So where is it? And, should not a theological discussion contain a scripture based rebuttal not an emotional red herring? Provide me with your favourite verse that denies the possibility of our spirits pre-existing our conception on earth or even hints at it being impossible which I will...

You have a special insight that this true? It seems illogical to me in light of the word SOW (not: create) in Jesus own words explaining the metaphor of the parable of the weeds: Matt 13:36 Then Jesus dismissed the crowds and went into the house. His disciples came to Him and said, “Explain to...

Some more verses that could indicate some part of the person survives after death: [Act 7:59-60 KJV] 59 And they stoned Stephen, calling upon [God], and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit. 60 And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when...

Every interpretation of the meaning of a verse is an opinion... The KJV opinion of Job 38:7 is that the angels were singing the praises for GOD when it clearly says ALL THE SONS OF GOD sang, not angels. The KJV is also of the opinion that the word RETURN in Psalm 9:17 should actually be its...

All I know for sure is that it says "ALL the Sons of GOD!" that is, if you are a Son of GOD by creation, ie, in HIS image, were you there?

I understand... But to understand my thinking, a look at Job 38:7 which is about the creation of the physical universe, tells us there were witnesses who sang HIS praise at this proof of HIS divinity and power: ...while the morning stars sang together and all the sons of God shouted for joy...

If this pe-Cambridge edition of the bible is supposed to represent MY references to pce interpretation or content, then it misses the mark by miles. I personally use PCE to refer to the Pre-Conception Existence Theology that I am currently very interested in and which I have been discussing...

Lev 16:4 ...these are the holy garments. EX 40:9 Take the anointing oil and anoint the tabernacle and everything in it; consecrate it along with all its furnishings, and it shall be holy. 10 Anoint the altar of burnt offering and all its utensils; consecrate the altar, and it shall be most...

GOD has told us many times that no one dies (suffers, goes to hell) for the sins of another. Deut 24:16, Jeremiah 31:30, Ezekiel 18:20. It is an injustice to account a person guilty of the crimes of another...this doctrine blasphemes GOD's goodness and righteousness with these assertions.

Plug Romans 5:19 into Strong's concordance and you will find that one of the meanings of καθίστημι, kathistēmi - MADE (ie, created to be) is to show or exhibit one's self or to come forward as already a sinner. Thus this verse is NOT PROOF that the GOD who is light creates HIS bride as evil...

If this is ALL that sanctification means, ie no choice of the individual involved, only GOD's choice, then why were some angels chosen for sanctification, ie holiness (same meaning), and not all?? Mark 8:38 If anyone is ashamed of me and my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the...

Yes, true and it is how an inanimate object can be called holy though it has no volition to choose holiness. But to be holy like the LORD our GOD is holy is to be holy by our free will, our volition, and is only fulfilled when we are by our own volition sinless, to never sin again due to being...

Perfect means complete and Christians are NOT by any means perfectly sanctified in righteousness or Heb 12:5-11 is a lie. I like your theology but you are too loose with the words. If we are perfect in HIS sight HE has no need to train us in righteousness by harsh discipline. Until we are holy...

I agree with you. Internet Poster ignores the one situation where we have just such a choice, ie, then we are offered conflicting suggestions as the nature of the reality of in which neither side can be proven... Then we will inevitably align ourselves with the pov that seems to us offer the...

In 12 pages of argument, no one has even mentioned this interpretation of GODly reality let alone discussed it.... The current definition of omniscience is from the pagan Greeks brought to the church by the Fathers: GOD knows everything that can be know from eternity past to eternity future...

IF you are given a choice between options then you can decide which option you think will give you the most happiness, choosing which option is best for you. And if you can choose which belief is probably best for you then upon new experiential evidence, you can change your mind.

If we knew the difference between being alive in spirit and being dead in spirit, no one would choose death. Death is therefore not our choice but the result or consequence of a choice we thought was a better one for our life. When we heard the gospel proclaimed when YHWH proclaimed it to every...

Because God simply takes pleasure in rejecting them? GOD takes no pleasure in the death of anyone, even the wicked, and would rather see them repent: GOD does all things for HIS pleasure but HE takes NO PLEASURE in the death of the wicked - therefore HE did not create them evil to go to hell...

To interpret this as meaning they are without any sin is too contrary to too many other verses that indicate that we are sinful at our conception etc, so it must mean something else. Perhaps it is referring to overt, obvious sin, that people who are sinners who are living ordinary lives and...

The plan of GOD for our lives here in this world is to have HIS sinful elect live with the reprobate unforgivable weeds for the one purpose of becoming fully repentant and holy in HIS sight as explained in the parable of the weeds, Matt 13:24-30, to speed up the coming of the day of Judgement: 2...
