    Has The Falling Away Of The Church Happened?

    You've paraphrased to mix some of Jesus' comments together with some of Paul's...not that it greatly matters. The point is the same. But the great "falling away" that Paul spoke of refers to the fall of all mankind...which takes all of history to play itself out. His point was...that, not to...

    Church

    This is wrong from the first commentary sentence. Moreover, it insults the ability of God and His Holy Spirit to have complete control over all things by His great spiritual power. No, the word of God is very clear that He is building up His Church as [spiritual] stones. That the churches...

    Catholics

    You are not listening. Seeking Peter first instead of the spirit of God, has resulted in the long drawn out version - centuries, of being lead unto all truth by the Holy Spirit...instead of what might have been. That is not Jesus lying, that is Him being just to those who would rather have a...

    Not that again... Child, are you still resorting to what is seen rather than what is unseen of God?

    Church

    Very true. All the proper guidance is there...Paul even went so far as to elude to being completely silent in church. Unfortunately, only those with ears to hear what the spirit says to the churches, heard it.

    Are Adam and Eve.....in HEAVEN??????????????????????

    All of our days and that of the world, are as if written on the head of a pin in the kingdom of God. Time is created...aside from God, whom has no shadow of turning. Eye has not seen... what great advantage there is in store within the freedom of God's eternal and timeless reality that is to...

    I don't know why I even try with you... So...let me get this straight...based on your "physical glorified body" claim, you believe that one who is born again of the spirit of God...is born again "physical" - that the spirit gives birth to flesh? ...You need to turn in your keys. Oh, that's...

    Are Adam and Eve.....in HEAVEN??????????????????????

    No. If you want facts about time, look to Einstein. But I did not come by what I have told you by opinion, but by the spirit of God. Nonetheless, I have explained what occurred on that day that Jesus told the thief "Today". But you, you have not explained yourself. Perhaps you should. Just...

    Catholics

    Are you calling Christ a hypocrite? Because I have been telling you that you should seek the kingdom first of God - which was what He was proclaiming when He declared it to Peter...but you chose the world. Lied? No, but just as He allowed Israel to wander in the desert and be in captivity, you...

    Church

    You jump in the fight between catholics and protestants...and when I tell you the exact place where the problem started - you choose to ignore it. I am not surprised. That has been the problem from the start. Thank you for confirming your allegiance to the root cause.

    Are Adam and Eve.....in HEAVEN??????????????????????

    I follow your explanation of the commas, but you have not followed my explanation of time vs. eternity. You are mixing the timeline of the world with the timeless reality of the kingdom...not rightly dividing the two. Jesus was indeed dead 3 days, but it was at the moment of His death that He...

    Church

    As I said of Jesus' clarification to Israel regarding Moses only letting them put away their wives because of the hardness of their hearts...this just confirms the Holy Spirit's insistence on the early church suffering under the church fathers poor choice. But whether then or now, to claim that...

    The contrary original choice part. Which makes such a claim hallow and secondary...or worse.

    Catholics

    On the contrary, you read it the way you saw it - which was the flesh seeing the things of the flesh and not seeing the spirit, which was also being offered. Or worse, you saw both but chose the lesser. Nor do I blame you for your rejection of the spirit of God at that moment - but it was a dumb...

    Are Adam and Eve.....in HEAVEN??????????????????????

    Thank you. Now we can have a discussion. If one takes [time] into account (which your question implies). Then any such questions must begin with the understanding of just how time works...or it's just speculation and opinion against opinion, which has been the case until just recently. But now...

    Church

    Uah...you mean like the practical stuff? Yes, and I would agree with that too. But this catholic argument stands on more than what is practical in the physical world...they boast authority over heaven on earth, hypocritically after choosing against the spirit of God in the kingdom.

    Are Adam and Eve.....in HEAVEN??????????????????????

    That is not my doctrine, nor do I prescribe to it.

    Church

    Just as Jesus told Israel that Moses only let them put away their wives because of the hardness of their hearts, I am telling you that Christ only allowed the choice of the physical church...for the same reason. Nonetheless, when He offered a choice...the church chose poorly. And now you war...

    My response is based on a simple realization and acknowledgement that he is against God whom is spirit, and speaks against His spirit, whenever the spiritual path is brought up.
