    The greatest CONSPIRACY THEORY of all time: There is a God.

    Certainly the data listed above in the Original Post has not been considered to line up with Matthew 24. Which is kinda true, in that most if not all of Matthew 24 was addressing what would "shortly come to pass" after the cross (not really the topic). But, what the Original Post data does line...

    The End of the Age?

    Thanks for the summary! What these things ought to confirm rather, is that indeed, "there is nothing new under the sun." I mean...Satan and evil have been at work since the first week! And thank God most have thought their own times were the end--because, for them, it was. Think about that...

    Man's body not shaped in the image of God

    Specifically then... As before, I say again that your position above is conjecture on your part, perhaps by misunderstanding, but if nothing else, by semantics which is the confusion of language by God since Babel. It is obvious that what you have written is from your own understanding, but I...

    Man's body not shaped in the image of God

    We are counseled to endure until the end, and to hear what the Spirit says. You're not doing so good, expecting things to go the way of your own understanding. That's not how this works. To the contrary, we are to expect what we "do not expect"; and that the mystery of God which is called a...

    Soul vs SPIRIT

    A soul upon a shelf, is himself.

    Man's body not shaped in the image of God

    "Mystery" is indeed the correct word. Revelation 10:7 but in the days of the sounding of the seventh angel, when he is about to sound, the mystery of God would be finished, as He declared to His servants the prophets. It is straight talk that is now mysterious. It always has been--not because...

    "Righteous Noah, are we like him?" (Genesis 6:22-11:32)

    Indeed, it is a good time to study Noah...as these days are not unlike those days, full of violence and evil. Is that why you thought to begin the thread @Ben Abraham ?

    Man's body not shaped in the image of God

    Apparently it has escaped you that the common method of God is not first "plainness of speech", but mysterious enough to be rejected and the cause of the killing of the prophets. You also misunderstand. The order of the day is not "plainness of speech" common to the natural man and the ways and...

    When did Old Testament saints receive the Holy Spirit?

    "Eye has not seen"... But you have not included what is above the firmament, but only what is below (which is our physical universe). In other words, the passage speaks of both the spirit "above" and also the spirit "below", manifest in worldly terms using "waters" for heavens. Again, this is...

    Man's body not shaped in the image of God

    The conjecturing was yours. History is the proof. I was warning you. Meanwhile, I have said nothing out of conjecture. If you need further explanation--just ask.

    When did Old Testament saints receive the Holy Spirit?

    No, the physical body dies and returns to the dust. Don't let the enactment foreshadowing that was only visual to show or reveal to us what is otherwise unseen, fool you. That is what I have already explained. The visual simulation was only to show us what otherwise cannot be seen--but that does...

    When did Old Testament saints receive the Holy Spirit?

    I was not specifically addressing "bodily resurrection." But since you asked, the only bodily resurrection was the earthly/worldly foreshadowing bodies when Christ was crucified that the prophecy should be fulfilled, and Christ himself. Because of this the resurrection and ascension are often...

    When did Old Testament saints receive the Holy Spirit?

    Old Testament saints received the Holy Spirit just prior to "we who are alive and remain"--that is just prior to those who receive the Holy Spirit since Pentecost..."but each one in his own order." But I digress. The actual truth, is that all--all who are "in Christ" received (past tense) the...

    Man's body not shaped in the image of God

    A side note here: The above Exodus 33 quote “You cannot see My face, for mankind shall not see Me and live!” has an update since Christ and "If you have seen Me, you have seen the Father." The reality of Exodus 33 remains the same, except we who see Jesus with spiritual sight do indeed die in...

    Man's body not shaped in the image of God

    Preaching conjecture has a consequence: "There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth."

    I am the way, and the truth, and the life. Really?

    It is not written, "My sheep know my name", but rather "My sheep hear my voice." John 10:27

    If you think that the 1st day in Genesis was a 24-hour day, then bet on it

    It's both. To understand what the world actually is, is to understand that God has and does make manifest all of the above--literally. Meaning, if one believes the first day was 24hours or a thousand years, or that the earth is 6,000 years old or billions of years old...each is made manifest...

    Jesus Christ is come in flesh of man, not of angels

    Yes, and yet the error is that He did not ascend in the flesh, but said, "take, eat, this is my body" and gave it to the church...though many have not understood.
