    Exploring Jesus's Appearance in His Kingdom

    I will double check that as soon as I have time. In a rush this a.m. He arose from the dead having his mortal body. At some point to took that mortal body (as the lamb) and presented it to God in heaven. Then I think he returned to Earth to appear to many people ... then he arose in a cloud...

    My explanation for Gen 1 and 2 being 2 stages of creation

    I don't disagree with what is in scripture. I just think there is more to it than you and others are seeing. Oh well ... May our Lord Jesus give us all his wisdom and may we honor him as is due him. Amen

    Exploring Jesus's Appearance in His Kingdom

    The LORD God and his Son are/is the only good judge. The Father sits in his judgment seat in Psalm 82. There we see how he judges Satan and mankind equally ... They, who are lost, meet the same fate.

    My explanation for Gen 1 and 2 being 2 stages of creation

    This is where I first disagree. The reason I disagree is because I believe I have learned a more correct idea of the identity of The LORD. It began for me when I realized that when a name was changed in scripture it signified some important point about a person. Like Saul to Paul, Abram to...

    Was Gen 1 and 2 one event blended or two separate events?

    I agree and here is an example. The children of Israel were worshiping the LORD God who delivered them out of Egypt with great miracles. Aaron was God's chosen high Priest but when the people became worried about Moses delaying upon the mountain for so long, some among them felt like the...

    Exploring Jesus's Appearance in His Kingdom

    Why don't I just accept only what people have pointed out within scripture about how Jesus looked ... First I do often accept what they say ... but I also enjoy seeking things for myself. I like finding nuggets of insight. It is obvious from scripture that The LORD showed up and spoke with...

    Exploring Jesus's Appearance in His Kingdom

    The second chance was pronounced in a lot of words in Gen. 1-2-3. God created with a plan. HE explains the plan to Adam and Woman ... there would come a time when her seed would crush the head of 'his' seed etc. Then God tells Adam and Woman that all this would be accomplished for man's sake...

    Exploring Jesus's Appearance in His Kingdom

    I'd like to get back to the topic of the appearance of God's chosen image. Perhaps if I make a list readers can easily select at statement with which they agree or one with which they disagree. My thoughts added inside (...) 1.) There is only ONE visible image selected by God to represent all...

    Exploring Jesus's Appearance in His Kingdom

    Here is a verse you, Nick M, shared: 8 The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit. The verse is talking about The Spirit that Christ gives believers to secure them unto the end and...

    Let's try something new: Do we agree on anything?

    This is the best I can do to describe what I believe and do not believe: I do not believe God created things out of nothing but that he allocated things of himself to be in all things even while all things remain within His eternal nature/essence. I believe God brought forth things that were not...

    Exploring Jesus's Appearance in His Kingdom

    I agree with verse 8. That is because the Spirit is invisible.

    Was Gen 1 and 2 one event blended or two separate events?

    I asked for you to: List the "some of your (my) work" you single out as idolatry please. IOW ... let me try making the request more clear. I did state it in an odd manner. QUESTION: You have only given me a definition for the word Idolatry. I wanted for you to single out specific things, which...

    Was Gen 1 and 2 one event blended or two separate events?

    Funny you should mention idolatry when I worship the ONE living God only. Here is what is questionable about your accusation. Have you ever asked the question why the ONE living God commanded mankind to build no likenesses of him out of wood stone metal or earthly materials? I did and he taught...

    Let's try something new: Do we agree on anything?

    TOL visitors, The pronoun 'we' referred to more than the usual three or so. Would anyone else like to suggest something in which 'we' might agree regarding our God?

    Judge Rightly, sometimes it looks like only you, your buddy Right Divider and I are posting on TOL. Wonder why?

    Exploring Jesus's Appearance in His Kingdom

    Hi Nick. Being born again has to do with a process. It begins with our receiving the Holy Spirit which happens when we 'give our lives to our Lord Jesus' for he is the way we receive the Spirit in us. Once we have the Spirit in us here on earth we mortals are formed into the likeness of Christ...

    Exploring Jesus's Appearance in His Kingdom

    Here is hoping some of the visitors who come to TOL will chime in sometime. Some posters complain that I write too much for people to read ... same and others say I don't share enough scripture to validate my beliefs. Same and some others say they don't care what I'm seeing and believing. I...
