Yes, that's where YOUR logic takes you, though you won't bother to assess your own logic. It is incredible, but you keep doing it.

I'm sure He did, since it says "taste death for every man." You're working so hard to make it say something it doesn't say, but you aren't willing to allow it to say exactly what it says. Aren't you saying, in effect, "God doesn't know what He's talking about; I know better than God"? It also...

Don't be goaty.

You will be able to tell who Jesus tasted death for by who is resurrected from death. Since everybody will be resurrected, Jesus' death applies to everyone. However, only those who submit to His lordship will enter His kingdom.

Agreed. We've created coal and oil in the laboratory...why couldn't they?

No wonder, since you don't have an answer.

Yes, but not necessarily everyone who is reconciled to God is saved by Jesus' life. (That seems strangely similar to what I wrote before, maybe because what you wrote was strangely similar to what you wrote before.)

Yes, but as you point out, it applies to "we", but the reconciliation could very easily still be a larger group than that of the "saved", since the salvation is a promise, not something already accomplished. If it's already accomplished, then there's no need to emphasize the "promise" part, right?

Since there's a two step process, then it's possible for some to be reconciled by His death (first step), but not be saved by his resurrection (second step)?

You're on the right track for once, @beloved57. But we aren't saved by the reconciliation; it's by his life, that is, his resurrection.

Even if we're talking about two resurrections, the second one also includes some that are in the Lamb's book of life (maybe they died during the millennium), and they come out of their graves into life, while others come out of their graves into condemnation. Both are conditions that happen in...

No, the resurrection speaks of two groups, comprising "all that are in the graves": John 5:28-29 (KJV) 28 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, 29 And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life...

Matthew 22:30 (KJV) For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.

Then you can see how they can't die anymore, because they've been resurrected in immortal bodies?

No, the first death is not eternal, all are resurrected from it. At that time death is swallowed up in victory, and itself destroyed in the lake of fire. After that, the alternative for not being in the Lamb's book of life is the second death--something different than the first death, since...

I thought that was Minnie Pearl.

I didn't think "online" existed in 1947. 😉

God can't murder, agreed, but Dominic's reasoning made it out to be because God has made man immortal from the beginning, and He just moves man from one box to another. If that is true, then not only is it impossible for God to murder someone, it is also impossible for God to kill someone.

That's so funny and awful at the same time. At first I was thinking some of the people might be nervous getting asked these questions on camera, but when they started figuring the math problems, it showed exactly what was happening. These children have been made idiots by our public school system.

Do you think belief in God helps you after you are dead?
