The same Spirit was with the sons of God before Pentecost as after. Human flesh indeed cannot bring forth sons of God, because the Spirit gives life and the flesh profits nothing. By the power of the Spirit with them Old Covenant men of faith are sons of the living God, just as we who have His...

You appear to be steeped in Jewish tradition and folklore. I would assess you to be a Jewish Christian Zionist with little understanding of Redemptive history and Gospel truth.

You misunderstood the point I am making. It was my intention to show that since there were born at that time men who called upon the name of the Lord, why would we not define these men of faith sons of God? I'm not saying that only men from the line of Seth were sons of God. I just believe...

What is the difference between the ceremonial law, the moral law, and the judicial law in the Old Testament? The differences between Jewish ceremonial law, moral law, and judicial law in the Old Testament are as follows: Ceremonial law encompassed any rule surrounding celebrations and regular...

Who else would the sons of God be, since the only others mentioned are daughters of men? Does it not stand to reason that the sons of God would have been those who began to call upon the name of the Lord in the days of Seth, when a son, called Enos was born to him?

What other laws are written in the Torah you say Christians MUST abide? We are already familiar with the Ten Commandments which are depicting the moral laws of God. Are you saying that if we fail to keep the ceremonial laws we shall not be saved, and in fact be condemned?

Jesus did not come to fulfill the ceremonial laws written in the Torah. He came to do the Father's will, and this He accomplished by teaching His people the moral law which He fulfilled perfectly. That's why He says things such as, we don't commit murder simply by killing another, but in fact...

It could have been more easily understood that these "angels" were not spirit beings, but human beings, if the translators had uniformly translated ἄγγελος angelos messenger instead of taking upon themselves to pick and choose when to define messenger (which could be human or spirit) and when to...

Matthew 5 begins with Christ speaking to His disciples from a mountain. The lessons He taught them there are often referred to as Christ's Sermon on the Mount. The lessons there are found here: Mt 5:1-7:29. I want to especially highlight for you Matthew 5:17-18 (KJV) " Think not that I am...

I understand what you mean, I don't follow doctrines of men, especially 'isms' either. Funny thing is, I've discovered that when I began to share what I have learned through my study of Scripture of many years, others began to label me things like Calvinist, and Amillennialistic. The only...

The doctrine you espouse here aligns with Amillennialism! Do you agree?

You really crack me up!

Exactly! This is what I have been hoping to hear you say. Having agreed the saints in heaven are living spiritual souls, can you elaborate on how they are spirits alive in heaven after they have physically died? Are you reluctant to say they are spirits alive in heaven after they have...

It is the spirit of living saints in heaven, that ascended to heaven after physical death, a spiritual body. And this is what returns with Christ to be reunited to an immortal & incorruptible physical body that shall be forever.

No it doesn't! You cannot disprove eternal security is indeed eternal by pointing out that even believers while clothed in mortal, corruptible bodies, destined to die, may still choose to sin. Why does Christ say: John 11:26 (KJV) And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die...

Yes, we've established His people He will not cast away are the elect of God, those who do His will! We were seeking to discern who His people are, and I believe we have fairly well resolved this issue. However you seem to need to know who shall die in unbelief, and why, or what they shall do...

It would not be beneficial for me to return to a previous reply without knowing what you consider to be error in my reply? Please simply show what you believe to be erroneously applied. Since you highlighted "do not add to His words", I assume you believe I have done this. Therefore you should...

Man consists of physical body of dust of the earth, and spirit breath of life, that which gives life to our body, and the two parts together became a "living soul." Solomon tells us that when our body dies, it is our spirit as an incomplete (without physical body) living soul that returns to...

Exactly David! I'm glad you brought in this passage, because when read in context we find the body that we in Christ are raised to heaven with after our physical body dies is not natural, and of the earth, but is supernatural and of heaven. Paul writes: 1 Corinthians 15:44-49 (KJV) It is...

How are the saints in heaven after their body has died and returns to dust? Do you deny heaven is NOT a physical place, but is a spiritual place, the habitation of God, Who is Spirit and the heavenly angels who are also spirit beings and not physical beings in heaven?
