Your closest friendnt

You are some how out of tune with Paul. Paul said that not too long ago the disciples and Pilate and the High Priest witnessed the death of Jesus on the cross and the Roman Coroner verified his death. That happened not before the foundation of the earth. But about 2000 years ago. That's when the disciples began to Preached that Jesus died and in three days was raised from the dead. Jesus died three days before his resurrection. If you know when Jesus was Resurrected then you will know that Jesus died three days earlier.

Hello @Vine Abider thanks for pointing this misspelling out. Sheal=Sealed.

@Vine Abid Because we are sealed with the Spirit of Christ it not the same as Christ making our abode in us. This needs to be discussed.

In the Gospel of John we learn that Jesus Christ is the Life. He was the only one who was in the Life of God. Jesus has the same Life as the Heavenly Father. Is there something that is in the way to understand that?

They are two different things. The Eternal Life is Jesus Christ. The Comforter came from the Heavenly Father at the time when Jesus was Glorified. The Comforter was given to Jesus Christ from the Heavenly Father. When? At the day of Pentecost. It came from Jesus Christ. And it comes from the Heavenly Father. Paul did not speak against that.

You must be able to say that Jesus Christ did not have the Comforter whike He was here on earth. This why he couldn't give it to anyone and He told His disciples to wait for the Comforter in the upper room.

Jesus Christ let them know that they are in him and He is in them. They were the New Creation they were Created in Him. They were in HIS ETERNAL LIFE. He let them know that they are in the New Covenant. Jesus is the ETERNAL LIFE. His trials and his tribulations came to the end on the Cross when He died. With his death Jesus ushers in the New Covenant. They samething happens with everyone who believes in him. This was to let them know what happens to everyone who believes in him. That's the point. Jesus did not do that to anyone else after that. He stay with them for forty days teaching them a lot of things. Forty days of resurrection teachings. And they were able to understand what Jesus was telling them and they said " the Comforter had not come yet because Jesus was not yet Glorified. The Comforter was not on earth yet. The Comforter was with the Heavenly Father and it was given to Jesus when Jesus was Glorified. And Jesus sent the Comforter to his disciples and to the rest. And from that day on the Holy Spirit the Comforter to those who believed in him in in the world. To convict the world of Sin to testify that it is truth about Jesus. The Holy Spirit of Pentecost not to confuse your self with the Holy Spirit in the Old Testament. You must discern the distinction. No one had it because it was released from Jesus Christ on the Day of Pentecost who is in Heaven and it was given to Him from the Heavenly Father. It takes from the Glorified Jesus and represents Jesus Christ, it?was given on the name of the Glorified Jesus Christ. Before Jesus was not ascended He was not Glorified He was not sitted on his Gloriius Throne. Jesus is with the Heavenly Father. No one can take Jesus from the Heavenly Father and bring Him to earth again. Within the meaning that He is on earth and He is absent from Heaven.

After what Jesus did breathing in them. After the Cross. One or two days after the Cross Jesus breath to them who were present at that time. And that's it. We do not have information that he did that again. Or a testimony from the disciples that he did that again at anytime close to less than forty days till his ansension. And those disciples said that the Holy Spirit will be given to Jesus Christ after his Glorification in Heaven. They said that the Holy Spirit will be given to Jesus Christ and they were referring to the Holy Spirit from the Heavenly Father was given to Jesus after his Ansesion. They said that Jesus did not have the Holy Spirit from the Heavenly Father yet. That the Holy Spirit from the Heavenly Father has not come to the earth yet. And they said that the proof that Jesus has been Glorified in Heaven is that the Holy Spirit from the Heavenly Father has come on the earth. And Jesus said wait for it to come on the day of Pentecost. God had not Given the Holy Spirit to Jesus Christ yet. In other words Jesus Christ cannot give to his disciples something he did not have yet. This post requires your response. It is a response to your post and you should respond back because we are in an open forum and many people are waiting for your response. Do you still stand by your quoted statements above when you posted them in response to Jesus words in John 16:17 . Why did you opposed? Jesus said that to his disciples many days after the event of breathing into them He was telling them that they do not have the Holy Spirit who comes from the Heavenly Father. Jesus identified the Promise Holy Spirit from the Heavenly Father the one to come after Jesus is Glorified as the Comforter.

What do you want to say by that? What are you trying to prove?

@farouk It can also help others who see the tattoo. It can remind them about faith and when they have one too many not to cause trouble and take a taxi home. It can remind them about many things and some of the people they had met when they were going to Church. And if their name suggests that they are from another religious background but the tattoo suggests something else like the sign of the Cross, or a reference to a Bible verse it can be a reason to start a conversation.

I could bever imagine that. I never thought about shoes till I asked the question. This is what I know that we stand before Jesus as we are without our Heavenly body. And it must be so. It cannot be in any other way. As we are waiting for his decision. And yet we will be guided to Heaven. I do not think they will be just drop there and be left on our own. I am thinking if it will be a ceremony where we will be clothed with our Heavenly bodies and I will be very excited because the last time I looked in the mirror I was very old. I don't think the disformed from accidents they will stay disformed for eternity.

Do you have shoes on?

To God it's done. The old is out. To the believing Jews who came out of the Old the New has come. They commemorate the Old Covenant from the Mount Sinai Moses brought down to them. And the Celebrations God had ordained in the Old. And they thanked God for Jesus Christ who died for the forgiveness of their sins. Peter said it's done. The New has come. Jesus is Glorified. What Jesus said in Mathew 24:29 had been fulfilled the time Peter spoke the words in Acts 2:20 by the power of the Holy Spirit.

What are you saying about your self when the time comes when your heart quits on you. Then what?

Of course in the New Earth Sinners are call to have their sins forgiven in Jesus Christ. Peter preached the Gospel in the Day of Pentecost. And it happened in the New Earth. This is how we know that the Old has passed away and the New has come. Peter told the people who were in the Day of their yearly Atonement that they were in their sins. And Peter told them that the New has come they can have their sins forgiven in Jesus Christ.

@Starise Mathew 24:29 and Acts 2:20 Mathew 24:29 “Immediately after the distress of those days “‘the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and the heavenly bodies will be shaken. Jesus foretold what will happen after his ordeal, the whole package, He said: "the distress of those days", including his death on the Cross to people who were able to understand him. Who knew they dependent on the various stages of the face of the moon. And the light of the sun. The beginning of their Religious Year and all their Celebrations in the Law were dependent on the various stages of the moon 🌙. The Crescent 🌙 for the beginning of the New Year and the beginning of the months. In the first month on the full moon they Celebrated the Passover. And for every month it's about the same. The Celebrations of the New moon and on the 15th the Celebrations on the full moon. Till the Day of Atonement and the Days of living in the Tents. The Jews knew that without the Sun to give his light to the moon they are lost. They would not have the moon to begin their New Religious Year and to follow the GUIDING STARS to the day of Atonement Their wouldbsay : The Lord does not want us to continue to our religious practices? Because without the different faces of the moon we are lost, everything is gone They will be in their sins. This is what Jesus said to them: that if you do not believe in me "you will die in your sins ". This is it. They lost the moon and the monthly events ":their GUIDING STARS that leaded then to the Day of Atonement. They will be and remain in their sins. Jesus Christ was Glorified after his death and Resurrection. He said to His disciples on the road to Emmaus: "Don't you know that it is written in the Law and the Psalms and the prophets that the Son of Man had to die first before He will receive his Glory. Jesus has been Glorified. The Law of Moses with everything in it the moon Celebrations and the Atonement are gone from the position of God. Acts 2:20 The sun will be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and glorious day of the Lord coming.

But yet this is sufficient. For the forgiveness of their sins. If they die the next moment all is well. They will die to Jesus Christ.

The much more is for men or for Jesus. PS I never refused clarification to anyone. Your statement is the same the Greeks said to Paul. Is not a bad one. The Jewish reaction to Paul was a bad one and they called him according to their interpretations of the scriptures non complementary names at the least in their thoughts. But some of them wanted to know. And Paul gave them his time. I quoted Paul when I responded to your post. That made me wonder why you did not get it. And it is not the first time.

yes I have and I just did but does that have to do anything with Matthew 24:29 and about the last days in Jesus Christ statement? Mathew 24:29 29 “Immediately after the distress of those days “‘the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.’

That is a true statement in the sense that it includes the Jews. This is why the Gospel had to be preached to them. And they were the first ones to here the Gospel and believed and their sins were forgiven in Jesus Christ. A word of caution because I did not include their works. Only said hear the Gospel and believe and their sins were forgiven in Jesus Christ. One more time I did not say that they asked for forgiveness because I said when they believed it happens. The moment they believed, it happens as they believe. I did not say what they do in deferent groups of believers only I said what is in scripture.

I am not in agreement with some of the things you said in the above quoted statement. In your statement is not mentioned that as children we have the mind of our family for our quidance even the mind of every one who took part and influence our upbringing. And at the same time we have our own mind. For this reason your statement is incorrect. We do not have only the Holy Spirit to quide us in Life. Many Spirit are competing for this position and we end up to be quided by many Spirits at the same time. This is why we should test and give the preeminence to the Spirit of Truth. We must learn to discern the quidance of the Holy Spirit. The quidance of the Holy Spirit is the same quidance Jesus will give us. As adults we speak and often we are wondering what we are talking about. And that can go either ways. We often correct ourselves along the way. Or we misguide our self without being conscious. What we read in the bible and it is possible and it's good to want it it's one thing and the reality in us is another reality. This is why we have to learn to discern. The truth is that the Holy Spirit is not the only one that quiding us in life. This is why we our being corrected day in and day out. We need to be careful. That's all.

The Bereans heard Paul's message and they said let's see what the scriptures say because Paul was reasoning with them from scripture. In this example bellow from Hebrews 1:2 we have statements in verse one. But the specifics are not given. BWhen Hebrews said something about the last days, he was referring to those days that had already pass. During the times Jesus sojourned in Israel. He said: God has spoken to us through his Son. Referring to something that has happened. We do not know if the specifics the Hebrews had considered were from Genesis or from other sources as rabbinical teachings. The discussion should be centered around the specifics and establish that they are found in reference to Genesis. But we are not given the specifics. Study the Berean way it cannot be done without the specifics and to establish that they are from scripture in Genesis or they are outsource and identified their origin. Like when Philip and the Enuch discussed Esaiah 53 they had the specific words in Esaiah 53. In verse two he is speaking to believers in Jesus Christ and yet without s scripture reference. For the study of the scripture itself. With Paul it was a very different situation. As he spoke to unbelieving Jews and reason with them the specific scriptures for days. We don't have the specific scripture references but we have the information that he did that with them. Later he said quite a few things to consider and made more statements but did he give the specific scripture reference for the Berean study? Did he give specific references of scripture to support his conclusions? Reading scripture can we say "here is the scripture that Justify what he said". In our days many speak giving scripture reference but they do not let us know of the study of the scripture it self. They claim it supports their statements but they do not show the specifics of their study to prove it. And very often the study of the specific scripture it says something else. Speaks of something else. The Bereans were testing but they were testing Paul's sayings. But did they allowed them selves to be tested in the same way? Today they say "the Bible says" but they did not got to know the specific context and test the context. They make statements about the context. And they do not test their statements in reference to the context. It's about the context of the statements Jesus made that "the moon will turn into blood and the stars will stop giving their light and fall to the earth ". Mathew 24:29 29 “Immediately after the distress of those days “‘the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.’[a] Acts 2:20 The sun will be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and glorious day of the Lord coming. It's about the Glorious Day, the Magnificent Day of Jesus Christ. We need to ask our selves: Did Jesus had his Glorious and Magnificent day? And when was that? Hebrews 1:1-2 In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways, 2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom also he made the universe.

@truth7t7 Revelation 21:1KJV 1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. And there was no more sea is referring to a group of people. It's referring to a mass of people liken unto the sea. To a huge number of people apart from another group of people. Definitely smaller in size. There was a large group of people the Lord God could not sit down and judge them. For this reason we had the sea the Nations who were not Judge by the Lord because he had a Covenant with the Israelites to Judge only them and He gave them the Law to Judge them according to it. In the New Covenant Jesus Christ is the Judge of all the people of the world. This is why we have no more sea. The place they were kept or were destined to go there is no more. Death and Hades have surrender every one to Jesus Christ for their Judgement. They lost their authority to take the people of the Nations by default. No more sea. When You know that Jesus Christ is the Judge of everyone in the world and that the dead of the world have been Judge. Death and Hades have surrender the Keys to Jesus. They also cannot enter that place anymore Their new place is in the lake of fire.

In the New we do not have the multitude of the Gentiles. We don't have sea. There are no Gentiles in the New Covenant. Only the man who is ready to believe upon the hearing of the Gospel. Former Jews and former Gentiles.
