T C…… YOUR THE ONE  trying to make Jesus different the his human brothers and sisters not us.   You say things like God was “in” him and he was “in” God , as if God is not also in us true believers, Jesus said he was in us and we are in him also, Paul clearly said ” know you not  that your “body” is the temple of the living God” . GOD the Fat…[Read more]

TC……Nick is right in this.  God has spoken to many .  Jesus was addressing just those people in front of him there.  The real question is why are you trying so hard to transfer the Glory of God the Father , to The man Jesus our brother.  When are you going to see Jesus as a fellow human beibg, whom God the Father chose and anointed Ted him to…[Read more]

T8…..Paul never said that is what happens , he said he would “rather be” absent from the body and be present with the lord. That is not saying thats what actually happens. People assume that, just more pagan after life infusion into scriptures.

T8…..read Heb 11:13-40,  Verses 39 says…..And these all, having obtained  a good report through f…[Read more]

Anthony…..We are bodies, that have breath of life in us, making us a “living” soul, spirits are not bodies or souls, they are what is “IN” the “soul” body. The leave when the “living” soul dies becomes a dead soul,  and goes to coruption. The spirits return unto him who gave it.   Just that simple.  No secret mystery still alive after death stu…[Read more]

T8…..what do you do with this scripture?

Isa 44:24-26….This says the LORD. thy redeemer; and he that formed you from the womb, “I”, am the LORD that makes “ALL” , that stretches  forth the heavens “ALONE”; that spreads abroad the earth “BY MYSELF”; 25, That frustrates the tokens of liars, and makes devices mad; that turn wise men backward,…[Read more]

Nick…..what Jodi has said is true, God gives understanding buy his spirit to all his creation, to one degree or another by measure .  Not all are full of the spirit of God, like Jesus, and Steven, and a few others recorded in scripture. But we all have our portion from our Heavenly Father,  God can add or subtract spirit from anyone he choses t…[Read more]

Anthony……ADAM did die in the “day” he “ate” (took to produce the “fruit”,  of good and evil from self, as a tree does) . The problem is, what is a “day” in GOD’S time?

Peter tell us, “a thousand years is as a “day” with God and a “day” is as a thousand years.  Now who has not died within that day time period of God’s time. So you see all do d…[Read more]

Nick…..Yes those who believe in Christ Jesus have passed from the “judgement” penalty  of eternal death,  to the gift of eternal Life.

That all true, so when we do die, we know that we have a resurection of life waiting for us, as Jesus told us, “though he “DIE” yet shall he live”.

Your idea of a “believer” never can “experience” death, is n…[Read more]

Anthony…….your blood has life in it, how do you think our blood “knows” how to maintain our bodies with life, it is the breath /spirit of God that keeps our “bodies” which are us going,  Remember what it say, “life is in the blood” the blood has the DNA built into it, to maintain our physical functioning bodies, that came from the dust of the…[Read more]

Nick…..Jodi is right,  our souls can die and decay and parish, that is exactly what happens when we die, the breath of life/the sustaning spirit of God leaves us and our dead soul/body,  returns back to the ground from which it came, just as scripture says.

We no longer exist as a living soul, untill God resurect us and reforms our bodies and b…[Read more]

Jodi…..AMEN that’s the truth.

Peace and love to you and yours. ……..gene

T8……very good post brother. Zpe makes sence. See what deveoples from this.

Anthony and Nick… where is say ‘and the “dead” were judged, is that saying that they still are dead when they are being judged.

Peace and love to you and yours. ……..gene

Miia…..I used to hunt animals years ago, now I don’t want to hunt any more, I love animals was raised on a farm we had cattle, chickens, geese etc,  I love cattle they are the most gentle creatures . I think the animal creation is amazing and they reflect to us the mind of God our Father.

Peace and love to you and yours. ……gene

Nick…..If God can take the stoney (hard heart)  out of us, and give us hearts of flesh (soft hearts) and write his laws on our hearts, can he not do that for all?  Espically if he is not will that any parish.

I know at this time salvation is about those God foreknew and has elected to save, as the first fruits, but that is not to say the rest w…[Read more]

Nick….Most people never even heard the offer, much less had a chance to accept it, brother.  ANTHONY IS RIGHT ON THIS,  the language  has been changed in our text, to read for ever and ever.  Nick if God is not willing any parish, there is a good chance none will. Not because who we are , but because who he is. God himself creates us unto sal…[Read more]

Anthony……indeed those who die are truly DEAD, waiting  for the resurection, “that will witness the redemption of our “BODIES”.  As the Apostle Paul said, …Rom8:23

Rev 1:18, Jesus said, “I am he that lives, and was “DEAD”.

( nek-ros’ ),  from an apparently primary word (ve’kus, nekus)  a corpuse ; dead (literally or figuratively; also as…[Read more]

Anthony…..right, there exists no such thing as a “freewill” that word is an OXYMORON , because all will are drive by what is influencing them the most, far from being free.

Good Job ANTHONY.

Peace and love to you and yours. …….gene

Miia…..what about God telling Abraham to sacrifice his son Issac?  HE SUPPLIED A goat instead of allowing Abraham to sacrifice Issac. Perhaps it is a matter of Faith,  then again sin does destory life, and life is in the blood it says, so perhaps it’s a matter of for life for life.  Also seening something innescent  like a lamb die for som…[Read more]

To All……No one has risen yet from the grave they who have died are still dead, if they are of the true Faith, they shall attain unto the  first resurection,  “that will witness the redemption of their BODIES”,  JUST AS THE APOSTLE PAUL SAID.  Jesus was  the first one resurected from the dead,  They who died will experience the exact same resur…[Read more]
