    For Christians ... a question I've had for a long time

    And your proof that I have it wrong is?

    For Christians ... a question I've had for a long time

    What does your general definition of “sons of God” have to do with your claim that the angels God punished were individuals who were born and were around at the time if the great flood and who also also Jesus preached to between his death and resurrection? Where is the connection between the...

    For Christians ... a question I've had for a long time

    Spirits who died are those spirits who once were alive at the time of Noah having physical bodies who then perished in the great flood. Again, what does your cited verses in 2Peter, Jude 6, Genesis 6, and Job 1 have anything to do with Noah’s day and the great flood from which 1Peter 3:18-20...

    For Christians ... a question I've had for a long time

    20 Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water. (1Peter 3:20 KJV). How could they have not been spirits who died during the great flood when of all the souls...

    For Christians ... a question I've had for a long time

    HOW do you interpret the resurrection as only being the continuation of the spirit and has nothing to do with the physical body when Jesus went out of his way to show to his apostles that he had a living physical body by encouraging his apostles to handle him and eating with them? 37 But they...

    For Christians ... a question I've had for a long time

    Where do you get that Jesus could not do anything as a spirit between his death and resurrection? 1Peter 3:18-2p does go into pointing out that Jesus did preach to those spirits who were in some sort of spiritual prison, who were apparently had died back in the great flood. To be in a prison...

    For Christians ... a question I've had for a long time

    What kind of a question is when Jesus died was he dead or alive? That doesn’t make any sense. If there is a question about whether one is dead or alive one would not have claimed with certainty that someone even died in the first place. Also yes, your last question is confusing as well. Are...

    For Christians ... a question I've had for a long time

    42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption: 43 It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power: 44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is...

    For Christians ... a question I've had for a long time

    Okay, thanks for clearing that up. The event where those who came out of the tombs in Matthew 27 occurred on the day Jesus died which was before his resurrection. It would be great if we could have received those accounts firsthand as well as received accounts as to what happened to those...

    For Christians ... a question I've had for a long time

    You mean like how can a person who has died and who appears to have a body but doesn’t have flesh and bones like what the apostles first assumed when they saw Jesus after his death do anything like move around and communicate with other spirits? Where do you get that a spirit cannot do those...

    For Christians ... a question I've had for a long time

    I believe Jesus could do things while as a spirit after he died physically but before he was resurrected. If the apostles saw Jesus appearing to them and also believed he was not alive then they believed Jesus was able to do things (such as appearing) as a spirit having only his spiritual...

    For Christians ... a question I've had for a long time

    Well, what I posted is what this Christian does believe. 36 And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you. 37 But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit. 38 And he said unto them, Why are ye...

    For Christians ... a question I've had for a long time

    There are physical bodies and I believe there are spiritual bodies. Spiritual bodies are not touchable. Physical bodies are. For us mere mortals I believe we have both a physical body and a spiritual body. When physical death comes the spiritual body and the physical body separate. When...

    For Christians ... a question I've had for a long time

    Where did you wonder what I posted I was believing something symbolic? I was saying that’s what I believe what Jesus was actually doing between his death and resurrection. Put to death in the flesh I believe was referring to physical death.

    For Christians ... a question I've had for a long time

    Well, I believe some of them have bodies. For the ones that do probably would allow you to say hold their hand and you could tell for certain. If not, the angel probably would not permit you to touch or let you know he or she is a spirit only.

    For Christians ... a question I've had for a long time

    18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: 19 By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison; 20 Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering...

    For Christians ... a question I've had for a long time

    Do you mean the ones Christ raised from the dead during his mortal ministry such as Lazarus? If they are whom you are referring to, I don’t know other than although Jesus brought them back from the dead they were not resurrected in the way Jesus himself was. I believe that when Jesus was...

    For Christians ... a question I've had for a long time

    42 Now, there is a death which is called a temporal death; and the death of Christ shall loose the bands of this temporal death, that all shall be raised from this temporal death. 43 The spirit and the body shall be reunited again in its perfect form; both limb and joint shall be restored to its...

    There are about 1000 gods. Is that evidence against God?

    I’ve wasted effort at what? Pointing out how pointless your criticism is? You could still read it. You can still understand what it said, but you still had to go over and over and over and over about how you did not like how you had to read it. Pathetic. I’m not forcing you to read...

    There are about 1000 gods. Is that evidence against God?

    You could read what was posted. What’s pathetic is instead of just read it and move on you have to complain just because it’s not to your liking. Pathetic.
