Jesus never sinned and still died. Death is a direct action of God only allowing his spirit he gave to men to be within in us for a finite time period. Genesis chapter 6. It is not necessarily a result of an individuals sin but a curse over all men.

Artizan,Do you believe Paul to be a false apostle?To answer your question I don't think that men are born with sin, but rather are born with the disposition to sin. Babies don't go to hell since they have not reached an age where they can be accountable for sins. Babies can't sin until they are old enough to understand and to be cursed by the…[Read more]

If that is the case then Satan can predict the future and can prophecy accurately. That is the case if Enoch is filled with lies and heresy.

OH, I see,You think something is fishy because John bowed to an angel. He wasn't worshipping the angel. He was bowing in fear, respect and awe.Angels either appear as normal men or as awe inspiring spiritual beings. Everytime an angel appeared in his glorious body, in the scriptures, men always dropped to ground.If the text of Revelation…[Read more]

Are you saying that you don't believe in the canonicity of Revelation? Is it because you feel it “steals” from Daniel?Well it takes from the book of Enoch as well. Of course Jesus taught from Enoch as well, but most people will never read it to find out if I know what I am talking about.If prophetic books are really inspired and are all describing…[Read more]

Good question,It can't be said that God “can't” be in the presence of sin. A better statement would be God chooses not fellowship or dwell amongst sin because he is holy.Satan came and joined the the son of Gods. God asked Satan where has he been. He apparently shows up to accuse us but does not “hang out” with God. Satan appears to be an…[Read more]

Isn't the reason Jesus was our sacrifice was because men were exiled from God and need a way to be reconciled? God is holy and cannot fellowship with sinful man. It makes no sense that God personally takes on the sin that causes the exile in the first place.Jesus is that mediator between God and man. The perfect sacrifice who is without sin and…[Read more]

Quote (Debra @ Sep. 29 2006,22:50)Hi Mercy”I do not permit a women to teach or to have authority over a man, but to be in silence.”This dosn't prove to me that women should not teach.  Pauls other references to women do not suggest this. As we know Paul welcomed women as co-workers with him in the Gospel,Paul in saying keep silent was not saying…[Read more]

“at any time”that tells me that Jesus performed this role throughout history.

You could be right, I honestly don't have a perspective yet formed. I suppose this is boils down to the debate over the state of the soul at death.

isnt “hath' past tense?how did Jesus do this prior to his incarnation in the vessel of a man?

Unless he went to proclaim rather than preach. To let them know that their evil plans of destroying the messianic seed line had failed.

Genesis 3:1616 To the woman he said, “I will greatly increase your pains in childbearing; with pain you will give birth to children. Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you.” In the Lord we are the same but in marriage the order becomes established it would seem. Men should otherwise consider…[Read more]

I was aware of the of that prophecy by Moses. I was hinting at the idea of is that all Moses said. That was all Moses said concerning Jesus?I do not really on what the church fathers taught. I searched the scriptures first and saw the connection and then later realized that it was a view shared by the church Fathers. It is only a secondary…[Read more]

Yes it was a very good analogy.

Are the spirits of men in hades or angels in tartarus he went to?

Quote (Nick Hassan @ April 17 2006,23:18)Hi, Jesus far more often calls himself 'Son of Man' than 'Son of God' in scripture. What does it mean? Does it mean he is really one of us or is it just a meaningless title?I believe one of the reasons he uses this title over and over is because it is the messianic title used so much in the Book of Enoch. I…[Read more]

I have heard some use this verse to say that women are not made is God's image but in mans image.I Corinthians 11:7-87A man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man. 8For man did not come from woman, but woman from man; 9neither was man created for woman, but woman for man.Here it…[Read more]

No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him. (John 1:18 KJV)At any time?hath declared him?When?At any of those times people thought they saw him or his angel?
