"Then the Lord God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of Us, to know good and evil. And now, lest he put out his hand and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever”— 23 therefore the Lord God sent him out of the garden of Eden to till the ground from which he was taken. 24...

Very good explanation of the first resurrection! But there is no physical resurrection. All such elements are burned with fire and are no more. 2 Peter 3:11-13 The flesh is not glorified as some insist by their own love of the flesh. But no, the glory that is to come, is the glory of God, whom...

You are advocating for the status quo, for slumber and blindness, rather than "leaving the discussion of the elementary principles of Christ, let us go on to perfection" Hebrews 6:1 Not good advice. Certainly conjecture by those who do not know, is and has been a great problem. And for this...

It is God and the kingdom of God that is reality. To the contrary, He through us out--and His kingdom is not of this world. It is not the creation that is real, but the Creator.

I was quoting Jesus Christ. Don't know Helena Blavatsky.

What you have described, is world time being more and greater than eternal timelessness. See the problem? It's actually the other way around. It is world time that has restrictions and limits, and eternal timelessness that does not. The examples in scripture are numerous: "The Lamb slain before...

So then, no being guide into all truth, and no hearing what the Spirit says to the churches? Sounds like quenching the spirit.

Well, you mentioned God's "plan", and you are correct, it is in time: His plan to prosper us, and his plans to work all things together for good for those who love Him, etc.. However, the plan to "prosper" and give us a "hope and a future" (as it is written) are not speaking of the plan played...

I recommend your take it all up with God and His use of parables when talking to and teaching His children. Or expect the same measure as you have extended. Good luck with that.

This a great topic, something for all to consider. You see...if mankind can make a world out of light and energy, there can be no argument that what God has done by similar means, is impossible. Not only is it possible, but mankind can now kinda do it. It's like mankind is getting its...

No, not an effort to reconcile science with religion really, but perhaps to appeal to that level of reason. The error of the early church, was misunderstanding what or who Jesus said He would build His church upon--whereby missing the "soon" return of Christ in the glory of the Father.

Okay--I think it is a good time to AMEND my ORIGINAL POST: I don't think it is good to just go and edit it and give the impression that you all have wrongly responded, nor do I really think it needs changing. But I would like to give credit where credit is due. Certainly the scriptures are at...

I hear ya, and it's a decent analogy. I would still rather prioritize hearing directly from Him who inspires.

Obviously, fiction is evil. Plain and simple. (Just kidding, again) :D

Okay, thanks.

Yah, hate to break it to you--things are not what they seem. o_O

Hmmm.. Sad.

That's all good, but I don't see how it pertains to the discussion.

Just so you know...that has never happened. Just the opposite.

Are parents lying to their children with deceitful stories about the stork coming and the birds and the bees??? Just KIDDING! :D You all need to lighten up on the fairy tales. Nothing better to do than go after loving parents who have no intention of misleading their children away from God...
