You must believe in Jesus first and receive the Holy Spirit.

Then you can do a good work.
"Brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? Therefore bear fruits worthy of repentance ... "

"I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire."
 
A spiritual body still has physiological needs, which prove it a real, materialized body.

When He had said this, He showed them His hands and His feet. But while they still did not believe for joy, and marveled, He said to them, “Have you any food here?” So they gave Him a piece of a broiled fish and some honeycomb. And He took it and ate in their presence.

He had not ascended ergo, not glorified at that stage. After His ascension He was glorified and received a glorified spiritual body. It is nothing like His physical body. Spiritual bodies do not have physical needs, that's why it's called a spiritual body.

Philippians 3:20-21
For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior,
the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body that it may be conformed
to His glorious body,
according to the working by which He is able even to subdue
all things to Himself.


Quantum physics is as real as macro physics but they are nothing alike. In the same way a spiritual body is just as real and visible as a physical body but they are nothing alike, not even made from the same stuff.
 
Which version of God according to your understanding, the first or the second? This is not semantics, this is exposing a loaded question.

You stated yourself the first version is not God by using a small "g". You are playing semantics and the fact you are refusing to answer a very simple question speaks volumes.

Either the Lord Jesus Christ is the One and Only God (with a capitol G) or He is not. What do you say?

Nonetheless, earthly bodies for earth, heavenly bodies for heaven.

I ask you again, first or second version? You seem to insist that only the first version is qualified as the One and Only God (with a capitol G), the second, as "medium" is blasphemous, even though God himself taught His disciples that He's the only WAY to God (the Father in heaven), and early Christians were known as the "WAY" sect. So, you tell me, could a lowly carpenter from Nazerath where "nothing good could come from", per the disciples, be God?

There will come a day when all the elements will be burned up. What sort of person should you be? One who doesn't have a body made of the elements of earth.

2 Peter 3:10
But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up.

There is only one God. You are simply playing games to avoid revealing yourself.

Jesus fulfilled John's water baptism of repentance with a baptism of the H.S and fire.
Yes, but for us, any form of water baptism is John's water baptism of repentance, any pastor who baptizes a new follower is doing John's job, only the Lord himself baptizes with HS and fire.

One will have a body made of the elements of the NEW earth, when everything is made new.

Nope, it is you who can't give a clear definition of God. Actually, God is both, "he who humbles himself shall be exalted." Yes, there's only one God, the one who humbled himself in his first coming, and he'll be exalted in his second coming.

I don't have to give a definition of God. That was not the question, that was your evasion.

Is the Lord Jesus Christ God? Yes or No?

Yes you have, define "God" then we can proceed. I've given you my piece of mind on what "God" means to me, now you give me yours. You accuse me of evasion, but how could I be evading when you're not aiming?
 
LOL Right. No resurrections, old body in the ground still, all the elements burned up. Oops, you just got vapourised, no more body to raise.

:rolleyes:
Say that to all who are drowned or cremated without a trace left behind to raise.

No I don't, I never asked for a definition of God. I never asked what God means to you. That is all on you. I asked if you believed the Lord Jesus Christ is God. You refuse to give a straight answer.

My answer is yes, what is yours, yes or no?

I don't think you comprehend the difference between "the dust returning to the dust" and "all the elements being burned up". Even in cremation there are traces left. There will be no trace of the old universe having existed.

Unless you give a clear definition of God first, there's no answer to your question, not because I'm unwilling or evading, but because there's no way to move from point A to point B when there's no clear point A to start with. Nobody can answer you whether Jesus fits your expected version of God when you yourself are not sure what your expected version of God is.
