    Whoever Believes In Me Will Do The Works I have Been Doing, And They Will Do Even Greater Things Than These,

    The "greater works than these" comment by Jesus, was an announcement of a change in God's plans from physical to spiritual. All the miracles of Christ and those of God since the beginning until that time, were in the world and enacted by physical, natural, and fleshly worldly means. But Jesus...

    What is satan's strategy of Armeggeden?

    Indeed we agree on much, with few exceptions which I have explained. As for what I teach, it is indeed simple...but foreign to the thinking of men. I teach according to all truth as promised, which is from the perspective of God rather than that of men who look to times to explain everything...

    What is satan's strategy of Armeggeden?

    Again, there is no such thing as "spiritual flesh." There is the natural which is flesh, and the spirit which is not flesh: "That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the spirit is spirit." To call it "spiritual flesh" is to mix what cannot be mixed, and will not be...

    What is satan's strategy of Armeggeden?

    There is no such thing as "resurrected immortal flesh." What Jesus did was not proof of immortal flesh, but proof of His conquering death, and portraying these times in which we also walk in flesh from our resurrection with Him to our ascension of leaving this world. The difference which we...

    What is satan's strategy of Armeggeden?

    It is here: 1 Peter 3:18 For Christ also suffered once for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive by the Spirit. Again, the confusing part (which I explained as portrayed by the 40 days Jesus spent between His resurrection...

    Was wine non-alcoholic in Jesus's time?

    Please don't stop! But if you are so inclined, explain rather that just as wine was not the greater issue of that day, so too substance abuse is not the greater abuse issue of today. @Wrangler

    Was wine non-alcoholic in Jesus's time?

    Bravo! Yes, we have been speaking in terms of milk rather than the meat that Jesus was referring to. It is however true in both cases. But thank you for lifting your eyes up from the mire and the things of this world, to look rather to the things of heaven and our redemption. The Lord has...

    The thief on the cross misconceptions

    I have been explaining Baptism according to just what is written, but thinking as men think you have not understood. 1 Peter 3:21 There is also an antitype which now saves us—baptism (not the removal of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God), through the...

    What is satan's strategy of Armeggeden?

    Indeed, the bread of communion is merely a token or parable example of His body broken for us, taken as a reminder for us and a sign for those who are just coming into the fold. Likewise the wine. You have apparently misunderstood my meaning--sorry if I did not convey it well. I absolutely...

    Was wine non-alcoholic in Jesus's time?

    I was quoting: Matthew 15:11 Not what goes into the mouth defiles a man; but what comes out of the mouth, this defiles a man.” ...and, yes, the principle would appropriately apply to other things done outwardly. As for "drink some wine", that was not a Jesus quote, but a facetious comment on...

    What’s the point of it all

    In the heavenlies. This is what Jesus spoke of when He said “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father." Before and during the time of Christ there were miracles in this natural...

    What’s the point of it all

    Millions and billions do.

    What’s the point of it all

    This is death--our whole life passing before our eyes. It's a B movie, with an alternate ending of our choice: horror, or happy ending. The Usher is the Son of God, He stands before the preferred exist.

    Greetings From Wisconsin

    Good behavior. I've seen the movie. May you both be blessed for--A for effort!

    The thief on the cross misconceptions

    And there you go again back to your temple made of stone, debasing the spirit, preferring the example words over their spiritual meaning, while worshiping created things and enjoying the thick air. So be it. Yes, what I have told you is from beyond the water and the air and him who rules over...

    The thief on the cross misconceptions

    You gave yourself away in the first sentence. It is true (as you say)...kind of, that "The Bible does not define water baptism as a 'sign"...but only because the words are not literary, but are spirit. And therefore, you missed the real information. And if you do not believe that much of...

    What if?

    Bravo! Yes! And how did He live, saying "Follow Me?" He walk out His life unto the end, as a Son wanting to please His Father.

    I'm starting to think that the YLT translation is the only one to read

    It doesn't matter. For it is not the words by man's translation that speaks, but God who speaks to all in all tongues.

    Abortion

    Yes, something like that. The point that I have been making, is that to examine the medical or scientific finer points or mechanics of an "image" made of "clay" is rightfully inaccurate...because it's "clay" and not actually the real thing. In fact, clay and water, makes mud. Therefore, such a...

    Was wine non-alcoholic in Jesus's time?

    No, but it is as I said, "Alcohol is not the problem", and what Jesus clarified, saying, it is "not what goes into the mouth that defiles a man; but what comes out of the mouth, this defiles a man.” In other words, it is what is in one's heart that defiles or condemns them, not food or drink...
