I'm saying that might result from whatever it would take to change the temp at which water freezes by natural/supernatural means.

The temperature at which water freezes

Think about how easily even that could change, even if it resulted in the death of millions. No God in a test tube.

The Bible is an awfully voluminous work. I suppose it's possible you don't view the Canon as being divinely guided.

I fear there is a great gulf fixed between us in faith and practice. You know I'm holding back a lot--I'm new here. I have many things to say... And yet, because of the relaxed atmosphere here, I've been able to gain respect/regard for many people here, including yourself.

No proof of God in a test tube, BByrd. Emperical evidence for God Himself doesn't exist, and He is the Arbiter of truth. If we're talking basic apologetics, I confess I've got one foot in the presuppositional camp.

I gave the closest thing I could to a straight answer to the questions you posed. I don't give direct answers to questions which dictate terms or seem to be fishing for certain answer options. They often prove to be traps. This was Christ's way. When he objected to questions from the religious...

No, they're looking forward to it as well.

Christ isn't mentioned in dozens of the prophecies concerning Him, either. Prophecies often contain shadows and symbols. It's definitely a thing. I see you've come back to hijack the thread into off-topic oblivion.

Yeah, physical. Return. In like manner as His departure. Better than pie in the sky.

Superior to Adam and Eve in their original innocence, then?

No comment on Acts 1:11, eh? ;)

I try to avoid spiritualizing Scripture that isn't designated as such. Sometimes leads to spiritualism, I hear. :)

John 14 1“Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. 2In My Father’s house are many [a]mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that...
