"the dead in christ shall raise first".......they would rise FIRST.......so that say ALL SHALL RAISE.......or NO NEED FOR HIM TO SAY WHICH WOULD BE FIRST, LOL.........the "dead in christ".............simply those then that are just as he, that claim no greatness or superiority for themselves, just as jesus claimed no greatness of himself.........i don't cap his name as that what HE would have WANTED, and to recognize the same spirit mean the truth must make SEE the same..........HE NEVER WANTED TO BE WORSHIPPED, and expressely told all not to do it........he said "i am honored to be called as FRIENDS".......that does not sound like he meant for HIMSELF or HIS NAME to be exalted to a "god" status..........and it be only heady high minded religion that done the NAILEN'..........THE TRUE FEELING OF THE LOVE OF CHRIST BE "ALL SHOULD GO AND PLEASE LEAVE ME, AS THEY I LOVE MORE THAN MYSELF!!!!!.........SEEMS TO ME THIS CAN BE THE ONLY TRUE FEELINGS OF THE LOVE OF CHRIST......

AND YOU ARE DEAD ON THE MONEY, AS THIS IS EXACTELY WHAT SCRIPTURES ALL SAY SHALL HAPPEN........christians shall be the last, since they made themselves to be first.......but ANYTHING THAT BE ALL THE TRUTH NO MAN CAN RESIST AND NOT SEE WHEN IT BE DONE.......as every knee DOES bow, but then that is out of sheer gratitude, and not out of servitude, and then what LOVE says bow to me, lol......NONE......never said all would be MADE to BOW, AND ONLY THE MIND PICTURED "ALL AT ONE TIME".......so each is told get the hell off your knees, I AM JUST YOUR FRIEND, AND JUST LIKE YOU, NOTHING MORE, NOTHING LESS, LOL.......NOW LETS GO TO A PARTY!

He's not coming back again. That's my conclusion.

no! if life was like a bowl of grit's there would be no life. I hate grit's so i would die of starvation. Hmmm?? well no i would just make some bacon and egg's and home fries. no, that wouldn't work cause it would not be there when i awoke - nope it oatmeal or nothing!!

i don't want to imagine it....when he comes back if i'm alive to see it then i didn't do what i was supposed to....the rapture will come first and the righteous will go to heaven...whoever wasn't righteous will still be here to see him and as much as i want to meet Jesus i want to do it in heaven not on earth because even though you still have a second chance to go to God if you're left behind it's not going to be easy to have faith because that time will be dark and evil and people will be killed horribly for not denying God

Jesus was a man . He died and he is not coming back . Dead people do not come back . Furthermore he was killed so he had no power to save himself let alone save anyone else .
.

A man is a man . A man can not be killed and then have the ultimate power to come back . As far as God is concerned : who is God or who are Gods ?!.
No one really knows .
.

Jesus was more then just a man...he was the son of God and was given the ability to do the miracles God can do here on earth...he could've saved himself but that's not why he was here...he was here to save us and if he would've saved himself instead then none of us would be able to go get to heaven....he loved us that much he sacrificed hiself so that we could live

lol......i would say you are right since he never left......anything that pass out of the mortal exist then in the immortal, and that realm is right here, just in another dimension.....

radio waves cant be seen, bu the evidence of them can be heard....

tv transmission the same, but the pictures are real, and travel invisiblly......

the supposed dead are no different......we are simply in a dream, and cannot see outside all, until one connects back to its immortal counterpart.....

all things that exist have an opposite.......
night, day,
cold, hot
young, old
summer, winter
dry, wet
love, hate
male, female
sun, moon
water, land
fear, fearless

if BOTH do not exist, then there is NONE, so mortal/physical/earthly realm must have an immortal/unseen/heavenly realm counterpart, or all the laws of the universe deviate....impossible

mortals to immortals.......all things that pass MUST go to immortal, or it NEVER existed......we simply had to have a mortal experience to expereience an immortal.....so whats the big deal really, all things COME BACK at the end of each cycle of mankind, as a grand finally, the final unveiling of the reason for all unknowns......the curtain drop and bow by ALL the actors in the grand illusion.......it will be quite the surprise who's who......

all things you have heard were based on true sayings, but the hearing of them was thru FEAR.......if one believes in god or jesus at all, the FIRST RULE IS ALL THINGS SAID ARE A LIE IF THEY DONT SPELL UNCONDTIONAL LOVE.......the interpretation is wrong, not the words.......if you have a child, and leave it for a while at school, do you burn the child if it got bad grades, and say it is no longer even your child.........please, for the love of christ, there is no way he does not love more than us, as none of us have VOLUNTEERED to be killed for our loved ones yet......problem is, who on earth has EVER seen love totally not based on actions, so of course we would find it hard to believe such exists, but certainally if humankind love as much as it does, than how much more god......we do ALL love more everyday, as MORE DIVERSITY IS ACCPETED TODAY THEN EVER BEFORE IN HISTORY.....people look and think humans are wicked, and are just AFRAID they'll be damned if they love what they have heard is wrong, but who the hell did jesus love, all those that were "wrong" that didn't say they were BETTER and NOT WRONG, lol.........the only human that was ever condemed by your god was one that said it was BETTER because it obeyed the law, and these were condemed only to see how they were not SEEING the whole picture, and not damned.......what did they do that got them a tongue lashing........they obeyed the laws that were never MEANT to be followed.....ALL WORDS SPOKEN BY A PROPHET ARE PROPHECY OF WHAT IS TO BE, NOT WHAT TO DO! GOD MAKE ALL COME TRUE THAT COME TRUE.....what human make themself.....what human decide what they shall HEAR and NOT HEAR........SEE and NOT SEE......we are slaves of the mortal body to learn about love and wisdom.....NOT TO TRY TO SAVE OURSELVES, OR THIS SHOW WE DO NOT FIRST BELIEVE THAT GOD DO ALL HE SAY FOR US TO DO, LOL......certainally jesus was a leader of great courage and strength, so how could he be a coward of a leader.....

if what you see is ALL the picture, then i beg of you to explain just one scripture to me, as obviously the FEAR of them guide you, and what other human that cannot possibly love more than god wish to see another afraid for their life.......it was written that "NO MAN CAN RESIST THE WILL OF GOD".......so you believe your WILL is stronger than your PERFECT god? IMPOSSIBLE

and bacon or sausage and a ice cold glass of orange juice and buttermilk biscuits with fake butter ....ummmm tasty

What if Jesus comes back in a Goodyear blimp and parks the blimp on your backyard? What would you do?

Captain Kirk said it best in Star Trek 5 when he asked God .. "What does God need with a starship?

so I would ask Jesus the same question slightly askew ..Hey Jesus how much is goodyear paying you to be their spokeperson

I saw that episode. It was really good.

that was the most deepest question ever put before those that believe in a God ..."What does God need?" ...

that question in itself disproves the concept of creationism...why would a God have a "need" or a need for anything ...

it's impossible for a believer to answer that question rationally

Funches, who said that God created the universe to fill a need? The Bible says the opposite. God wanted something. God wanted to give blessings and be appreciated, so God created children. To ensure that the children were worthy, God instituted a test.

What God wants is to give us blessings and allow us to enjoy his presence.

What God deserves is worship.

What God needs is nothing. "I AM THAT I AM" literally means that God needs nothing to exist outside of himself. God doesn't need worship, friendship or any other thing that mankind can give. God WANTS to lavish with blessings those who properly revere God.

Spidercmb you still have not answer the question

if a God "need" nothing as you say then ..."what would a God "need" with worship?" ...

Nothing, I have already explained that. God doesn't need worship, God deserves worship. If you choose to not worship God, that's your choice. But why would God want someone who doesn't respect or revere him to spend eternity with him?

if God was the only existence before he created the universe then why would he deserve to be worshipped ...for what reason since he hasn't created the universe yet or even create humans....and that God felt the "need" to create humans to worship him because he deserved to be worshipped is a sign of God's insecurity ...an insecure God is not a real God but a wannabe

Jesus is in South Park people! He likes everybody!
