Paranormal Christianity

[37818]

Genuine Christianity is paranormal with its fundamental claim being the bodily resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ from the dead. ". . . But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen: And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain. . . ." -- 1 Corinthians 15:12-14.

Now a key phenomena is, that those who are yet lost do not correctly understand the genuine gospel of grace. ". . . But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: . . ." -- 2 Corinthians 4:3.

Another key phenomena is, that those of us who are genuine Christians actually have a personal knowledge of God Himself through our faith in His Son. ". . . And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. . . ." -- John 17:3. Which has the affect that makes impossible for the genuine Christian to deny the faith.

True. I have a bit of a fascination with the paranormal in general, like: what kind of spiritual creatures exist, are there any besides angels and demons? Not that I ever want to see any

Ok. But what did you understand from the three arguments I made in regard to genuine Christianity?

You displayed three key’s that separate the believer from and distinguished from all other worldly phenomena.

(Imo) Using the word “paranormal” is a bit unusual and will usually bring pushback, but as you carefully assign it’s use some may be less “enchanted” at first and offer alternatives.

That those are paranormal occurences and would not be considered natural
