Recently, I have been discussing man being made in the image of God. Some say that God's essence is spirit and, therefore, that image is mind, will, and emotions (or similar variations) and cannot include anything physical like a body.Some put forth that the image is spirit, soul, and body. But even most of those admit that the body is looking forward to Jesus as God in the flesh. My question for you is, why couldn't the Word have had a spiritual/physical body before the incarnation and, thus, man being made in God's image would be body, soul, and spirit?
In Genesis 1 it says that God created the heavens. When was heaven created? Also, when was hell created. Was it before or after the fall of Lucifer and his angels?
Is the church the bride of Christ? Is there a such thing as a Baptist Bride. Is there a universal church that exist now?
What happens to the soul when you die, before revelation, and judgment day? Is your soul in limbo until judgment day?
My mother passed away and I find myself wanting a clear answer to where she has gone. To a deep sleep until God comes again or to some where in the heavens? Thank for taking the time in answering my question.
Please don't be alarmed by my question. I am doing some research, and some questions are coming to light. Here are a few:
