No...it does not say that, and you are leaving out the other scriptures that say that the flesh cannot inherit the kingdom of heaven, You have the scriptures disagreeing with one another, just as you have us disagreeing, but only one thing is true. The "like manner" was not in the flesh, but in...

That is not what it says - you are assuming the meaning incorrectly.

Oh, I see...you do not believe that if one hears Jesus at the door knocking and opens to Him, that He comes in to them (as He said), and therefore you don't count that as Him returning, but are waiting for another. Well...that would make all that you are saying non-scriptural. Thus, fulfills...

No, I was just busy at work and at home. But you might check out: Worthy Christian Forums

I did not say that the saints would not be ruling when Jesus returns...you assumed it. On the contrary, I said that they would. I also did not say that it would not be the same earth...you misunderstood me. On the contrary, I referred to the time of "those of us who are alive and remain" on the...

In this old earth, yes. In the new earth, no. The Corinthians not reigning at the time Paul wrote to them speaks of them at that time, not of all.

Okay, we were talking about the earth lasting forever...now you have brought up more to sort through. One thing at a time: 1. I did not mean that you said there was a contradiction in the scriptures, but rather that it does not work for us to pit one scripture against another in defense of our...

It may be easier to understand just how this all works if you were to ask whether a person who is simply wrong (about anything) knows they are wrong. The answer is, they don't, but should, because if they are wrong they would have no confirmation or proof. But the one who knows something that...

Both good and evil, and truth and untruth, have their children. All things, right or wrong are manifest from on high as a testimony for or against each in the judgement. It is the spirit in us that directs us to our rightful eternal fate.

Unfortunately, it is a common human behavior to wake up in the middle of a world we know nothing about, take a snapshot, and then begin imposing our great newfound brilliance upon others without considering all that we don't know, but filling in the blanks by extrapolation. Kinda science-like.

There is no contradiction in the scriptures, so our disagreement is silly. The reason there are two possible ways to consider what is written...is because it speaks of two earths, the old and the new. Grammar does not explain away the use of parable meaning. On the contrary, it is purposely...

The answer to this has been updated in the leading unto all truth by the Holy Spirit since Christ ascended on high, according to His promise: 1 John 5:7 "For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one." 1 John 5:8 "And there...

Indeed, the different ways that people interpret these matters can be confusing. But at the heart of what is intended for the church is quite simple. First, men are not above women in authority, but rather in responsibility. They are not actually above women, but are assigned a role above...

So be it.

That is all well and good...but faith exists only until such time we have "all truth." Do you mean to pass on "all truth" which Jesus promised?

That of course is the common understanding. But like the common understanding of Christ's first coming...it is far from accurate. The problem is that time is an illusion (even scientifically), a created image of what is otherwise timeless in God. If many need to wait unto the end to know this...

@gadar perets Now that we have walked through these defining points I would like to clear the air. Our difference is simply perspective. In the world we see things much as you have described, and it is not wrong of you to describe things as you have. But as we go on to all truth our...

Let your first confession, therefore, be that you do not believe that in the presence of God there is no sin, that if one is in Christ and Christ in Him, Christ has no power over sin, that it is not finished.

Sorry, but you are attempting to "save your life" and are "loosing" it. And this you do because you do not hate in the way Jesus meant, because you have not understood. Instead, you have dismissed it in unbelief. But this I do not say because I interpret the words "literally", but rather with...

One is an advocate and one is an accuser. Which one are you, that you would accuse those who are One with God of sin?
