@Jack Ryan Only the wicked and those who are for lawlessness will succumb to God's Judgement, as with those when Jesus has the scepter in his hand and eventually hands it back to God his Father.

Those who are resurrected clearly will have a chance, since God's Judgement will continue onward until his adversary is no more.

@Witness He may be referring to haters of God, which was the case with enemies of God as seen in the Old Testament, examples like Gideon to both Zebah and Zalmunna, both of them who clearly were not fans of God and were quick to mock, resulting in Gideon taking his blade to take them both out himself instead of Jether, Gideon's firstborn doing it himself. And of course there will also be a gnashing of the teeth and wailing of those who assume they are for God, but clearly ate out of the hands of falsehood.

As for the verses in question, John's vision is prophetic. The Angel of the Abyss is regarding the one called Satan the Devil and that part in what is also mentioned, in whole, points to Revelations 9:1 and 20:1-3.

That being said, for anyone who does not read Portuguese, what @Querotevernoparaiso said is the following:

DO NOT WORRY ABOUT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In Armageddon, those who ridicule God's promise, where believers will forever live in an earthly paradise doing His will, and today make strong opposition to His will, "may" lose the privilege of living here on earth for all the time!

IT IS TIME FOR YOU TO FALL INTO REALITY !!!!

@JOHN BUTLER I'd also like to point out that the link about UCA/GAUFCC is in connection to Interfaith as seen on the website linked by you which can lead to here: https://www.interfaith.org.uk/

You should also realize that Interfaith based things is of Apostasy practices, of Babylon the Great, for mainstream Christendom had given themselves up yearly to such, those who do not are seen as martyrs. Avoid anything to do with or connected with Harlot's main practices anything that is supporting of or by action to the E.I.I. and Lucis Trust.

This among many things is one has to be very very cautious of.

@James Thomas Rook Jr. On the bright side, you can live anywhere you want. Governments and the IRS will no longer be an issue, or the Mailman.

Until then, we wait, we endure, we remain vigilant because we do not know when everything will play out, if anything end time tribulations will be obvious.

S.M. I tried to understand where you are coming from, but I failed. I wasn't trying anything on. 

I just remembered you saying you are a Unitarian in the past and thought I'd look it up. Sorry for being wrong. 

No worries, but you have to remember there is many, many denominations in Christianity, even among Unitarians who are also under Christendom, and among them some do not believe that Jesus pre-existed before he became a man, while others do as well as a list of other things.

My views are very simple, especially regarding God and his Christ - 1 Corinthians 8:6 and I take and adhere to the teachings of what the Church teaches her people as is done in the early days of Church whereas our early Christian brothers and sisters use to gather, all of them, in union with Christ and His God, adhering to the same gospel, the same teaching.

That is why when t comes to all things true, be it the Bible, Christian history and so forth I tend to be somewhat pressing, even strict, for what is spoken of in Galatians 1 I follow to the letter.

So how will they fair in areas where it is banned and frowned upon, granted in some countries and or by some groups of people in a nation a beard is considered disrespectful?

Project Ambrosia takes anyone from 16/18 to 24/25 regardless of race or sex, according to Faloon, it will make you healthier and live longer, no wonder Project Ambrosia is referred to as the Vampire/Dracula.

The other one, the illegal Black Market targets blacks and latinos, but race does matter in this one, as for sex, it is anyone, even any age. Such is taken from young ones as young as the age of 7. It would be wise to understand how grim the blood farming and organ selling is in this regard and how much of a scar it leaves to such ones effected.

You cannot Space Jam your way into the NBA by means of illegal black market blood that came from a 8 year old child.

That being said, the things that is never talked about, the things taking place in the United States of America, it is unknown to some, sadly with all that going on, meanwhile....... you got Babylon the Great who is about to make a pit-stop in Texas in a few days, 4 days to be exact and it will last for 48 hours.

I don't even know if God's name should be Yahweh or Jehovah or something completely different. 

To be brief, God's name is the 4 letters from the tetragrammaton יהוה which is YHWH or YHVH. The Jews later on, seeing the name as sacred and should be protected changed YHWH/YHVH to adonai, but later on as we advanced in our language YHWH/YHVH comes out to Yeowah, Yahveh, which in modern tongue is Yahweh or Jehovah, especially in the realm of transliteration. Yahweh/Jehovah for short is Yah or Jah and Jesus' name (which was also transliterated) means Yahweh/Jehovah is Salvation or simply Yah/Jah Saves.

That being said, God understands all who call him, be is Yahweh, Jehovah, Hashem, Abba, Allah, El Shaddai, Elohim, etc. For God isn't ignorant of speech or language.

This link you have here I see UCA and GAUFCC, (including the UUA) both of which in regards to Unitarian Universalism. What you did here is like trying to equal Dr. Michael Brown to James White, in this sense.

Though in fairness I only looked at this first 'page'. But it seems they play it safe by allowing their members to be of 'any religion'.  I do wonder if they would go to war and kill each other as Catholics do. 

Depends on the denomination, Universalist Unitarians tend to be 50/50, some would go to war to kill others do not, granted the views and practices of that Unitarian denomination.

Catholics do go to war, as do most Christians, even in the past, you have such ones who claim to be, and affiliated with that of the Crusade and the Ku Klux Klan, Christian Militants, and so forth.

But I gotta attempt, trying to equal to me that of a Universalist Unitarian based off of a top search without added research was a failed attempt, mainly when it is direct to a guy who studied ans is knowledgeable of religion, but I am solely a Christian, unlike my UUA counterparts I do not embrace all faiths, I merely speak of and correct the wrongs people speak of them, nothing more.

The last guy who tried to pull that off regarding Unitarians being unaware of the different denominations never showed his face on this forum again, backfiring his comments and making use of John 8:44 against me when it was met for him in a heated discussion about church fathers. I can give you this advise, you do not want to fill his shoes if you are seeking to go down that path.

I will tell this to you so it sticks, I am a Biblical Unitarian Christian who believes in pre-existence.

Well, choice to doing "normal" stuff as going to higher education is, have to be matter of your personal choice and NOT RESULT OF DOGMATIC TEACHING, INSTRUCTION, ADVICE, COMMENDATION of Church Leaders. 

Indeed you have the choice, but the fact of the matter doing such would hinder any connection with God or not. The only thing you cannot have a choice about is the type of people you will be around, a stoner, a sex addict, someone who is seeking you out, a manipulator, etc. I have been down this road before.

And no, the teachings are not dogmatic, as we have examples in Scripture already. The bottom line is not losing one's connection and or relationship with God, which is something that can easily be lost in things that tend to take up time.

If you want an experience of mine, 3 of my professors had issues with being overly religious, one of the 3 attempted to fail me because he felt that me reading the Bible was disgracing him since he was homosexual, and assumes that I 100% hateful towards gays of which I am not. I simply told him I do not hate him as a person, just not someone in favor of his conduct and I simply pulled verses in Ephesians. For when he, came out of the closet, so to speak.

Clearly it didn't change his view of me, but it is evident that he was clearly not a fan of the Bible, on one occasion he tried to test me, to show me in the Bible homosexuality was not sin, that Jesus would have accepted it,but he failed miserably. A good thing that semester, that was a war zone, had been done away with and completed.

Our Church Fathers were educated, and if one did the research, they'd look at their backgrounds, I explained this to you months ago already.

Religion and or our faith is the best education we have, who does not want to read and understand things about God and his Word?

And because of faith by means of Christ-like practices to be in application in our lives, it helps a lot, examples, a man who is of Christ knows not to commit a type of sin in regards to desire of the flesh vs. someone who does not - very simple.

That being said, it didn't take religion to see how the system in the realm of education is seen being played out by others, hence the rate we see today.

but I would love to see the proof that elderly Christians are paying for blood transfusions from younger people.

The Christians of which I speak of is of those within the realm of the conservatives/liberal, especially those who reside in Silicon Valley; support it even, their cause regarding such, so to speak.

And what is mentioned is actually true, this Project Ambrosia. Project Ambrosia was founded by Stanford graduate Jesse Karmazin, medical school graduate without a license to practice medicine. It is regarding young blood from those in the ages 18 to 24 range, for this young blood of which is spoken of is something on the menu for wealthy folks who believe that the blood of the young can someone prolong their lives. According to Bill Faloon, the 63-year-old former mortician (also the founder of The Church of Perpetual Life and a speaker at The First Transhumanist Church), he even stated himself that such ones can prolong their lives and become more healthier, in his on words he said: Â“Not only do you get to potentially live longer Â… but youÂ’re going to be healthier. And some of the chronic problems you have now may disappear.” Now we have Project Ambrosia who began a clinical trial that had about a sum of 80 people over the ages 35 and older with a pay out of $6,000 to $8,000 range, most sources say $8k, to get an plasma infusion from young donors around ages 18-24, other sources say around the ages of 16 and 25. Project Ambrosia wants to publish this information later on in hopes of positive review.

There has been a lot of vocal Christians who are against this, such ones like Soulja of God, who he and his crew kept bringing up verses from the Bible, ones like Leviticus 17:14, even that of Acts 15:20 and 29 and several other verses to this regard.

Now on the other side of the spectrum we have Voudou, otherwise known as Black Magic. First things first, the Bible forbids such practices, and it is something that God detests, just as his view on ritualistic practices, fire torment, brazen conduct, etc. In the Caribbean, islands such as Jamaica, Haiti/Dominican Republic, even Cuba, in addition to some Spanish countries, such things are present, but it is far worse in the islands mentioned by name. Vodou is 100% denounced and hated by all Christians here, however some, including the Roman Catholic have merged the practice into their faith, as we can see not only they adhere to Traditions of Men in this sense by adding in something accursed, but, they include Satanic like practices to their practice, hence such ones are not followers of Christ at all, and if you see people who where 100% all white garbs, it is a clear sign you have a devil worshiper in front of you. People like yourself would never know such things because it is never spoken of, but speak to an elderly person who was born and raised on the island, they will tell you, a few of the young ones will say something, which includes me, who is telling you this now.

That being said, an American Christian Youth Group I know of back in 2016 were met with such ones who practiced such, those who believe in the Loa, which is part of the Vodou doctrine.

As for blood, such ones tend to use actual blood from both humans and animals for ritualistic practices, the common targets is usually children and people are at times kidnapped in the dead of the night, either by rebels who were paid to kidnap or kill or by demonic practitioners of such a detestable thing, the worse of the worse is a Lugaroo, in your language it is referred to as a Witch, that comes to snatch up or kill someone, for these demonic persons are spoken of as being influenced and or actual manifestation of demons, as some may claim. The aftermath of any of their actions tend to be very very grim, mainly when they kill their victims, and I know from experience because even those of my own, people from my family, a few of them have been victim, one of which who was partially drained of her blood.

I myself know the country well and we have a saying, Si ce sont pas les rebelles qui vous attirent dans la journee, ce sont les demons qui viennent vous chercher la nuit, meaning if it isn't the rebels that get you in the day, it is the demons that come for you in the night.

The only good thing is that such ones who practice this keep to themselves, but the most extreme among them tend to be in parts of the islands that is forbidden, this is the same even in Africa whereas such is also practiced.

That being said, anything they do, anything they practice includes blood and idols, the very reason why majority of folks on the islands do not partake in blood transfusions due to superstitious reasons and the very threat of practitioners of sorcery being an adversary to them.

One of the reasons I believe that God will soon pout an end to this madness once and for all, hence why the view of blood, especially in my case, is very clear.

Now you have the Black Market, blood farming and organ selling. To be brief, those who fall victim to such usually have their organs and blood removed from their body, to be sold and used as if it is something normal. The common targets are African-Americans and Latinos, in some cases, anyone of this background ends up missing and never found, no trace at all, similar to the situation of the missing DC girls, 13 open cases involving missing teenagers in DC, as of 27 March 2017 to now and onward, all of them, black and several Latinos. That being said, I myself is still digging into this and trying to get more information, at least you are aware, slightly of what is going on - for this is one of many, many things that is never spoken of in mainstream news media, granted the African American Community in of itself speak up on such things themselves.

Other sources, TYT, although not much of a fan, but they had some interesting points of which may not be mentioned in the article during that time:

 

 

The video has gone viral and it is being talked about

It is begin talked about even more among the black community also:

 

@Srecko Sostar By no ones recommendation. Granted if the care for God and giving oneself up to God in Sacred and Devoted Service is an option to such ones, it isn't a crime to do that. God's Son gave command to adhere to the Great Commission, it is a command not to be taken lightly, let alone being like that of a living sacrifice in terms of total service to God.

So it wouldn't be stupidity, granted with if one is aware of the situation with higher education in the US itself. No one is going to stop anyone however I think the concern is being spiritually weak and the possibly to being open to what the Freemasons are doing in the schools regarding prepping young ones via frat houses and the like if such are selected. Another fear would be sexual immorality i.e. You can have a daughter going to Rutgers and she will possibly be a target, granted a lot of things of the like is taking place, and lastly, Gang-Stalking, it does not only happen to people of color or racial background, nor does it only take place in the churches, it happens in the schools too.

@Gone Away Most of British Youth tends to use the term occasionally, the older British folks, sadly, tend to be unaware of what their children are doing and saying.

@Jack Ryan God's original purpose was for man to fill up the earth, and his purpose and will will be accomplished.

Even the Twelve were not perfect. They argued amongst themselves as to who was the greatest. 

This is true, but ever care to take in what takes place in the conclusion of such things, mainly when Jesus was present and how he settled the situation?

One was regarding James and John, for misinformation can go a long way, mainly when the mother, Salome, got involved to speak with Jesus and how angry the other disciples of the Christ were. Which resulted in Jesus speaking about and giving example of what it means to be like a slave or a servant, always being in a position to put the master first before himself, master before slave granted with examples taken from passages such as Matthew 20:20-28 and Luke 17:7-10, which also connects well with when that one time Jesus washed the feet of one of his disciples.

For indeed, they were not perfect, but at least they know and had the time to wise up, especially when given lite criticism and lessons to be learnt from the Christ himself.

At this there was a sharp burst of anger, so that they separated from each other; and Bar?na·basn took Mark along and sailed away to Cy?prus. Paul selected Silas and departed after he had been entrusted by the brothers to the undeserved kindness of Jehovah.

Due to our imperfections, there are times when we can become angry,even by the slightest due to irritation, I know I myself isn't a stranger to such either. Regarding Paul and Barnabas, both of them are good God fearing people with various qualities. They did get angry with each other even the Church of Antioch was aware of this, but later on they resolved the issue, granted their argument was over mission tours that were planned, also someone named Mark was possibly involved too.

Although later resolved and the two were buddies again, for they cannot stay angry of each other, and we can see they never ever insulted each other at all despite the burst of anger. Their situation poses as an example for us today, for us Christians, if we do become angry, mainly with a fellow brother or sister, we should be wise and open to consider what can be read in James 1:19, 20 as well as if things escalate to cease totally should things start to go crazy, whereas we find an example in Proverbs 12:16, 17:14, and 29:11.

As a treat I will give you an actual Restorationist Christian who isn't in any denomination but follows the church to the core as an individual who is speaking about this himself (also another video I linked to Matthew a while back):

Note: His focus is on Birthdays, but in the video he mentions Christmas also as with other pagan customs that originate from Tradition of Men.

Not everyone in America is for weapons, not everyone in America is for giving weapons to the governments either, granted with the big protest regarding school shootings and the situation with Parkland Florida. As with JWs, it is common that some of them had own weapons before they entered that faith, as with others who had their own situations.

This I agree with, as for Europe they have their own network of getting weapons left an right, but the most common in the EU is knife attacks, oppose to the US whereas it is mostly firearm and or assault rifle attacks.

Therefore, some people end up training themselves, and or others. i.e. when met with a knife wielding attacker, such ones try to draw you in close while an attacker with a gun will keep his or her distance so you do not disarm them.

Some cases one has to comply, other cases one has to take opportunity, or more or less, it is a fight or flight situation, and or the act of getting out of TDZ referred to as The Danger Zone.

That being said, in the US, in most cases, it is commonly shoot first ask questions later type of situations, and they will target you if you are of a specific color or nationality in some cases, but not ALL of the US is bad, in this sense.

Some issue with business and money of course, ( i do not think it is about women... but that can be a reason sometimes too, haha)

Well if it is something illegal it would pop up in the media in some way or form. If anything I can try to find a source. Other than that, some people who use to do bad things will seek out to be religious, and have a faith, repenting for their misdeeds. So some people will actually turn over a new leaf and change.

That being said, the situation in Russia is actually grim, I heard that the website that tracks people using that software I mentioned to JTR is still blocked as if the algorithm or something keeps changing. But chances are that Hunting List is bigger, and to the FSB it is open season on the religious, which includes JWs. The FSB will never, ever target the RoC because the RoC is in connection with the State Duma and the Kremlin.

• Colossians 3:8 - But now you must put aside all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your mouth.
• Colossians 4:6 - Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone.
• Ephesians 5:4 - Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk, or crude joking, which are out of character, but rather thanksgiving.
• Ephesians 4:29 - Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear.
• Matthew 15:11 - it is not what goes into the mouth that defiles a person, but what comes out of the mouth; this defiles a person.”
• James 3:10 - From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so.

That being said, you've proven the point made in the discussion regarding forum/social media, to which I mention such briefly in this regard.

Repent and go pray.

Mr Butler will in future ignore S.M. as Mr Butler knows how to teach people God's word and it's meaning and does not need any advice from SM.    

Do so if you must, the the actual effort to care is not in me, for I speak and a response regardless, for I have a disdain for falsehood, untruths and conspiracy. But it would seem when someone who knowledgeable walks into the room, it is seen as a problem.

Tom mention the Christmas colors, so let's apply:

• If you knew the teachings of God, you be well aware of the Strong's to which you show a total ignorance of, knowing that both the words supplication and substituting share the exact same Strong's.
• You'd know that the Ten Commandments are still in application by means of the foremost commandants, for the Laws itself, from the Ten Commandments are Bible Principles that are still followed to this day.
• You'd be aware not to speak such a word, which is regarded as vulgar slang.
• You'd understand things regarding what girdled/nakedness means, granted it's Strong's straight off of Biblehub even tells you and it is not to be confused with the English Word.
• When you speak that one lacks Spiritual Wisdom, and you are question, and do not answer properly only shows that you were the one who lacks all this time, for if you teach people, they wouldn't take that answer from you in the real world when it comes to the gospel spreading.
• You'd be well aware that those who are fighting against sexual immorality will always need help to which you had stated the opposite, and your own words regarding this is not taken kindly to other Christians who help such ones in that domain, information I will not post here for they has quite the colorful words for you.
• You'd be well aware of what is actually false and what is true, and not using false information to justify  something that is of conspiracy.
• In nearly every discussion, when one thing is being talked about, throw in child abuse, when such as been discussed already with many pages as proof, twice in 2 threads, one of which admin locked down, and as of recently when the topic was regarding 2 specific things of sexual immorality, also locked down for the same reason, for such a thing you cannot throw into the mix when something else is being spoken of. For there is a time and place for that, even the thread in question that anyone can still post in.
• You'd be open to truth facts, but clearly you are not.
• You grow angry an frustrated when a truth is spoken, even when a truth is spoken you do not agree with it when your OWN source says it is true.

You cannot say you teach if you do not teach yourself, and it shows, so the advise given is of your benefit, Butler.

Before I was sincere with you, but it would seem you show yourself of who you really are, hence a foreshadowing of my words some weeks ago coming into the light now.

That being said, Mr. Butler, you can do whatever you want, but people will also speak truth about the Bible, the history of Christianity, our Church Fathers, the didache and the truth of God, and do yourself a favor since you are in the UK, going to Speaker's Corner with your the lack of Spiritual Wisdom will only get you refuted, tenfold.

All that said, disgruntled one, I will advise you read, study and make research in all things spiritual because clearly, even with JWs holding your hand before, you still cause yourself to stumble and be the type of person who is not just quick to be angered, but quick to accept something as a truth without merit.

So I leave you with these 2 verses so you can remind yourself every time you actually make an attempt to read the Bible:

• Proverbs 15:31 - If you listen to constructive criticism, you will be at home among the wise.

• Proverbs 24:16 - for the righteous falls seven times and rises again, but the wicked stumble in times of calamity.

God and his Son of whom he made Christ, Jesus, can read hearts, Mr. Butler and the heart is very treacherous when it comes to some people.

I like the way Paul put it   

 

"However, we do use wisdom to speak to those who are mature. It is a wisdom that doesn’t belong to this world or to the rulers of this world who are in power today and gone tomorrow. ^7 We speak about the mystery of God’s wisdom. It is a wisdom that has been hidden, which God had planned for our glory before the world began. ^8 Not one of the rulers of this world has known it. If they had, they wouldn’t have crucified the Lord of glory. ^9 But as Scripture says:

“No eye has seen,
    no ear has heard,
        and no mind has imagined
            the things that God has prepared
                for those who love him.”

^10 God has revealed those things to us by his Spirit. The Spirit searches everything, especially the deep things of God. ^ After all, who knows everything about a person except that person’s own spirit? In the same way, no one has known everything about God except God’s Spirit. ^ Now, we didn’t receive the spirit that belongs to the world. Instead, we received the Spirit who comes from God so that we could know the things which God has freely given us. ^ We don’t speak about these things using teachings that are based on intellectual arguments like people do. Instead, we use the Spirit’s teachings. We explain spiritual things to those who have the Spirit.

^14 A person who isn’t spiritual doesn’t accept the teachings of God’s Spirit. He thinks they’re nonsense. He can’t understand them because a person must be spiritual to evaluate them. ^ Spiritual people evaluate everything but are subject to no one’s evaluation.

^16 “Who has known the mind of the Lord
    so that he can teach him?”

However, we have the mind of Christ."  1 Cor 2:6-16

Nowhere in this passage we see Paul referring to humans being as spirits, and or human and angel hybrids... Therefore the New Age belief, is nonsense, not even the students of Paul believes in human/angel hybrids.

Therefore I agree with Jesus who he himself stated that  Spirit is not flesh and bone, not like us humans.

That being said is that if you truly agree with what Apostle Paul said here, which is totally unrelated to the human/angel hybrid remark to which you believe, it didn't stop you for making the claim that what Paul had a said, a man who had the Holy Spirit on him, were just an opinion. Paul here was speaking to the Church of Corinth, the same church of which was spoken of before to which you were disagreeing with Paul, why the sudden change when you yourself think this man speaks opinion, let alone Creation?

Nowhere in God's teaching is there people both human and angel that bears both flesh and bone and you've yet to prove this - which is unfounded. You seem to do a good job evading what you yourself had said clearly and ignoring your own words.

The New Age Theology is sheer nonsense and never originated with the church nor is it of God, a man and woman who is Spiritual and knowledgeable of the truth will even tell you the same thing about those of New Age Christendom and their odd ideology.

As for the passage in question, 1 Corinthians 2:6-16, for these verses alone it is in direct reference to The Wisdom from the Spirit, in outline form it is Superiority of God’s wisdom, while verses 11 to 16, in outline form is A Spiritual Man vs. Physical Man. with the footnote for verse 13 stating the following: Or interpreting spiritual truths in spiritual language, or comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

Now in Paul's own words, in his works, he speaks of being Spiritual in all things that is of God, which is the case with the passage, that anything of man's understanding of things in the world tends to be brought up in argument and or debate, even by rulers who do not know of God’s wisdom as expressed in his sacred secret. Us of mankind do not go anywhere else, we remain on earth, for there are those of false Christendom who believes we go elsewhere either dead or alive, others, like yourself, who believes somehow we become like human, who is flesh and bone but as a spirit also, a false interpretation, and an accursed belief.

 

In his words, specifically 1 Corinthians 2:9 which reads:

But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him”—

Apostle Paul shows us that he did not preach the wisdom of man that orginates of this world, the one you are trying to justify right now of which clearly Paul does not agree with you himself, but rather, Paul speaks of the wisdom of God, God’s hidden wisdom of the sacred teachings concerning Christ Jesus the King and Spiritual Israel in a heavenly kingdom.

This wisdom cannot be understood easily be those of this world, and as for putting forth the application in contrast to those who do not, in the verse mentioned, 1 Corinthians 2:9, it is a direct quote to Isaiah 64:4, which reads:

From of old no one has heard or perceived by the ear, no eye has seen a God besides you, who acts for those who wait for him.

Here, Paul goes on to show that Christians having God’s spirit are not blind to thw wisdom spoken of, for they are aware of what God has ready for them, to take in and perceive the blessings of the Kingdom for such ones, who adhere to this wisdom are in union with the Christ, members of the church that is his body.

The passage, 1 Corinthians 2:6-10, which reads:

[6] Yet among the mature we do impart wisdom, although it is not a wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are doomed to pass away. [7] But we impart a secret and hidden wisdom of God, which God decreed before the ages for our glory. [8] None of the rulers of this age understood this, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. [9] But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him”— [10] these things God has revealed to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God.

Nothing here, when reading for context and understanding, shows any apparent showing of human and angel hybrids or human spirits belief whatsoever, thus the claim of which professed by you is not support, it does not support the New Age belief in the human angel hybrids, even the human demon hybrids to which they believe - again, utter nonsense, nor does it speak of the belief of others who think humans will be dwelling elsewhere when the truth is it is the earth and the earth alone they shall dwell, as humans, not spirits, and as humans, soon to be made perfect, restored, so falsehood and speculation we are to avoid.  Because of some of these beliefs, this passage also brings us to John 14:2, which reads:

In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you?

Our Lord and Christ, Jesus, was speaking to his disciples who would be begotten by the Spirit, for he will be going to prepare a place for them, and these disciples are in Union with the Christ, invitation and the inauguration of the New Covenant, being before God.

So we can see, nowhere in this passage, even by reference do we see Apostle Paul addressing that man would somehow be human and spirit/angel, what have you. For as I stated before to you, Us humans are separate creations to angels, just as animals are separate creations compared to us, we should not even think of and or consider confusing such with a false ideology, even the likes of the New Age, among the worse in mainstream Christendom compared to Trinitarians.

The next thing you'll have to address still is in your use of not authentic Bible verses. Why do you adhere to a later addition that is spoken of to be Spurious? Things never addressed by Mark, this that is not of God's Word. I had to correct Allen on this before, would not have expected it to be coming from you now, granted of whom you adhere to.
