The correct term would be libel since slander is oral defamation.
But, you are still influenced by the culture and society. I think that two adults can discuss scripture and disagree without one of them childishly resorting to claims of slander or blasphemy or declaring the other to be "hopelessly lost". You have declared every other person in this thread to be "lost" (or words to that effect) in one or more posts. This is the "Debate with a Calvinist" forum and not the "Make Calvinists listen to your 10,000 word screed without disagreement" forum.
No one is saying that "being born of the Holy Spirit through living faith in Jesus Christ" is Buddhism. But, your statements about levels and us being the earth-bodies for angels and transfiguring ourselves is a little Buddhist in their nature.
You've accused me of Buddhism. That's slander. That's the Bible definition.
Matthew 17:17 And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart, 2 and was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light. 3 And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him.
Is this Buddhism??
What is this?? It is the Church of Philadelphia transfiguring... in entire sanctification... and every other church being outside of the protection that the Church of Philadelphia alone enters.
Revelation 12:1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: 2 and she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered. 3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. 4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born. 5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne. 6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.
7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, 8 and prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. 9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. 10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. 11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. 12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.
13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child. 14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent. 15 And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood. 16 And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth. 17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
How does the scripture declare that the body comes to this fullness?? Through sanctification in truth.
I didn't say the other churches aren't saved. I said what Jesus said... they will not escape tribulation with the Church of Philadelphia.
Now, if you want to be an infant and declare it "Buddhism"... that the Bible says that the seed of our spirit as saints will bring forth a body after it's own kind... and that body is the body of an angel... and you just want to think with Calvinists within time about human flesh and not about before time, in time, and after time to see hypostatic union revealed in scripture... that's between you and the Lord.
But you won't escape tribulation. That requires full revelation.
I'm telling you what the scripture says. It's childish of you to call me a Buddhist for declaring scripture.
And, if you want a friendly conversation... then you might want to apologize.
Calvinism is temporally minded... and it's not enough revelation to escape tribulation.
It takes seeing that the Genesis creation is a temporal creation created for the redemption of angels who fell as angels and could not be saved as angels.
It doesn't matter how "outside the box" that is to your mind or anyone else's. It's the Word of God.
I am making a scriptural case. Issuing slander at me calling me a "Buddhist" for it... is not a debate. It's a personal attack.
