    Genesis 1:1-3: How is liquid water present prior to 'light'?

    You don't have to make a Mr. T out of it. 😂

    Is death just another life?

    "Does not"...I agree. "Will not"...I disagree. So if it does not currently apply to David, then David's soul is still in "hell" (Hades), right? The common Christian story says that Christ took captivity (those in the good part of Hades) captive (He took them to heaven), but not in body, only in...

    Is death just another life?

    I agree He suffered in body, soul, and spirit. But you seem to be saying it wasn't finished on the cross. Do I understand you correctly? And if the suffering was finished on the cross, then my position here is not at odds with Jesus' statement...all the suffering was done while Jesus was...

    Is death just another life?

    At least you admit "life-force" is a possibility. For the person, who is made of 2 things: dust and breath of life, according to Genesis. Perhaps. But the context seems to be immediate, or very close to it. I don't. Rather, the scripture seems to indicate there WERE angels (plural), called...

    Is death just another life?

    JR, I already have another post of yours I haven't had time to get to, but as this one is shorter, I'll anser it first. Saying it doesn't make it so, as you like to say. But you have no evidence for that, and it makes his deceit not deceitful. Are you telling me that Satan was telling the...

    Is death just another life?

    In that verse? Then it doesn't fit. If it's a life force of some kind from God, then yes. But that doesn't mean it's a unique, personality-based entity in spirit form. Poor analogy. What about when the car is in a wreck, and nothing will work anymore? It sits in a junk yard rusting, until it...

    How does one apply something spiritually? What do you mean by "spirit"?

    Is death just another life?

    Depends on what you mean by "the spirit". Ecclesiastes 12:7 KJV — Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it. This describes death prior to Christ's resurrection. It is in keeping with Gen 3, where God described death as returning to the...

    Is death just another life?

    I guess it's hard to get past the "wrong" that means "right". But see if this does it. Do they take on a new nature? If so, then they may be the same person, but that person is significantly different than before. Christians often take on a new name when they accept Christ. They have taken on...

    Is death just another life?

    That's pretty effective for maintaining adversarial relationships, too. He whom we call Jesus existed as something other than what we call Jesus. That person now exists as Jesus Christ, forever the God-man. But He wasn't the God-man at one time. This is a key point in the argument for Open...

    Is death just another life?

    The angel gave the name before He was conceived. Joseph and Mary gave Him the name about 9 months and 8 says later. Those two naming events bound the conception. "Approximately" works quite well for such circumstances. Unless you are determined to now squabble over the definition of...

    Is death just another life?

    It astounds me that you first argue with what I say, then you repeat it as the countervailing truth. I said this: And you answered this: Of those underlined statements, one says He was called Jesus 9 months and 8 days after conception (which certainly fits the "approximate" time frame compared...

    Is death just another life?

    What we know is that "the Word" took on flesh at a point in time. At approximately the same point in time, He was given a name He had previously never used before, as far as we know. The name "Jesus" is associated with "the Word" only after He, "the Word", took on flesh. So it's legitimate to...
