1 | Would you please give scripture evidence | 1 Cor 13:12 | Shiloh | 2285 | ||
Your note seems argumentative. If you insist on "evidence" in the Grego-Roman sense then really very little can be concluded about much of the scripture. Look at NT writers proof text when they use the OT text. They are not citing clear "evidence" but rather drawing inspired inferences from the text. My note was certainly not intend nor did for I mean for it to be the the end all and be all of the the question at hand. It is only one text that suggest that there is a legitimate "presupposition"-to use your misuse of the term-that after the resurrection there is something that changes in our physical person. If one is wanting arguementiveness then what does one say regarding the reports of those long dead being reported as being alive after the resurrection of Jesus. We can infer that there were those who "recognized" them as they had been in their old state? Certainly this "contradicts" what I said earlier. Truth ususally come in paradoxes-the way up is down, life through death etc. If you want "proof" then I suggest you are seeking after empirical evidence that is heresay and not admissible in a court of evidence. Namely-the witnesses are long dead. That's why we are called people of "faith" not people of "facts". Only the Holy Spirit can reveal truth. Jesus own words condemen those who seek to gain knowledge of God using the 5 senses and the limited capacity of intelligence (John 5:39)exclusivly. This is not to be interperted as anti-intellectual, only that we must never become over reliant on intellectual reasoning and knowledge to lead us to Truth. | ||||||
2 | Would you please give scripture evidence | 1 Cor 13:12 | Shiloh | 2256 | ||
There is evidence that though we will have recognizable features of our old natural state, there are be significant changes after the resurrection. The evidence is found in the physical sighting of Jesus after the resurrection. On the road to Emmmaus, the disciples were not able to recognize Him until a moment of "spiritual unveiling" occured. The natural eye was unable to make the connection to of the resurrected Jesus to the pre-resurrection Jesus. | ||||||
