@satstacker007@cjohnsonn0311 “Grace is a gift from God….”
God imputes “the free gift of righteousness” to us through faith. Grace is God’s unmerited, undeserved kindness by means of which he bestows this free gift upon those exercising faith in Jesus’ name for salvation. (Rom. 4:22-25; 5:17-21)
@arh0526@julie_kelly2 Smith filed a superceding indictment on Aug. 27, tweaking the allegations against TFG. TFG argued it violated the DOJ’s 60-day rule about bringing new indictments before an election, except the cutoff was Labor Day, wasn’t new and was filed 70 days before the election.
@davec260@julie_kelly2 “Trump team … could file an appeal regarding Jack Smith eligibility to even be a special [counsel].”
To what end? Judge Chutkan indicated yesterday that she, unlike Judge Cannon. doesn’t view Smith’s appointment as special counsel to be a problem, which the DOJ routinely does.
@alan_stoddard “The least of two evils will be a reality. No one is exempt.”
Politics isn��t best served by voting for or against this or that. Jesus said “my kingdom is not of this world.” If it was, his “servants would have been fighting.” Jesus’ kingdom “is not from the world.” (John 18:36)
@alan_stoddard “Politics is a dish served cold. No one will be clean in voting.… WE have no clean option.
“Am I wrong?”
Yes, you are, Alan. Not politics, but vengeance is said to be more satisfying when exacted some time after the harm that instigated it. The Christian’s option is Jesus.
@skrxubla@sjggraham “I'm using the ACTUAL definition of incarnate….”
The definition that you are using differs from what the word “incarnate” actually means. Think of Gabriel, the angel that materialized to Mary in an incarnate form, which made an invisible creature (the angel) visible to her.
@skrxubla@sjggraham “Yes, Jesus (who is God) died physically….”
Jesus is the Son of God, but how would it be possible for God, who is immortal, to die? What do you understand the word “immortal,” used in the Bible at 1 Tim. 1:17, to mean:
@skrxubla@sjggraham “That absolutely does not follow.”
ok. You lack experience now, but over time it’s possible that you will grow in knowledge of the subject. You really shouldn’t pretend to have knowledge that you do not possess. I been a Bible scholar for 40+ years.
@skrxubla@sjggraham “‘Incarnate bodies’ being...?”
You should always look up the words you don’t know or understand in a dictionary. I’m using words found in the US English lexicon.
@skrxubla@sjggraham “How about when Abraham literally feeds angels? … Or when the two angels come to Lot's house, and the people of Sodom demand to have sex with them….”
These angels all had incarnate bodies, not physical bodies.
@skrxubla@sjggraham “The point being that just because the word does not appear in the Bible does not mean that the doctrine of the Trinity is false nor heretical”
This is exactly what it means!
@skrxubla@sjggraham “You equivocate death with the annihilation or cessation of one's existence. This is not death. Christ did not Cease to exist when he died, his spirit departed from his body.”
Jesus died when his spirit or life force departed his body, but God resurrected him on the third day.
@skrxubla@sjggraham “Angels absolutely put on physical bodies, and nowhere in scripture is this implied otherwise.”
You are making a claim; therefore, the burden is on you to prove your claim. Where in the Bible does it state that any of God’s angels ‘put on a physical body’?
@skrxubla@sjggraham “Yes, the word does not appear in scripture, but neither does the word ‘microbiology’ or ‘Australia.’”
The word was neither “microbiology” or “Australia”; it was “Trinity” and this word doesn’t appear anywhere in the Bible.
@skrxubla@sjggraham “Besides, if angels can put on Physical bodies, there is nothing strange about the creator of all things doing the same to die for humanities sin, and redeem us.”
Angels can put on incarnate bodies, but they aren’t the physical bodies of flesh and blood that humans have.
@skrxubla@sjggraham “There is nothing incoherent about God putting on flesh to live as man.”
“Incoherent”?
“This would be putting limits on the almighty….”
Yes; God cannot do impossible things like lie.
“… you're equivocating death….”
Meaning what?
