COL 1:15-20
Where god is, theres is Jesus (am i wrong?), Where Jesus is there is eternal life (IE Heaven and his Salvation, Am i Wrong?) And Where theres eternal life, there is the church (anyone saved is a member of christ's body, IE his church. Am i Wrong?)
Basically the only problem with the statement with peter is that it takes focus off the capstone of the christian faith. Those who have indeed died are members of the church.. I promised myself i would never use "in my humble opinion" because it sounds so fake, but i mean it. In my humble opinion thats what the first part does.
if you wish to rebutt me, do it in PM, dont take us off topic, and becareful bastoune as to not debate here.
Go In God
