As far as the foolish argument that Jesus knew what the
"whole world" consisted of - it is a direct violation of
any respectable literary critic or hermeneutical principle
to suggest that Jesus would teach his hand picked apostles
using terms that had ulterior meanings that would only be
know to the likes of the dregs of this thread.

Pathetic....

YOU ARE ALL SO INTELLIGENT I AM PROUD OF YOU ALL

You guys make me ashamed to be known as a Christian.

This thread is a sewer and you turds will float in here
until the day you all die without ever seeing Christ return
nor learning anything other than the crap you have all been fed.

ENJOY YOUR SHALLOW LITTLE LIVES

Not a drop of respect or even a window of hope of any of you
ever hearing or understanding a properly composed argument
based on scripture - EVER

Why are you here - YOU ALL KNOW IT ALL ALREADY

oh wait - I forgot - you are making sure heresy does not spread.

Good job guys - I am sure Christ is proud of you...

but I'm not - not in the least.

Any one got any matches - let's burn us one of them thar heretics....

They seem a lot like them Jehovah witnesses to me don't they Jed???

Darn rights Jethro

We know what Jesus meant cause we're always right - right?

     RIGHT ON BRO ... WE IS BROTHERS!!!  


Luke 23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them;
for they know not what they do.

"Thou shalt not bear false witness"

"Physician; heal thyself."

Let James speak for himself. His view is different from yours. He has clearly and repeatedly claimed that Jesus' resurrection body was spiritual and not physical by twisting first Cor 15:. That is denying the physical resurrection body of Jesus and that makes you a "false witness"

He outright denies the physicality of the resurrection while you just say Christ ditched his physical body sometime after the resurrection. Either way, the result is the same. Jesus, in your view does not now have a physical body. That's "THE TRUTH" that you present and that's Heretical!

Romans 3:8 is irrelevant to this discussion BTW, but OTOH Col 2:8-9 is. I suppose I'll have to wait another year or two for you to respond to Paul's assertion that Christ now resides in a body.



"Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ. 9For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily"

"Greg over and over you have been told that no one teaches that Christ did not rise physically"

Apparently you missed Otto's book. He takes the same position as James.

"One author whose exegesis of Acts 1:9–11 is cited regularly by hyper-preterists is Randall E. Otto. He outlines his understanding of the text at some length in his book Coming in the Clouds.27 It should be noted that Otto’s argument for the invisibility of Christ at His Second Coming rests on his denial that Christ’s resurrection body was a physical body. Otto argues instead that Christ’s resurrection body had a “very evanescent and vaporous quality.”"

27 Randall E. Otto, Coming in the Clouds: An Evangelical Case for the Invisibility of Christ at His Second Coming (Lanham: University Press of America, 1994).
