Hi Pierre,I almost went back and edited that part out, so as not to distract from the topic of the thread.  Is the question, “Did God Himself walk through the Garden of Eden?” close enough to the topic for us to discuss it here?Do any of you mind if we discuss this here?mike

I will be limited for time for the next several days and may not be able to back to this issue as I have other priorities at this time. I also plan to attend a funeral for my sister in another state in a few days and most likely will not be able to…[Read more]

Quote (Gene Balthrop @ July 13 2011,09:27)Here is something to chew on Mike…………No, it's YOUR turn to answer some questions, Gene.Gene, was Jesus able to COMMAND 10,000 angels to take his place on the stake?If so, does it sound like he was lessor than the least one in heaven, like all other men are?

When I just sent you your VERY LAST chance to post a retraction or correction, I just hit the “Warn” button on a random post of yours. The warning is the words I clearly posted in the pm, and has nothing to do with the words of your post.In other words, I just picked ANY old post of yours, and hit the warn button to make sure you knew your time…[Read more]

Quote (Istari @ July 12 2011,23:33)Yes, and I can guess who those 5 reports are from too.I think you would be VERY surprised to know who asked for you to be banned 2 or 3 weeks ago.  But “Report Posts” are personal like pm's, and I am not allowed to share all the info with you.Quote (Istari @ July 12 2011,23:33)It's strange though that no report…[Read more]

Bump for Gene:Quote (Gene Balthrop @ July 11 2011,07:58)Terricca………..Notice your post , Not one mention of God the Father, Now that might not seem like much , but is really is, Because that is what the teaching of the Trinity and Preexistence Separation does it move GOD out of the Picture and replaces Him with Jesus.Ah, so another one of…[Read more]

Thanks Irene!I think that whole fiasco took about 5 years off my life – just from angry stress alone!

To All,I will still give Istari until the time I log on tomorrow to either produce proof of me ever saying I could hide from God, or a correction of his statement – as promised.I have received 5 “Report Posts” about Istari just this week.  I have received probably 10 in the last month.  People on this site are begging me and t8 to remove h…[Read more]

Quote (shimmer @ July 12 2011,22:10)See this is where I don't understand you Mike. TERRARICA AND IRENE DO NOT BELIEVE that Jesus was risen in the flesh. You agree with them it seems. Because you are on their side.Shimmer,I agree with Irene and Pierre on almost every scriptural issue. I agree with them that spirit beings DO have bodies, which is…[Read more]

Quote (Istari @ July 12 2011,21:09)Ok, much more to say from the little I have said… That post was exactly 1833 words, dude! And that's your “little” post? Istari, you talk too much.

Shimmer,Does PAUL have a body in heaven now?

Quote (shimmer @ July 12 2011,21:27)Mike, ransom sacrifice, raised as a spirit only is all straight from the JWs.Do you suppose the JWs have cornered the market on this belief?  Are they the ONLY ones on the earth who believe it?  And if someone happens to believe it, does it mean they either ARE JWs or have learned it FROM JWs?See?  You can sa…[Read more]

Quote (shimmer @ July 12 2011,21:14)Mike,Do Angels have a Body? NO.Then why do you lump Gene in with you and Istari? Gene believes that angels DO have bodies.
