was physically resurrected immortal prior to 70 AD. That's why we must partake of His resurrection life (first resurrection) that we too shall have no fear of the second death.

Believers have indeed experienced life from death already. Not physical life from physical death as you seem to be implying. But spiritual life from spiritual death for those who "were dead in trespasses and sins." (Eph 2) The Scripture calls this having part in the "first resurrection" and...

Revelation 7:1-5 (KJV) And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree. And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the...

Both the reward for the saints, and the judgment for those in unbelief occurs in a specific order in an hour that is coming when the last trumpet sounds.

The body of Jesus wasn't there that day. But the spirit that gave His physical body the breath of life returned to the Father. In saying "into thy hands I commend my spirit" is the same as saying I commend my breath of life (spirit). Mankind is made of a body plus the breath of life (spirit)...

The correct interpretation for "today" is 'this' day. You are correct Jesus did not physically ascend to paradise (heaven) when He died. But the spirit that gave His body life did return to God when He died. That means the spirit that gave physical life to the thief went there also on that...

Exactly! Throughout redemptive history there has always been two types of people of the earth, those who were/are for/with the Lord, called faithful saints, believers, Christians, and those who are/were against the Lord, called anti-christ, and anti-christians.

Let's imagine the two witnesses represent the Church under the Old Covenant and the Church of the New Covenant. When I say Church of Old & New, I'm speaking of faithful saints (believers). Because we, believers, are the Church in physical form on the earth. John writes they are 'four', which...

What have I said to make you think I don't believe the Bible says there shall be a second death for all who are not found written in the book of life, when the 'dead' are called to give account for what is found written in the books and the book of life? One thing Scripture says regarding the...

The difference between a corruptible physical body and incorruptible physical body is that the incorruptible physical body shall also be immortal, it will NEVER die. I've never said the spirit is a physical body. I have repeatedly stated that man must have both a physical living body with a...

How can the first resurrection be completed before the thousand years begins, when the text plainly states "they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years"? And it also says there are others who were not martyred for their faith who shall also reign with Christ a thousand years??? "Blessed...

Tim, all who were physically resurrected before the cross and resurrection are not the physically dead in the graves who shall be resurrected in an hour coming when the last trumpet sounds. Those physically resurrected before the first advent of Christ did not have part in the first...

This is right Tim, except when you say "the sons of God were created soul, body and spirit." All mankind is created with a body and spirit and together we are ALL while alive "living souls." Yes, God created man in His image, and in the beginning, before the fall, God called His creation "very...

Heaven is the abode of God, and His angels. It is a spiritual habitation not a physical one. That's why Paul writes that flesh & blood, nor corruption may enter there. Man only has access to heaven with life through his/her eternal spirit alive through the power of the Spirit in us. I really...

Tim, you're confusing the hour "NOW IS" with the hour that is coming. The hour that now is when spiritually dead, physically alive people hear the Gospel, and by grace through faith believe Christ. Through believing Christ those who were spiritually dead "in trespasses and sins" have become...

I'm glad to hear you say this. Perhaps it was your wording, or maybe my misunderstanding you, but it appeared you were saying that there would still be elect ethnic Jews who would be saved after the fullness of the Gentiles have come in. That made it appear to me that you believed there would...
