    They will reign with Him a thousand years and making an unknown Greek out of the English New Testament

    Mankind is not a complete living soul without both body + breath of life (spirit) = a living soul. While alive on this earth mankind is fitted with a body of flesh that since the fall is ordained to die. Christ knew this when he said the life we receive when we live and believe in Him shall...

    Once again you and David, desperately trying to prove your unbiblical doctrine of deception ADMIT you do NOT believe Christ when He says whosoever lives and believes in Him shall NEVER die! I'm beginning to wonder if either one of you even know much less have entered the Kingdom of God? If you...

    I'm not in a hurry to physically die, and I abhor physical suffering in this life, but I do NOT fear physical death. Because I know in whom I have believed and trust the life that I receive through Christ's Spirit within me shall NEVER die. You seem to be overly in love with your flesh that is...

    I would present once again where in Scripture it is written that when our physical body succumbs to death we (believers), are raised a spiritual body to heaven where our spirit returns to God who gave it still a living soul, BUT it would be like talking to the wall!

    Yes, I agree once we have obtained everlasting life before we die, our everlasting life does not cease when we ascend to heaven a spiritual body of believers.

    Christ instructs us to pray "thy Kingdom come, thy will be done" because the Kingdom of God in heaven is NOT yet complete. The prayer is that is will be complete. When Christ ushered in the Kingdom of God it was still many, many generations away from completion and perfection. Which is why we...

    David, this entire reply makes guesses, assumes and thinks maybe. That's called an opinion and assumption that may or may not be biblical truth.

    Trump is dangerous - a Messianic Complex

    You are correct it is God's Word that sets the standard. But what you do is make yourself the arbitrator for who you think may or may not be pure of heart. You cannot know another's heart, only God knows what is in the heart of all mankind. And when it comes to political party members, or...

    I don't get it? You appear to be the one who does NOT believe Christ! Do you not understand that death of the flesh is NOT death for the one who dies in faith? It is simply a transitioning from this earth to the spiritual Kingdom of God in heaven. Are you really so unaware that John says he...

    Trump is dangerous - a Messianic Complex

    It appears according to your understanding of the Scriptures that only the pure of heart can hold the office of President of the USA. But you've already shown you don't really believe this because you believe Ron DeSantis should be President instead of this vulgar man named Donald Trump...

    NO, it doesn't! We were a physical, spiritual body of believers in life, and Paul writes that when our flesh is dead, we are still a spiritual body of believers ascended to heaven where we wait for an hour that is coming when the last trumpet sounds time/delay shall be no longer, when we are...

    Now, after explaining that zao means to have life, you add it "implies" in the body. Life is life whether physical or spiritual, it is still life. And when there is life (soul) it's because the spirit LIVES on after the flesh of believers has breathed its last. Again, this simply confirms...

    What's the difference between there shall be no more delay as some manuscripts have it or there shall be time no longer as the KJV has it? It still says when the seventh trumpet begins to sound the mystery that had been hidden shall be known. The mystery, as I've already shown you is that...

    Trump is dangerous - a Messianic Complex

    Did you hear the latest news? DeSantis dropped out of the running and endorsed DONALD TRUMP! That speaks volumes!

    They will reign with Him a thousand years and making an unknown Greek out of the English New Testament

    What would be the purpose for our spirit to be with Christ after our flesh is dead if it is without LIFE? There is no logic in believing our spirit remains with Christ after physical death if we are not spiritually alive! We are a physical, spiritual body of Christ as long as we are...

    This is what we refer to as reading our doctrine into the text. Where does John say anything about a body in this text? He doesn't! He writes only "yet shall he live:" John is showing us how he can see (Rev 20) LIFE after physical death for all who die in faith. They still have life (zao)...

    EXACTLY! No, we are not living in our bodies of flesh after we have physically died! That's what I've been repeatedly telling you, but you seem to want life in the mortal flesh after death anyway! These martyred saints have lived and reigned with Christ while they were physically alive. Since...

    They will reign with Him a thousand years and making an unknown Greek out of the English New Testament

    They cannot have lived and reigned with Christ in the flesh during TIME, which a thousand years symbolizes after they have physically died. Because NONE shall be bodily resurrected until the last/seventh trumpet sounds that TIME shall be no longer! The only way these martyred saints could have...

    They will reign with Him a thousand years and making an unknown Greek out of the English New Testament

    Correct! Only our spirit returns to God in heaven AFTER our physical flesh has died. It has always been the purpose of Christ to give eternal/everlasting life to whosoever lives and believes in Him. They shall NEVER DIE!

    They will reign with Him a thousand years and making an unknown Greek out of the English New Testament

    If we are not with Christ in heaven a spiritual body of believers there, why did Christ say NOTHING shall separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord? Your doctrine has us separated from the love of God we have through Christ once we physically die. I believe Christ when...
