Yes, we will be raised from the dead.

You should be able to find them yourself. I'll give you a hint. Start with Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel. Let me know when you're done with that and I'll give you a few more to look at.

The ones in the OT after Joshua. It's God's idea. Ask Him. You'd be much more likely to believe Him than me anyway.

The problem is that it's getting harder to find examples of a real man in the modern West. confused

Not sure where the Bible talks about humans having spiritual bodies in heaven. I see that about angels, but God made people earthlings.

As is your mind.

I think it might be more meaningful if you did your own research.

OK, finally I get it!

See Post #347. Subsequent to Joshua God made many promises, that despite Israel's disobedience, He'd still give them the land and a kingdom. Lot's of grace was involved, which is something that most people have a hard time understanding. People tend to be vindictive.

You seemed to have answered your own question there; the first resurrection and another after this period of time. That is exactly what I mean by two resurrections. I'll elaborate: The ones in verse 6 are not judged. They reign with Jesus. That is quite a bit different than those mentioned in...

Says who? What it the yardstick? I understand that there is symbols as well as literal verses. What makes all the promises of land (earth) symbolic and not literal? If you've already answered that, sorry but I am guilty of not seeing it. All you need to do is refer me to the post where you...

I agree with almost all of that, but what about the 2 resurrections mentioned in Rev 20 that occur after Satan is chained for 1,000 years? I don't see Rev 20:15 saying that everybody not born again before Christ returns gets thrown into the fire. If that's the case why bother with the judgment...

I'm not 100% sure of what Jesus was saying there and I don't want to speculate. But I do understand enough about it that does not appear to preclude the promises in Jeremiah 31 (and several other places) from happening at some point. I've asked this question in another post, but I'll repeat it...

I've acknowledged as much ever since you brought it up. You can't possibly be reading my posts. I've addressed the whole fellowheirs thing in about 3 posts now. And that says there is no future promise of a kingdom on the earth to Israel as per Jeremiah 31:31 how? I mean it's a great verse...

Well, what you said is like something a Pharisee or Gnostic would say. On the other hand, I've never accused you of being fleshy, unable to understand spiritual things, nor would I ever deign to do so. You have a judge, Jesus. I'd be loathe to take over his roll. So where does the projection...

Well, if your saying it's all "signified" then I can say that "signified" in Rev 1:1 really means it's all literal. Why not? What's your method to determine what's literal and what is allegorical in any book of the Bible?

Spoken like a true Pharisee! Or a true Gnostic? Whatever. Take your pick.

Good observation! I've actually seen that from the git-go, but I let just let it slide, though I finally felt it need to be addressed. I pretty much ignore all his, "your avoiding answering" mantras. He knows deep down where things stand. But one thing he's done is make me dig deeper into the...

No, that's not what the genitive case means. It describes the nature of something, not it's location. There other ways the Greek language uses to locate something. You clearly don't understand the genitive case. To you it means what you want it to mean, specifically whatever it takes to align...

Well, it'd be hard for me to reveal the future tense. It's not there, nor did I say it was. So now that I've answered your question for the 5th or 6th time, I'd think you can no longer falsely accuse me of avoiding it. But then again, it wouldn't surprise me if you did. But that's OK. I...
