We know that the things of the spirit cannot be seen unless they are revealed. But in the world, they are not what is, but rather a mere image. For even Christ said of Himself, "if you have seen Me, you have seen the Father." So, yes, the flesh sees the things of the flesh, and the spirit the...

Yes, confirmation: Sin is condemned in the flesh. Which is not to say, nor does it, that the flesh then can indeed inherit the kingdom of heaven, against the rest of scripture that says it cannot.

And yet the significance of His resurrection, has nothing to do His followers whose bodies will return to the dust and their spirit to God who gave it. It simply showed that Christ had attained power over death, a manifestation of something that does not go beyond the world, but a parable of...

The resurrection is a demon-stration of Christ's power over death. But it is His ascension that is the power to give life. They are different. One is of the world (a manifestation/revelation), the other is of the kingdom. One is of the flesh, and one is of the spirit: The flesh returns to...

"who will transform our lowly body that it may be conformed to His glorious body, according to the working by which He is able even to subdue all things to Himself." Good point. The "glorious body" of Christ is not a "glorified body" as men teach who glory in the flesh. The "glorious body" of...

Two things: 1) This passage was Jesus' sendoff to His disciples of that time. To them, as Paul also did, it was an appeal to be of one mind, having one Head, which is Christ. 2) But to the gentiles to follow, to be a disciple of a disciple of a disciple, with men following men, down through...

If you are going to lecture me about the bible, you might at least pick something that is actually in the bible. "Glorified body" is not. A just what would a name-caller like yourself call someone who does otherwise as you have...a G-not-there-stic?

So, after Jesus' critique of the seven churches named in the first century, being somewhat against 5 out of the 7, you are impressed, when He was not? Thomas Aquinas makes his first mistake in the first couple sentences! Paul not only said "It is sown in dishonor, it shall rise in glory", he...

We are suppose to develop an ear for what the Spirit says, not continue lapping at milk. Indeed, there is only one baptism. John the baptist baptized with water and so did the apostles as a foreshadowing of that one baptism foretold by John, as the baptism of Christ with the Holy Spirit. The...

No... Are you calling Him stupid?

No...that is the teachings of men. Jesus was NOT in His "glorified body", that is a non-biblical term. He was in His resurrected body. And, no, if we are in Christ, we are not spirits living in mortal bodies...it is no longer we who live, but Christ who lives in us - to live is Christ. In...

That moment was the very point when men should have stopped looking at the flesh and the things of the world, and started to look to the spiritual kingdom of God. But they didn't, and most still don't. Do you not get the logic of that great transition that was to save us, that "what is born of...

The word is defined as: "to behold, look upon, view attentively, contemplate." However, and not to be taken lightly, that part of their comment was prefaced with "Why are you gazing...?" It does not stand to reason that if what they had "seen" would actually tell them anything, that the angels...

This passage comes up so often, and is so, so, misunderstood: Acts 1:9-11 NKJV Now when He had spoken these things, while they watched, He was taken up, and a cloud received Him out of their sight. And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as He went up, behold, two men stood by them in...

Pay attention. I quoted Jesus in post #44. So...you are missing information. You are going to have to do better. I guess then that you also missed that I explained that returning "in like manner" does not mean in the flesh, but rather in the spirit. "The like manner" was a matter of the...

I quoted Jesus and the angel of the Lord. If that information was not given to you, fine.

Yet, if they were born of a fox and not a dove, they are a fox. That is not to say, that God does not have a provision for them - because He does. Nonetheless, a fox is still a fox and it is still correct to say "all have sinned."

Your translation is failing you. The angel of the Lord even addresses the men of Galilee with the idea that it would be ridiculous to expect to look up and actually see. Thus, the "like manner" which has been "taken away" from your translation is not all that was said and meant...but your...

Your words are filled with error from the start. The angel of the Lord did not say Jesus would return in the flesh, but "in like manner." Which apparently you do not understand because you have not considered what Jesus said of the Spirit, that it cannot be seen. So, now are you saying that...

So you say. But I am not interpreting, except in spirit...which is the process told to us by Paul. Whom confessed that he himself spoke in tongues, saying that when we come together, "If anyone speaks in a tongue, let there be two or at the most three, each in turn, and let one interpret."...
