Sam, I worked as a janitor for a short time years ago. Believe me when I say, I REALLY appreciate the job they do. :o)

Exactly Sam. To deny that the whole church will be raised in the same manner as Jesus Christ was raised (which Paul explicitly explains is to be bodily) is to deny what the Scriptures tell us in 1 Cor 15. To deny […]

Where’s Donald Trump! LOL

ROFL That is too funny! “You’re fired!” LOL

“For Paul to have deceptively “changed definitions in mid-stream” –from using the word “body” to describe the physicality of Christ’s resurrection, to using the word “body” to describe the church’s “New Man” […]

1Co 15:3 For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in […]

LOL Ken!

I find chaism’s fascinating. Several years ago I was studing them (with my friend Minna) and it was amazing how the stories in the Scripture can be viewed as chiasm’s to further ones understanding.

I spent […]

What Reformed folk recognize as the Covenant of Grace which runs throughout the Scripture, beginning in Genesis. :o)

Great article Sam. In the HP view, they only have half the picture (sin-death aka spiritual-death) so when it comes to the NT they have to cram their ‘half salvation’ view into the whole of the NTstory and ignore […]

Greg,

I also have a hard time with a 40 year (or even less) millenium period. Even as an HP I was troubled by it. Your point that it is in direct contradiction to the HP ‘time-mantra’ is a very good one!

Doug,

I don’t know you so I don’t say you personally are intentionally trying to mislead anyone. My comment was a generalization based on my past as an HP and from the HP nature of the view itself. Let me […]

Greg, awesome! That is what it is all about – the love of God! Thank you so much for sharing this. :o)

That was worth the time!

I would add, Jesus Christ rose from the grave in His body. THAT is the definition of resurrection. I don’t NEED the Pharisee’s to define it for me. Jesus Christ already did. And Saint Paul agreed. :o)

Exactly. Self same body resurrection vs. corporate body resurrection. I can claim I believe in “the” resurrection but if I’m redefining it from what is traditaionally understood, then I am being deceptive unless […]

“Logic is not psychology. It does not describe what people think about or how they usually reach conclusions; it describes how they ‘ought’ to think if they wish to reason correctly. It is more like arithimetic […]

Never ate at Jason’s deli! lol

I heard about this movie and was very intrigued. Thanks for the review. I want to see this movie. I’ll have to wait until it comes out on NetFlixs though. :o)

You know, […]

Thanks Jason. This is good.

But that just isn’t true […]
