    Jesus - First Born?

    YHWH sent His messenger to prepare the way for Himself. John cried out in the wilderness, "make straight the way of YHWH". Now this does not "prove" that Jesus was God but it helps and certainly is more accurate than what you were quoting. Mark 1:2 As it is written in Isaiah the prophet,[b]...

    Jesus - First Born?

    No, Brian2. YHWH was sending His messenger ahead of the Lord Messiah. You know this because it’s all played out in John the Baptist paving the way for the Messiah, Jesus Christ: John, crying out in the wilderness: ‘make straight the way of the Lord!’ Brian2, you know this to be not at all what...

    “I and the Father are one” proves the Trinity?

    Ephesians 4:8 "Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men." now a little something for YOU from Daniel Daniel 7:13 "I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient...

    The Greatest Commandments

    The promise of the Holy Spirit is for us now in the last days: ““‘And in the last days it shall be, God declares, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh, and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams; even on my...

    Samuel:Ghost or Demon?

    I believe a ghost is a spirit free in the world. Samuel was a spirit sleeping in the earth. There is a difference.

    Samuel:Ghost or Demon?

    It seems to have been the ghost of Samuel.

    Samuel:Ghost or Demon?

    It was a demon or an angel, but it cannot be Samuel if he was already dead. Or the story is to be understood symbolically and not literally.

    Samuel:Ghost or Demon?

    Maybe neither. Maybe he's talking to Samuel through a window in time. In 1Samuel 9:15 the future is revealed to Samuel, so that is an example of information being given to Samuel ahead of time. In which case it could be that Saul manages to speak to Samuel through a rift in time. Another...

    In 1 Samuel 28:1-19 Saul tells the witch of endor to summon samuel.And in verse 13 it looks like samuel's ghost is coming out of the earth.And in verse 15 it says Samuel was talking to saul.It also says Samuel was mad at being summoned up.And in Ephesians 4:8-10.It looks like Jesus took Samuel...

    Did jesus take the people under the earth to heaven?

    I believe Jesus was buried in a tomb. That would constitute descending into the earth. I believe Sheol is just the grave and everyone goes into it the same way.

    Did jesus take the people under the earth to heaven?

    Paul is quoting Psalm 68:18, which isn't talking about dead people. If Samuel was dead, which the Bible says he was, then who was talking? If your answer is Samuel, then you believe the dead can talk, which would mean that you disagree with Ecclesiastes 9:4-6. True?

    Did jesus take the people under the earth to heaven?

    Ephesians 4:8-12 King James Version 8 Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men. 9 (Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth? 10 He that descended is the same also that ascended...

    Did Christianity Start with Jesus?

    The Saoshyant born of a virgin idea does not appear at all in Zoroastrianism until Book 10 of the Denkard. See verses 15-18. Book 7 of the Denkard refers to historical events in the history of the Persian people including the 7th century invasion of Persia by the Muslims See item 7 in the list...

    Is Isaiah 14 about the condition of the literal afterlife?

    It is not clear. But John 3:13 is very clear. No man has ascended to heaven. What is your view on that?

    Is Isaiah 14 about the condition of the literal afterlife?

    I am afraid that verse is about Jesus, who of course went to heaven because he came down from heaven. John 3:13 is talking about other normal people. Got any verse that says they go to heaven?

    Jesus Said "It Is Finished"

    I have read your post very carefully. I think there is a lot that we agree on. Like I have said to Trailblazer, I think our difference is in "spiritual death". It seems that both of you believe that ALL souls (spirits) are immortal. I do not see this in the Bible. I see immortality as a GIFT...

    Jesus Said "It Is Finished"

    What About "Out-of-Body Experiences"? by Dave Miller, Ph.D. (excerpt) Does the inerrant Word of God have any insight into this question? Yes, it does. The Bible teaches that God places within each prenatal person at conception a spirit that makes each individual a unique personality that will...
