RE>>I would be happy to stand corrected Brian if in fact
you believe Christ rose in the same body that was crucified,<<

Greg - I attempted to tell you this over and over.

RE>>then I applaud you for that.<<

You do not need to applaud me - it is a very simple doctrine
and one of the things that is more plain within scripture than many other things.

2 Peter 3:16 as also in all his epistles,
speaking in them of these things;
wherein are some things hard to be understood,

Some things are harder to understand than others.

RE>>Even though many who would hold the doctrinal statement
you quoted and which I responded to, do in fact deny it.<<

Greg I believe that is a manufactured lie.
What group of Christians do you know of
who deny Christ rose physically?
I know of none and have told you this before.

RE>>"The point in question is this....
Is Christ still in that physical body even now?"<<

That is no longer the "point in question" for me Greg.

The point in question is this....
Is your statement "I would be happy to stand correct" sincere?

I am not interested in playing games of debate that merely
BEGS THE QUESTION

You have utterly failed to respond to me with any kind of respect
as far as I can tell.

For you it has been a "pry and pounce" approach rather than
one of mutual respect and a willingness to actually investigate the issues.

I can say to you - GOD IS MY WITNESS

**** I AM BOTH GLAD AND HAPPY TO STAND CORRECTED ****


If you can correct me FROM SCRIPTURE I invite you to do so.

I am not happy to deal with those who are so convinced
they are right that they only seek to WIN AN ARGUMENT.

I ask you questions but get no response - WHY?

Why - after I submit and openly subject myself to answer
your strategic questions do you not answer mine?

I asked you more than once - WHAT IS A STRAW MAN?

You have never ever answered...

Are question meaningless because I am nothing but a damnable heretic?

Here is another question for you...
Do you know what BEGGING THE QUESTION IS?

Greg - at this point the "point" is not about Preterism or any
other doctrine you may feel compelled to defend.

At this point the "point" is...

are you willing to obey this commandment concerning your
conversations with me:

Matthew 7:12 All things therefore whatsoever ye would that
men should do unto you, even so do ye also unto them:
for this is the law and the prophets.

I am not interested in subjecting myself to even more godless attacks
especially from those who profess to know Christ.

My time is worth more than that to others.

I started to answering your "pointed" questions TWICE
each time I did not even finish before you were 'at it'

How many of my questions have you answered?

In short - Greg

Please believe me when I tell you this post is not an attempt
to attack or insult or to win because
after all look how gracious he is - puke !!!

This post is a last attempt to see if it is possible

to DISCUSS the subject and if not them please excuse me.

I will simply pass.

Proverbs 20:3 It is an honour for a man to cease from strife:
but every fool will be meddling.

There are quite enough fools around here stirring the pot.

Unfortunately - I often find myself joining in.

Brian
