How do you reconcile your opinion against the plain wording of Scripture? 1 Corinthians 15:22 (KJV) For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. Romans 5:12 (KJV) Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men...

Enoch was never aware (experienced) of physically dying because God "took him" spiritually alive. Because Enoch was faithful in life, God accepted or reserved his life spiritually, not physically. Which is what "God took him" means. Enoch was not physically accepted and reserved, but as the...

Hebrews 11:5 (KJV) By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God. SEE - Strong's Greek Dictionary 1492. εἴδω eido (eídō) Search for G1492 in KJVSL; in KJV...

Marty, our reigning with the Lord never ends. It is only time given this world that comes to an end. The reign of Christ began when He ascended to the Father and received a Kingdom, and though time given this world has an end, His reigning over His Kingdom is FOREVER! Therefore our reigning...

I agree Marty. Revelation 20 does show two different endings of the thousand years. We are shown what shall become of Satan after the thousand years expires, and we are also shown what shall become of "the rest of the dead" or "the dead" after the thousand years expire. This is not depicting...

Indication of a good spirit is when people behave like circus clowns????

I doubt any poster here would not answer 'yes' to all three questions.

Yes, I do notice this.

David, if you want me to answer your questions, I will be happy to if/when you decide to answer the questions I've asked you. Otherwise the discussions are one sided, and typically not very beneficial.

So are we born again SPIRITUALLY through the resurrection of Christ, Who is the "first resurrection"? Can you say you understand the first resurrection man must have part in to be saved is NOT PHYSICAL?

Since you acknowledge the first resurrection is the resurrection of Christ man must have part in while living to be saved, and overcome the second death, it is clear the first resurrection is not physical. Yet you also insist the first resurrection is physical??? That's contradiction! Until...

It seems your questions are distracting from the topic we were having. What does your question have to do with our disagreement regarding the first resurrection? You have yet to acknowledge the first resurrection is NOT physical???

It certainly appears they are! Because only believers would be faithful unto death.

The letter addresses the churches, and Christ says he who overcomes shall not be harmed by the second death. If they are spiritually alive in Him, then they will hear what the Spirit says. Those who shall not be harmed by the second death have part in the first resurrection in time. If they...

So why will you not agree the first resurrection is not physical, since you clearly understand who the first resurrection man has part in is? Are you still insisting the first resurrection is physical? Or do you now understand the "first resurrection" is to be made spiritually alive in Christ...

Since in life they have part in the first resurrection in Christ, they shall also be physically resurrected to immortality and incorruptibility when the last trump sounds that time on this earth shall be no longer.

Yes, David, we agree He has risen from the grave. Did you notice what Christ says regarding His spirit as He was dying? Luke 23:46 (KJV) And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost. While it...

Yes, I too am glad we have much agreement about salvation. But I think is sad that you seem not to understand that the life we received through the resurrection of Christ is the "first resurrection" man must have part in to overcome the second death. When the saints, both those who are still...

Then I don't understand David? If you understand the life we have in Christ is everlasting from the moment we are born again, why do you show such confusion regarding this spiritual resurrection life we have through Him? If the everlasting life we have through Christ is spiritual, and it is...

You are not rightly reading the words of Scripture David. Christ does not say that His coming the second time is the first resurrection. I am not calling Jesus a liar, you are not understanding the Scripture and reading your doctrine into the verse. The martyred souls lived and reigned with...
