44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.Show that in the Bible, please. Let's always use scriptures and verses to get clear understanding.
Rebel how so?Yes, but the only people that will reign with Jesus Christ in the millennial are those that obey Acts 2:38. At least per our dispensation we have to follow it.
Rebels cannot reign with him.
If you get baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins, you will be in good standing with God and part of the first century church. You’ll also qualify yourself to be in the millennial reign as a judge over the Earth. That’s what you want to do.And?
Rebelling by not being baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins. 90% of Christians are rebelling.Rebel how so?
I'm sure I already quoted those verses, but the example is Jesus was a living soul and died and became a quickening spirit, which is born again. Paul explain in 1 Corinthains 15: 45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. 46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual. 47 The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven.44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
You are a living soul. I am a living soul. Jesus is a quickening spirit. He was made a quickening spirit regarding his resurrection.
A quickened spirit is a spirit that is raised up.I'm sure I already quoted those verses, but the example is Jesus was a living soul and died and became a quickening spirit, which is born again. Paul explain in 1 Corinthains 15: 45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. 46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual. 47 The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven.
So when Jesus died and born again he had a different Body and can do other things like pop up from nowhere, etc. Look at what 1 Peter says in Ch 1: 23 being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever. Paul confirm what Peter says the same thing in 1 Corthinan 15: 42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption: 43 It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power: 44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
what about Jesus, He was a living soul...for He was fully Man.44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
You are a living soul. I am a living soul. Jesus is a quickening spirit. He was made a quickening spirit regarding his resurrection.
Yes,, but he was made a quickening spirit after he was resurrected by God. None of us were made a quickening spirit. We don’t quicken anything. We are quickened.what about Jesus, He was a living soul...for He was fully Man.
Yes He did spirtually that day and so did the whole world...It is apparent that GOD shed His Grace upon Him in the later years.. Not uncommon.
In otherwords, the resurrect defeated Death for all those He Died for.
Interesting choice of words.
So we labour in Christ keeping his Commandments which are spiritual, even though we in the body doing Jesus will physically. We not physically with the Lord, but our minds are spiritually with the lord.
But Jesus was not necessarily born again after he was resurrected
I have been in the Pentecostal lifestyle for 45+ years.
You should take a gander at JOHN 3:3 - Jesus answered, and said unto him, Verily, verily I say unto thee, except a man be borne again, he cannot see the kingdom of God
He went to the Cross for the entire world... not just for a select few as the calvinist cult falsely teaches.
True none the less.
And when a true Christian dies... they go to be with the Lord
They do NOT go in to "soul sleep" as some of the cults claim. View attachment 53990
I agree, but for some reason you are not seeing my point, or acknowledging it.A quickened spirit is a spirit that is raised up.
A quickening spirit is a spirit that raises up.
Jesus was made a quickening spirit.
The first Adam wasn’t.
Totally opposite spirits.
Yes and He is what we will become for we sill see Him as He is for we will be like Him.Yes,, but he was made a quickening spirit after he was resurrected by God. None of us were made a quickening spirit. We don’t quicken anything. We are quickened.
You’re not making any point. That’s why I don’t see it. A quickening spirit quickens things. We are not quickeners. Jesus is the quickener. I think you’re reading into the verse something that’s not there.I agree, but for some reason you are not seeing my point, or acknowledging it.
You might say, Jesus “evolved” into an omnipresent body after his God resurrected him from the dead.I'm way late to this discussion but I'm inclined to think that Jesus is the one person in all of human history who was never "born again".
Jesus was resurrected into a glorified body. He wasn't "born again", at least not in the way Jesus described it to Nicodemus.
