Nick,

And it is good fruit to be faithful to Scripture.

Those who live by the Spirit do not sin.

Nick,

Obviously you fail to understand the relation between corruption and death. For death came to the world through man. Perhaps this verse will help you understand.

1 Corinthians 15:22New English Translation (NET Bible)

22 For just as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.

So just as in Adam all was subject to…[Read more]

Nick,

Yes, and that is why all I can say is that you will know them by their fruit.

Nick,

Hi KW,

The Spirit is not the natural minds of men.

Yes, as it is the ideas of Spiritual men that are from God as they have the ability to judge Spiritual things.

Nick,

1 Corinthians 15:21New English Translation (NET Bible)

21 For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead also came through a man.

Nick,

It is the Spirit that teaches the spirit of Scripture.

Nick,

I do not think heaven is included as humankind was not given heaven and it is their sin that subjected creation to corruption.

Nick,

The creation that has been under futility is not specified and it also does not say it only involves the bodies of men.

I am convinced it is the whole creation.

Nick,

Hi KW,

So a different body?

I agree

A different body does not mean that it is composed of a different thing as all bodies are not the same as humans have one body and animals have another. birds and fish another.

Nick,

Is anything proof to you?

Is anything greater than your ideas?

The same to you.

That is what the Spirit is about. You test what you hear, believe, and do with the Spirit. Why do you not know this?

Nick,

HiKW,

If Jesus in heaven is still flesh and bone does he need to go to the bathroom?

Are there loos in heaven?

Scripture does not say and since we will be like angels in reproduction there may be other changes.

Nick,

Hi KW,

You mean the one seated on the throne? rev21

You may hope for the same old body but better promises await some.

Throne is the correct word, horse is the wrong word.

It is not the same body it is a changed body as it has been freed from being subject to frustration and corruption. It is not a body that is subject to nature of…[Read more]

Gene,

Hebrews 1:14 is not proof as spirit can also mean ” a person having a character or disposition of a specified nature “. You can claim the Spirit led you do believe that it means a supernatural creature like an elf or goblin but not like a ghost.

What are you…[Read more]

Nick,

The letter kills but the spirit gives life,2 Corinthians 3:6.

Nick,

You did better in another thread and I answered it there.

Nick,

The one on the horse states he is making everything new and Scripture teaches us that is done by freeing creation from frustration and corruption.

Nick,

Nick,

Hi KW,
Yes the body alike to the man from heaven is not of earthly origin

The body comes from the mind of God and he is in heaven. The mortal body became mortal because of the sin of humankind.

Nick,

You claim to be guided by the Spirit but turn to experts and linguistics when challenged.

I turn to experts and linguistics when learning to speak English property but that does not mean the Spirit is not there teaching me by using them as a tool. God provides what he chooses in the way he chooses and only the foolish reject it. It is…[Read more]

Nick,

Hi KW,

IF is an equally suitable word.

It does not imply uncertainty IMO but shows it is not too much of an issue either way.

Not all die

I have always seen it as a conditional statement but then my background is in programming.

I do not believe he was concerned as Paul knew God would just make a new one for him after all God…[Read more]
