    Jesus exists in both realities at the same time just as He said while on the earth....John 3:13, And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.... thus Jesus exists and is experianced in both earthly and heavenily realms.. it...

    Did Jesus regard Mary as his mother?

    Note the "mystery of God" is the incarnation of His Son, Jesus Christ, from a humble woman named Mary... one cannot understand fully the Incarnation of Jesus Christ without understanding Mary's position both in reality and OT prophesy... kyril

    The Lord God made garments of skin.

    Biblical manipulation to deny the words of Jesus Christ Himself...fine.... Have you ever pondered that the Church on earth does the same will of God that is being done in Heaven? Or did the prayer of Jesus land on deaf ears? Again The Kingdom of God is not an invisible spiritual realm, that...

    Did Jesus regard Mary as his mother?

    Jesus Christ is not God of all? Why do you make the Kingodm of God only a heavenily experiance? "Thy will be done on earth" are meaningless words uttered by Jesus in a prayer to the Father? Where is your evidance that Heaven is not on the Earth? Do you deny Jesus Christ in the flesh...

    Did Jesus regard Mary as his mother?

    Who is my mother? Jesus Asked. Then He said, "She who does the will of God". Mary said "be it unto me according to thy word".... what more need be said? The word "woman" is used as a term of endearment not a slam or a put down as we see it used in modern day speach. When Jesus said woman...

    To the Orthodox who have a "closed communion" or Eucharist service or "taking the bread and wine" it is a closed liturgy because we consider unity within the Church or the body of Christ to be that of a marriage... we dont just let anyone into the "marriage bed" .... that would be spiritual...

    AJ, I must assume by these words that the works Jesus commands of us are now moot by your personal interpretation ("I Believe") First... it appears you reject Church attendance yet Jesus plainly says He will be known by the love for which his followers have for one another... how is this...
