    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    I've already shown you, but apparently you simply ignore or twist any verse or passage that proves you have little understanding of Scripture. I see you're again being obtuse! I realize you may not be the brightest bulb in the package, but even you I would hope are smart enough to recognize a...

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    Your argument is with the Word of God! You're making my argument for me. The FACT that Abaham also is of the God, among the living, linking the physically dead Abraham, Isaac and Jacob among the living, proves that physical death does not keep the faithful dead from being spiritually alive...

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    I believe the context of Rev 20 reveals the fate of ALL humanity. They are defined as two different types, those who are faithful unto death, and the rest of the dead who die in unbelief. John writes of martyrs who have already lived and died in faith (a thousand years, symbolizing time from...

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    The Old Testament saints were saved in the same way we are saved after the first advent of Christ. According to grace through faith. The Holy Spirit being with them, was not permanently in them, but Scripture shows us through John the Baptist the Spirit in those who believed the words the...

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    I would argue we are spiritually regenerated because we partake of Christ's resurrection that is the first resurrection of the dead to immortal life. Because of, or through Christ's bodily resurrection, our spirit through His Spirit in us has been regenerated by the power of God.

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    I agree! A few verses earlier Paul tells us whose resurrection was past. 2 Timothy 2:8 (KJV) Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    "This is the first resurrection" does NOT belong to the "rest of the dead"! It belongs to the blessed and holy "he that hath part in the first resurrection", "on such the second death hath no power". The dead are NOT blessed and holy, because they are not among the souls who have lived and...

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    Our spirit is made alive through regeneration, and that is spiritual life we receive when we believe in the resurrection of Christ, for He is the first resurrection of the dead, and the resurrection and the life.

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    We are born again through the first resurrection, that is the resurrection of Christ, not our bodily resurrection, but our spiritual new birth!

    Is the first resurrection past already?

    Do you think if you repeat the same line of reasoning ad nauseum that will make your false doctrine true? Paul just a few verses before says, "Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:" If Paul did not believe the first resurrection is...

    The difference between The Resurrection and the first resurrection.

    Paul just a few verses before says, "Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:" If Paul did not believe the first resurrection is past already why does he tell us to remember that Jesus Christ WAS (past tense) raised from the dead? HELLO, do...

    The difference between The Resurrection and the first resurrection.

    That's why I quoted Paul telling us that Christ has already resurrected from the dead! His bodily resurrection to immortality is long ago PAST! It seems it is only you Premillennialists who keep insisting a bodily resurrection shall come before the hour coming, when the last trumpet sounds and...

    The difference between The Resurrection and the first resurrection.

    Don't be obtuse! You know very well by now, we've told you often, the first resurrection of the dead to immortal life is Christ's resurrection. That's why man MUST have part in His first resurrection before they physically die to overcome the second death. It is in our partaking of Christ's...

    The difference between The Resurrection and the first resurrection.

    Deflection! The favorite ploy of Premillennialists when they are confronted with Biblical truth they have no answer for! None, but Jesus shall be resurrected bodily until the hour coming, when the last trumpet sounds and time shall be no longer!

    Indisputable proof that the Premillennial theory contradicts Scripture

    When we are born again our spirit has been raised to life, (made to understand things from above) not resurrected to ETERNAL life. Yes, by God's supernatural power of the Holy Spirit. The Bible tells us we were dead in trespasses and sins. We were not physically dead, but spiritually dead...

    The difference between The Resurrection and the first resurrection.

    You might see the resurrection of ALL who are in the graves as universal salvation, but being resurrected to life again to DIE the second time doesn't sound much like resurrection life to me! The DEAD NEVER have part in the first resurrection through Christ! Their (the DEAD) only resurrection...

    The difference between The Resurrection and the first resurrection.

    How is faith believers possess overthrown by saying the resurrection of Christ is past? The error of these liars and deceivers was not that Christ was the first to be resurrected immortal from the grave, and that it is through new birth through His resurrected life that man of faith will be...

    The difference between The Resurrection and the first resurrection.

    Was or was not Christ physically resurrected? If you have enough understanding of Scripture to KNOW He was, then you too would understand how the "first resurrection " is indeed PAST already!

    The difference between The Resurrection and the first resurrection.

    This is a ploy often used by Premillennialists! Ignore what has actually been said, and pretend you are being honest! You haven't even erred from the truth, as far as I can tell you've never shown any evidence that you've ever had Biblical truth.

    The difference between The Resurrection and the first resurrection.

    Premillennialism IS doctrine from the minds of man! This doctrine has been shown to contradict, and cause confusion, and has been Biblically refuted time and again! Like I have often said, there is no man so blind as those who REFUSE to see! Doctrine that causes the Bible to be contradictive...
