Reply to m273p15c -- The Pattern

Hello: 1) NO MARRIAGE: This was commanded with stipulatiions to be for the purpose of saving the people grief when the Roman War would begin to kill them off in great numbers. But then, this was a temporary message until the resurrection in AD 77. See: "Three General Resurrections" - 1Cor 15.22-24. ...

This Mortal Will Put On Immortality

You have asked about our "new bodies." This is clearly pictured in Luke 16; "Abraham's bosom" or else "Hell." Concerning only the saved, it is pictured in Revelation 4 & 5 & 7. But, we do not start a new life. Eternal Life begins on earth. If you do not have it when you die, then -- you will never h...

To: m273p15c -- God Pronounced Future Sins

To: m273p15c "Therefore His knowledge of our sin is "past tense", not "future tense. It does not define what will be, but acknowledges what has been". We are told that God looked down and saw sin (present tense); and He repented that He had made man (Gen 6). Then prophecy is God declaring future sin...

Praying to God's New Names

To the Forum: 1) "God" is a generic name, as is "Lord"; both applied to pagan gods and lords (Baalim). 2) But Jesus promised a "new name for God" and a "new name for Himself"; Rev 3.12. 3) God's "new name" is recorded: "Lord God Almighty"; Rev 4.8; and others. 4) One of Jesus' "new names" is "The Wo...

To: tombias & m273p15c -- All men are liars!

Romans 3.3-4: "For what if some (Jews - vs 1) did not believe? Will their unbelief make the faith of God without effect? Certainly not! Indeed, let God be true but every man a liar. As it is written, 'That You may be justified in Your words, and may overcome when You judge'" - Rom 3.3-4. NOTE: Trans...
