Where was Jesus for the three days between his death and resurrection?

however there is hope, therefore those who have fallen asleep are not annihilated.

this passage disproves your position.

If that's all you've got you are in trouble lady.
I have already won my case. It's over already.

No, Lazarus had died, and was dead. Jesus Christ raised him from the dead. He was the same person after he was raised.

People who have died are dead. They will be raised from the dead when Christ returns. If they are not raised from the dead, they have perished. Gone.

Yes, and I think, you just did it.

We are all. passionate about our beliefs and we are all on need of learning gentleness with each other at the same time we passionately give answers for what we believe.

Not easy lol

welcome, and..


@VARob no offense meant I am defending the theological position that I think is correct. I'll continue - and again no offense personally I just think your position is incorrect and indefensible hahaha

You're funny. But, since you deny what Scripture explicitly states in plain English
(as opposed to apocryphal highly symbolic language), you will never "win."

What you do in fact is repeat the lie of Satan at the heart of the fall of man and corruption of all creation.

You're pretty funny.

G'nite, all

Right back atcha, PH.

'nite

Too much of this around here. In two days I've seen no less than three people use this approach.

"Case closed. End of argument. You can't respond anymore because I won. Now go wallow in your corner," LoL. Very difficult to argue with such a powerful, well-reasoned out rebuttal.

Because if I understood him correctly, @VARob expressed the belief that we are utterly annihilated upon physical death and cease to exist. in the last week I've seen the same view put forth at least twice, too.

I don't believe we cease to exist when our body dies - not us nor any other animal in which is the breath of the Spirit of life. I do believe of course that God has power to utterly annihilate a soul, after physical death in the 'second death' but I am not so sure He does it.

of note,

Matthew 10:28
do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.

Clearly destroying the body is not equivalent to destroying the soul.

=]

Of course I do. As regards your faulty take on 1Pet 3:19-20.
I will kindly considered the white flag you offer and take this victory thank you very much.

Same goes for Majenta. When will she realize that a string of defeats is not meritorious?

Clearly.

You would do great in the "The last person to post wins" thread.

That's it?

case closed; end of argument?

Ok, then give me MY exegesis of 1 Peter 1:17-22, since you're apparently not going to be giving me yours anytime soon, Lol.

(Note to self: Biblical discussions with CV5 may unfortunately be an utter and complete waste of time, Lol)

he's a smart guy with no small amount of knowledge; give him grace

@cv5 my prayer is that you also be kind =]

none of us came here to turn brothers and sisters into enemies

With that, I believe I'll head off to work, Lol.

Thanks for the chuckles.
