    OSAS : Gnostic Heresy

    No, you just got it wrong, but are too stiff necked to hear correction.

    Friendly Bible Study - participants must agree to Nicene Creed.

    That is just what I meant. That one historic act was not all there is or was, but rather was a small part, even a parable and a small example of the greater plan of God.

    Friendly Bible Study - participants must agree to Nicene Creed.

    That "act"--would you say it is all fulfilling regarding Joel's prophecy and Jesus's sending of the Holy Spirit, or only representational of the overall plan of God to pour out His spirit upon all flesh?

    How do you see that relating to Acts 2? :Broadly:

    God Created All Humanity When He Created Adam

    It means that all language is confused by God for the purpose of separating the wheat from the chaff, while the spirit of God guides the steps of all until all is fulfilled.

    God Created All Humanity When He Created Adam

    The words of scripture according to men, may not always appear to mean the same thing, but the Spirit makes straight.

    God Created All Humanity When He Created Adam

    That is not the biblical account, not the truth. On the contrary, Adam was created and given the breath of life from God, but then sinned against God and was condemned to die. It is written that after Adam and Eve sinned, they knew they were "naked", meaning laid bare and helpless...the result...

    God Created All Humanity When He Created Adam

    All born as children of sinful Adam receive their spirit from their father the devil. For this reason all die, even the unborn. Only those born again of the spirit of God receive their spirit from God.

    I leave you to your religion.

    God Created All Humanity When He Created Adam

    You are mistaken. All who are born are condemned to die, not for holiness from God, but from being born of sinful flesh. As for man's spirit, it is not God's spirit, but man's--the spirit of the damned since Adam. Therefore we must be born again of the spirit of God. To say otherwise is...

    God Created All Humanity When He Created Adam

    That would seem reasonable...except that each is born after his own "kind." Meaning that, because the narrative from God goes immediately to the fall of man "kind", the principle is indeed carried forward as each one born of the sinful "kind" enters into this world. Likewise, those who are born...

    God Created All Humanity When He Created Adam

    Unfolding of Adam, refolding in Christ. Bingo!

    OSAS : Gnostic Heresy

    For your insolence you do not deserve even to be set straight and corrected. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Nonetheless, No, that is not correct. In Hebrews 6 the context is pre-salvation. For salvation is entrance into that age to come and heaven of which Paul spoke (verse 5)...

    OSAS : Gnostic Heresy

    I was giving you some insight to the problems we are confronting here. Read Revelation Chapter 10.

    OSAS : Gnostic Heresy

    The apostle John heard and was about to write what would come to occur in these last days, but was then told not to write, but to seal up the information. (Revelation 10). Then he was given a preview of what can rightfully be considered a postscript "little book", which was at first "sweet", but...

    It’s Paul For Me!

    The chosen of Israel are "the dead in Christ", of which He was "the Last." The church are the many "firstfruits" and "the living in Christ" of which He is "the First", who have and do "follow" Him in His ascension out of the flesh and this world, and into the spirit and the kingdom of heaven...

    OSAS : Gnostic Heresy

    1 John 3:9 Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God. Unfortunately, many do not reconcile all that is written, for which Jesus said, "There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth" (Matthew 24:51).

    What becomes of our faith if the Genesis account is NOT literal?

    What is written is true, but stipulations were also given: From the beginning the very elements that we and all the universe are made up of, God refers to our own make up as a form of "image." Meaning, that since we are made up of the dust of the earth which Peter clearly stated were to burned...

    Anybody else?

    Absolutely! The world is the place created by God to manifest both good and evil, then restrict return entry to those who are born [again} of His perfect spiritual nature. So, yes, there is a war going on. And just as there is an unseen war going on in heaven, there is an unseen war manifest...
