    Under a curse

    The only need to ponder, is to realize that if we are "with Christ" and He "with us", then He (and we with Him) have not only been taken down from the cross, but have been raised up unto new life. In other words, it is [only] right to take up our cross to the point of death. But when we have...

    Is Christ now only a spirt or still a resurrected man

    "God is spirit." Obviously you have a problem with that.

    Is Christ now only a spirt or still a resurrected man

    So...you, Mr. Literal, can pick and choose what you take as literal, but no one else can? Right! Nonetheless, all things are a manifest declaration of things on high ("of the kingdom of God") made in his image and likeness. But, go ahead, pick an choose...

    Under a curse

    Ephesians 2:5-7 5 even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), 6 and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, 7 that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in...

    Is Christ now only a spirt or still a resurrected man

    Mark 4:11 And He said to them, “To you it has been given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to those who are outside, all things come in parables,

    Is Christ now only a spirt or still a resurrected man

    If I may interject: That is only true in context...and there are two: one of the world, and one of God. We are told that, not just the parables are parables, but "All things come in parables." In other words, what we, being of the world, are inclined to call "reality", is not the reality of...

    Is Christ now only a spirt or still a resurrected man

    Silly... Of course, if we "go to the Father" as Christ did - only that which is glorified will go. But some do indeed say, But what of Christ's body, and what of the body of the believer? Again, this too is silly... Foolish ones, we are Christ's body. Is Christ not glorified? And if we are His...

    Under a curse

    If we are coming to the cross, we should take it up. But if we are dying on the cross or not yet risen from the grave, there is a time where we do not put down the cross, but are taken down from it. If then, we have risen from the dead a new creation, the cross is behind us, never to be taken...

    Under a curse

    There is a problem that occurs even to this day, that comes from the varied truth from God during that transitional time of Christ. In other words, they preached to those of the Old Covenant, to those of the New Covenant, and to some teetering on the cusp. So, then, as we read of those times...

    Is Christ now only a spirt or still a resurrected man

    Indeed. I would venture to say that much of the arguments that we see in churches and places like this, is due to the flesh warring against the spirit. It would be nice to send a message to non-Christian onlookers and seekers, that this should be considered normal and to be expected, part of our...

    Revelation: The Seven Churches and Angels(messengers)

    Matthew 1:20-22 20 But while he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. 21 And she will bring forth a Son, and you...

    Revelation: The Seven Churches and Angels(messengers)

    We are one cooperative body including all of the above, Pastors, Prophets, Priests, etc.. The angels have their charge, as do all servants.

    Revelation: The Seven Churches and Angels(messengers)

    The book of Revelation is written to those who were and would be "servants" of Christ. Which then includes the letters to the churches, including the angel of the church of Ephesus. The angels have their charge to minister over the churches.

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    You call names. You do not discern the scriptures spiritually according to the word. You hold to the written word like a Pharisee. You don't know what you are talking about. You won't listen. We're done.

    How and who shall be saved ?

    Both are true. They simply come at the subject from different angles. It is the child of God whom hears of the kingdom and believes, who shall inherit eternal life.

    GOD'S PLAN ON THE EARTH, IN THE HEAVENS,

    Great! "Thy kingdom come on earth", is fulfilled in the words of the prophet Joel: “And it shall come to pass afterward That I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh;" On the contrary, "Thy kingdom come on earth..." is not an earthly kingdom ("My kingdom is not of this world") - that is, this...

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    For the third time: You say "literal" and "pseudo spiritual", "But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him." "Literally" is wrong. What those who witnessed Christ's ascension saw was...

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    Again: Mark 4:11 And He said to them, “To you it has been given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to those who are outside, all things come in parables, ...You are wrong. Shall we stop now, or would you like to admit that you are wrong and look again at the parables we have been...

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    Not only did I answer you, I answered you twice: Will you now deny it a third time?

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    Mark 4:11 And He said to them, “To you it has been given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to those who are outside, all things come in parables, Why do you insist on staying "outside" against the Word?
