    Another Premillennial absurdity

    The point is that none here will be convinced by your unbiblical OPINIONS, we now know that's all you have! Typical millennialist

    Another Premillennial absurdity

    Without presenting the verses from which you base your doctrine, there is no convincing or arguing. This is a forum for expounding upon and discussing the Word of God, make the case for your doctrine, proving what you allege from Scripture, or you may as well sit down and be silent.

    What JESUS Taught Us At The Last Supper = John 13;3-5

    Do you understand that Christ was according to promise is the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world? Do you understand this Covenant according to God's promise was enacted in heaven from the foundation of the world? Here is the vision of this Covenant, according to promise being enacted...

    Another Premillennial absurdity

    Another typical millennial avoidance of Scripture. At least most millennialists know enough to realize posting Scripture would prove they don't argue against Amil, but against the Word of God.

    The Atonement misnomer of Sufficient for all, efficient for some

    Actually Rg you seem to be conflating Christ's work as man's responsibility. We are saved unto good works, but we are not saved by our good works. Since salvation comes by the grace (first) of God, through faith (second) when we hear the Gospel and believe, clearly salvation is the work of...

    What JESUS Taught Us At The Last Supper = John 13;3-5

    Ron, you don't seem to accept or perhaps believe that Christ, through His atoning blood did away with the need to make an offering with the blood of the sacrificial animal again and again. This He did ONCE when He offered up Himself. By giving of Himself once through His atoning blood on the...

    What JESUS Taught Us At The Last Supper = John 13;3-5

    Yes, Bob, Jesus, the only begotten Son of the Father, did indeed have a body making Him human, but also the Spirit that gave Him supernatural life, making Him One with God, the Father Who is Spirit. The Spirit that gave Christ physical life is God. 1 John 5:6-9 (KJV) This is he that came by...

    What JESUS Taught Us At The Last Supper = John 13;3-5

    Yes Bob, Christ was bodily resurrected after His death. If the spirit that gives man life is not in His body, His body could not have been shown alive after death. The tomb where Christ was buried was empty, this proves He was resurrected in the same body that He died in. As further proof...

    What JESUS Taught Us At The Last Supper = John 13;3-5

    Bob, it's easy to say "we disagree", but unless you explain why, what is accomplished by declaring this? If you believe I am in error, how have you helped me to better understand unless you show why I am in error?

    What JESUS Taught Us At The Last Supper = John 13;3-5

    Bob, we are enlightened through the Spirit in us. All believers are instruments used by God instructed to show truth from Scripture. I'm delighted that the Scripture through the Spirit gave you better understanding. Praise God, give Him all glory. Pentecost marked the beginning of the...

    Is knowing what death is a comfort?

    Bob, mankind is created with a body of flesh, and a spirit that gives life to the body, and together mankind is a living soul. While it is true that the body of all mankind is destined to die, we read also from Ecc that the spirit in man, that which gives life to the body returns to God who...

    The Atonement misnomer of Sufficient for all, efficient for some

    If Christ became human, and by virtue of His humanity saved every human, why do some men die in unbelief? Are you implying the will of man is able to overcome the will of God to save every human? John writes that all who believe in Him, God gave power to become the sons of God, by the will...

    The man of destruction

    Again you confuse history with the last day of this age when the Lord shall come the second time. Are you, like the Orthodox Jews today still waiting for a Savior?

    The man of destruction

    Don't confuse the last day, when Christ will gather out of His Kingdom, which is represented by the Church on earth, the body of Christ, with history. Only Matthew pertains to the last day.

    The man of destruction

    Even a babe in Christ can recognize the Church on earth is the representation of the Kingdom of God. We understand because Christ has told us the Kingdom of God is not of this world, but within you. Everyone having been born again through His Spirit in us is in His spiritual Kingdom, and are...

    The man of destruction

    The Kingdom of God has always spiritually existed through people of faith in Christ, whether Old Covenant Church on earth, or the New Covenant Church on earth. The nation of old was the Church in the wilderness. But, just as the New Covenant Church has both good seed sown by Christ, and tares...

    What JESUS Taught Us At The Last Supper = John 13;3-5

    No Ron, the passage says Christ entered BY His own blood, not WITH His own blood. That was His blood poured out when He gave His life a sacrifice for sin while on earth. You continue to bring extra-biblical doctrine into the Word of God. Hebrews 9:12 (KJV) Neither by the blood of goats and...

    The man of destruction

    Does it not stand to reason that since Christ will send His angels to gather out of His Kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity, that His Kingdom must be found on the earth through His Holy Spirit within believers? When we read the context from Matthew we learn that it is...

    What JESUS Taught Us At The Last Supper = John 13;3-5

    This shows you have no understanding of the "first resurrection" Bob. Christ received dominion, glory, and a Kingdom that is everlasting and shall never pass away, nor be destroyed when He ascended to the Father in heaven after His resurrection. Your doctrine denies the spiritual Kingdom...

    What JESUS Taught Us At The Last Supper = John 13;3-5

    Christ did not ascend physically to heaven for appx 40 days Bob. Because when He ascended bodily toward heaven, He was seen by His disciples being taken up until a cloud blocked Him from their sight. Just as He went in physical form to heaven, so too He will return in the same physical form...
