Mike,The thing is that only created beings have bodies; even the naked body of a ghost; or the bodies of angels and demons.    Bodies are created and God is not.  Solomon even teaches us that a temple; much less a body can contain God.  Jesus can obviously not be the offspring of God’s body because God does not have a body; nor is that how Scrip…[Read more]

T;I was not speaking of all Jesus' teachings; just those about Sheol and Abaddon.

T,Scripture is clear that both Abaddon and Sheol are lands of the dead. At least some Sadducees acknowledge that the dead lived within. On the other hand they failed to believe in the resurrection of the dead as it is not explicitly taught in the Old Testament.

Mike,We both believe that the dead will rise up and praise God at the Resurrection.I seek to interpret Scripture in accordance to Jesus, teachings. The Jews of that time held to teachings similar to what Jesus taught.I asked about Abaddon as it is a place, possibly the abyss that the angel Abaddon, comes out of; while leading locus demons.…[Read more]

Mike,Put on the new man created within the limits of the likeness of God's righteousness and holiness.He is not inside the likeness of God's righteousness and holiness but rather his righteousness is within the limits of it as his righteousness and holiness does not fall short or exceed it.As I previously stated “qualifications” is a better word…[Read more]

Mike,I do not see Jehovah as having an outer self as he is the living elemental force. He does have a spirit which is the elemental force of love. He has a soul though his Spirit does not.

Mike,So you expect to be viewed as credible when you look at a definition from a dictionary as gibberish because you think it disagrees with you.Perhaps it is too intellectual for you but that does not make it gibberish; though it can be hard to understand. I also used the scientific method of proposing a hypothesis, testing the hypothesis for…[Read more]

T,The Age of Skepticism is a rather recent event as even the very existence of God is doubted by many. The unbelieving Jews believed there was a God and even a Christ; they just did not believe Jesus was that Christ. There way of speaking reflects those beliefs as ours reflects skepticism. The Greeks were also coming to believe in one God as…[Read more]
