Why is John instructed to write to seven churches a message from Jesus Christ, who is the first born of the dead and prince of the kings of the earth? Since when, where is it written that a remnant from ethnic Israel shall be kings of the earth? Why is John instructed to write to them (seven...

How can ethnic Jews of Old be the remnant called the priesthood of God since they died in unbelief? The priesthood of Old was never given to all the ethnic nation, not even a remnant, it was exclusively to the Levitical lineage, sons of Aaron. That's why so many could not receive Christ as the...

Who do you believe "ascended up on high"? And how was it that the one who ascended up on high "led captivity captive"? Why did this same one that ascended up on high "first descend into the lower parts of the earth"? What gifts did the one that ascended up on high give unto men? After...

How do you explain the majority of the nation of Israel dying in the wilderness in unbelief? As you are aware the Covenant promises to Israel of Old is conditioned upon their faithfulness to God. We know from the New Covenant what people of God shall be unto Him a kingdom of priests and a holy...

Who do you think the captives set free from the lower parts of the earth (hades/grave) are? Of course, as you've said, those whom through the spirit of Christ returned to God the spiritual body of believers, called "living souls"! Ephesians clearly shows us that after Christ defeated death and...

Can you show me where the whole remnant, according to you being ethnic Jews, are all called a priesthood? The office of priesthood of Old Covenant Israel was given exclusively to Levites, the sons of Aaron. Through the death and resurrection of Christ those belonging to the churches on earth...

The mortal, dead body of Christ went into the grave where it remained for three days. The spirit that gave His body physical life returned to heaven. Luke 23:46 (KJV) And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he...

Yes, when the Lord comes again the body of believers shall be resurrected immortal & incorruptible made alive again through our eternal living spirit that shall return with Christ when He comes again. 1 Thessalonians 4:14 (KJV) For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them...

Yes, he is, calling them all "strangers" on the earth. The "elect" of God, those He hath begotten by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead (1Pe 1:3). The letter is not limited to believers of Old, ethnic Jews the "remnant of Israel". It is to ALL "Who are kept by the power of God...

Why would those who already possess eternal/everlasting life through the Spirit of Christ within them need a physical body to have life? If we believe the life we receive in Christ by grace through faith is indeed forever (and it is), we continue to be alive when our body has died. We don't...

How does this passage prove when He returns the Kingdom of God shall be established on this earth? How do you reconcile that opinion with verses that indicate this earth shall be utterly consumed by fire when Christ returns? According to this passage on the day the Lord returns all that...

No man with the exception of Christ shall be bodily resurrected FOREVER before the last day when the last trumpet sounds that time given this earth whereby man MUST be saved shall be no longer! Any human bodily resurrected from the dead before the end is destined to physically die again...

Every living breathing creature upon the earth is a 'soul' as long as they possess the breath of life (spirit). They only become physically dead when the breath of life, that is spirit leaves mortal flesh. Once the breath of life (spirit) departs from the body of every human there is no longer...

Honestly David, I basically stopped replying to your posts and some others here because it became an exercise in futility. When you can prove that you understand what eternal/everlasting life that Christ promises to whosoever lives and believes in Him means, maybe we Amils can have a serious...

EXACTLY! Millennialists refuse to believe that Christ has given those of faith His Word! Once we believe we have been born again spiritually, and though our mortal flesh will perish, our spirit, being a living soul will NEVER die because the life we received in Christ according to God's grace...
