Hi Canadyjd, I think I understand what you are saying. “Changed” could mean you die and are, at the same time, “transformed”, that is, come back to life and receive your glorified body. I say that in my comment below. (Does everyone believe that, if you are raptured, you receive a glorified...

Hi Everyone, I’m sure this question has been answered but I haven’t found it yet. I have a couple more I may ask as well. “Apoc” = Apocalypse In the Rapture you go to heaven without dying. How can this be? Enoch and Elijah are usually thought to be the Two Witnesses (Apoc 11:3-12) that...

Thanks Salty!

Thanks Campion!

Hi DarrellC, I read your posts and a couple of things I may have misunderstood you on. There are a couple of things you misunderstood me on too. Salty said they are getting ready to close this thread and I don’t have time to answer you right now. I usually will answer in the wee hours of the...

DarrellC, In case others don’t see my post (#128) inside the quote, here it is: Apoc 20:5 The rest of the dead lived not, till the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. DarrellC: Is this the first resurrection? Not at all. In a context of sequence the First...

Hi DarrellC, I’ll input it this way until I learn how to copy the partial posts. Apoc 11:12 And they heard a great voice from heaven, saying to them: Come up hither. And they went up to heaven in a cloud: and their enemies saw them. DarrellC: Kind of hard for the first Resurrection of...

Sorry but I don’t know how to do the partial quotes in the system. Maybe someone can tell me. Thanks.

Hebrews 13:10 (D-R): We have an altar whereof they have no power to eat who serve the tabernacle. Paul is referring to the NT Sacrifice - the Eucharist.

Why are these theories disastrous?

St. Clement 69ad (P) “Let us therefore consider, brethren, out of what matter we are made; who and what we were when we came into the world, as out of the grave and darkness itself; who, having made and formed us, brought us into his world having first prepared his good things for us, before we...

Hi Kyredneck, I guess I’m full of talk this morning. Lol Speaking of Biblehub, I go there pretty often. I was pleasantly surprised to see they have Fr. Joseph Pohle’s work on Dogmatic Theology, volume 7 titled “Grace: Actual and Habitual”. This is volume 7 of 12 volumes. He is probably my...

Hi Kyredneck, Correction on Rom 5:1 - this is in the past tense but what I meant to say is the way you are justified is by a movement of your free Will which is the Virtue of Faith. After our initial justification, other verses show present and future tenses of justification which bring this...

Hi Kyredneck, Thanks for your 2 extra Bible versions. Sometimes I use God’s Word Translation when my back is against the wall and I cannot understand a Bible verse! To be honest, I never trust this translation but sometimes it helps me get started. So I understand looking at different...

Is 53:11 Because his soul hath laboured, he shall see and be filled: by his knowledge shall this my just servant justify many, and he shall bear their iniquities. Rom 5:19 For as by the disobedience of one man, many were made sinners: so also by the obedience of one, many shall be made just...

Vainglory Verses: Eph 2:9 Not of works, that no man may glory. (DRV) Gal 5:26 Let us not be made desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another. Phil 2:3 Let nothing be done through contention: neither by vain glory. But in humility, let each esteem others better than...

Robbing God of His Glory A. In This World - Glory of God is in His Mercy [Mercy = forgiveness = Grace Ps 83:12 (Ps 84:11), Heb 4:16, Rom 15:9] (Some of the following comes from the Summa: STh., II-II q.132 a.1) First, Scripture makes a distinction between the following: Glory and Vainglory...

Robbing God of His Glory 1689Dave’s Argument: If "General Redemption" means Christ died for each and every person, he did not save anyone, he only made it possible for people to save themselves. This robs God of his glory in salvation and allocates to people a value he thought worth dying for...
