..... and fret not because as Jesus promised at Matthew 5:5 is from Psalm 37:9-11 that humble meek people are the ones who will inherit the Earth (Psalm 22:26) This earthly inheritance is what the coming 1000 year reign of Christ governing over Earth is about.
This is a reason why we are all...
The Bible's three (3) heavens and earth at 2nd Peter 3:5,7,9 is Not biblically meaning God's Word and Law
2nd Peter 3:5 is about the heavens and earth of Noah's day ( the corrupted heavens and earth ) of OLD
2nd Peter 3:7 is about the heavens and earth since Noah's day to our day the ones of NOW...
Good point ^above^ because man's fall came 'after' he was created
Eve did Not even try to 'sneak' or disguise the forbidden fruit into a pie or something but Adam knowingly accepted the fruit from Eve
The day Adam was created Adam was Not a sinner - Gen. 2:17
If Adam had chosen Not to sin we would have inherited his sinless state
Because we are all born 'after' Adam chose to sin is why we inherited adamic sin and can't stop sinning
Some cremated and some remains totally gone by atomic bombs, besides some drown at sea becoming fish food
In other words, resurrection has nothing to do with our present imperfect bodies
What is important is that we are in and remain in God's memory, in His Book of Life
To me the Bible is...
Your post brought to mind 1st Corinthians 15:42-44 about sowing seeds
The seeds sown are Not made alive unless the seed dies first
In other words, death comes first before God's gift of life
Of course, verse 44 is not speaking about literal seeds
When a literal seed is planted in the ground...
Look ! sure evolution could be involved in lower forms of life but that does Not mean including human life
Adam was formed or fashioned from the existing dust of the already existing ground - Gen. 2:7
So, where human life is concerned evolution is Not part of it
I can agree about staggering ignorance of our religious friends because many are ignorant of what the Bible really teaches
Many clergy teach church tradition or church customs as religious truth instead of what the Bible really teaches
Jesus' words even exposed staggering ignorance because...
Yes, plants survive, and the correlation is that both the dead and winter's plants are dormant
Neither the plants nor the dead are conscious of anything. Both are in a sleep-like state ( Psalms 6:5; 13:3; 115:17; Ecclesiastes 9:5 )
Thus, what is called as death is but a sleep in the winter of...
Interesting that you chose the word dormancy
Because thinking of being dormant we can connect that to sleep, deep sleep
In Scripture the dead are likened to being in a deep unconscious sleep - Psalm 115:17; Isaiah 38:18; Ecclesiastes 9:5; John 11:11-14
So, like a plant in winter the dead are...
Evolution needed ? or warm sun and rain to ' wake up ' the plants
Evolution needed or the warmth of the Son (JC) and his regulating the weather - Mark 4;39
Right conditions to resurrect (wake up bringing back to life) the dead on Resurrection Day
Resurrection Day meaning: Jesus' coming...
By issue: ' thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is heaven ' ________________
God will for Heaven is: No war, No crime, No violence, No pollution, No sickness and No death in Heaven
So, if God's will is to be done on Earth as it is done in Heaven, then we are asking for those...
Seems as if instead of trusting the media people trust blogs
Campaigning seems to be commercial with billionaires $$$$$$$$$$$ wanting to or having their way
III World War or rather the final war called Armageddon - Psalm 46:9
The expected start signal is Not a date but when the powers in charge are saying, " Peace and Security....." those rosy-sounding words can lead people down that old primrose path, Not to safety but will prove to be the...
