12 And Cainan lived seventy years and begat Mahalaleel:
13 And Cainan lived after he begat Mahalaleel eight hundred and forty years, and begat sons and daughters:
14 And all the days of Cainan were nine hundred and ten years: and he died.
15 And Mahalaleel lived sixty and five years, and begat Jared:

I’m not arguing that God didn’t take Enoch to heaven, he did, but the Bible also says Enoch died but never saw death. There is only one that happens.

The "These" of verse 13 is dictated by those who received the Covenant of Promise. This Covenant was made with Abraham. All before him are thus excluded. They did not receive the Promises made 430 years before the Law of Sinai (Gal.3:17).
Yeah right lol.

The bible says Enoch died.
The Bible states Enoch was translated and didn't experience a physical death.

No more response from me, the scripture is clear, simple, and easy to understand.

Hebrews 11:5KJV
5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.

The word "Eternal" means; "no beginning and no end". It
Ok. The definition of eternal is 'changeless' . since changeless reality is forever it secondarily mean never ending time. The primary characteristic of eternity is changelessness. Death is an eternal reality that enters our realm of change.

Our bodies are returned to what, where, when?

Is the future New Heaven and Earth tangible, trees, rivers.

Our bodies returning to our souls is a popular image of resurrection but is old school so to speak. Our immortal souls will animate an immortal body having been without it since it died and returned to dust.

The New Earth And New Heaven are more tangible and real than what is now.

1 Corinthians 15:45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.

This whole chapter talking about the nature of new bodies. Based on what I read here the second Adam or resurrection bodies will not be a living soul. I'd say there will be no soul which is the animation of a physical body by spirit (pneuma), but instead immortal living spirit or like you call it immortal body "I will be satisfied, when I awake in Thy likeness". "A living soul" became of Adam when God breathed His Spirit to quicken Adam's earthen body. But this whole chapter is very clear teaching that our new bodies won't be terrestrial, but spiritual. Flesh and blood will not inherit, but instead we reap the incorruptible, what was sown and begotten by the Spirit will then manifest. "For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God." "We will not all sleep but we will all be changed." But people remain very attached to the ideas of corporeal resurrection, in spite of what 1 Cor 15 actually teaches and in fact persistently reinforces. Corporeal resurrection was just the firstfruits because natural has to come first, then spiritual (1 Cor 15:46). If anyone is still doubtful I tell them to just read the chapter carefully...

Amen. Our new bodies will not be bound by the laws of physics. Entirely at the service of the human will.

A living soul means an immortal soul. Jesus's soul is a glorified soul since His conception.

Something the Gospels are plain about concerning Jesus's body. It is the same body but changed. The wounds are still there. I take that as a foundation.

Fair point... noted
I would just love if people stopped ignoring whatever challenges, like you called it, old school, established imagining of resurrection, in spite of teachings on new bodies exposed in 1 Cor 15 (it's not like our imaginations of future events equal Scripture itself, so I think it's okay to be open about some things).

The soul is life to every cell of our bodies. And the life experienced by the body and soul shapes the soul. The soul preserves the pattern of our body in every detail. The particular molecules that make up the cells are meaningless because even our cells are cyclic and not the eternal substance of our bodies. The pattern of our body and our life is impressed on the soul and that is made flesh that is not subject to change. Just thinking.

I strongly disagree

There will be one future resurrection of all that will take place at the second coming of Jesus Christ, immediately after the tribulation.

John 5:28-29KJV
28 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,
29 And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.

An astute answer my friend. Do not commit yourself, for in a week or a month you will agree with me. All you have to do is define the Promises and to whom they were made (with scripture of course). Do it for yourself - not me. No answer is required.

In Acts 17:4-7 we have a narrative. It reads;
4 "And some of them believed, and consorted with Paul and Silas; and of the devout Greeks a great multitude, and of the chief women not a few.
5 But the Jews which believed not, moved with envy, took unto them certain lewd fellows of the baser sort, and gathered a company, and set all the city on an uproar, and assaulted the house of Jason, and sought to bring them out to the people.
6 And when they found them not, they drew Jason and certain brethren unto the rulers of the city, crying, These that have turned the world upside down are come hither also;
7 Whom Jason hath received: and these all do contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, one Jesus."


In it are a number of characters. (i) "Some believed" (v.4), (ii) some did not believe (v.5), (iii) some "lewd fellows" were hired (v.5), (iv) the population of the city (v.5), (v) Jason (v.6), (vi) "certain brethren" (v.6), (vii) the rulers of the city (v.6). Now, in verse 6 it says "... These ..." and in verse 7 it says "... these ALL ... ". Do they mean ALL seven parties I have listed? Or do they mean "ALL" the believers?

Basic grammar. So also with Hebrews 11. "These all" in verse 13 pertain to ALL who received the Promises. Here is what scripture says:

Galatians 3:16: "Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ."

Hebrews 7:6: "But he whose descent is not counted from them received tithes of Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises."

Hebrews 11:17 "By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son"

"All these" are defined in the passage as "those that have turned the world upside".
Basic grammar. So also with Hebrews 11. "These all" in verse 13 pertain to ALL who received the Promises. Here is what scripture says:

Galatians 3:16: "Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ."

Hebrews 11:17 "By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son"
You said "Basic grammar. So also with Hebrews 11. "These all" in verse 13 pertain to ALL who received the Promises."

I'm assuming the above is a typo because the bible says the opposite, it says "not having received the promises. You are correct in saying "These all" in verse 13 pertain to "ALL who recieved the Promises", but again I'm assuming that "ALL who received the Promises" is a typo.

So "These all" in those verses pertain to the ones who died in faith, "not having received the promises". Enoch nor any of the rest in that passage received the promise, they all went to paradise where they waited until Jesus came and paid the price for their redemption.
