Many members, in one Body by one Spirit. I Corinthians 12:14-28
Plain as day . . .
Matthew 8:11 reveals saints coming from all places to sup with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the heavenly Kingdom.
Do you say the B.O.C. is a different group, sitting at another table?
That all of the saints listed in Hebrews Chapter 11, cannot be a part of your club?
That scripture only proves that the BOC is in the BOC.
We already knew that.
One of the most disgusting things ever taught to us while in a Dispensational church, was done using a graph of circles, depicting Christ in the center of the circles (His heavenly kingdom.)
This crazy teacher drew an inner circle positioned close around Jesus, who were the souls saved in the so-called "dispensation of grace" who were given the privilege of being nearest to God . . . similar to MAD's conception of the limited BOC.
But there were outer circles of souls saved, who were not part of the inner circle, nor sitting next to Jesus in His heavenly Kingdom. They were the less blessed. They were Jews in the furthest circle away from Christ, on earth in their own kingdom.
Ugh!
One of the final reasons we fled that assembly . . .
Have you been to the Clinton school of it depends on what is is ?
If folks are NOT in the B.O.C. they are lost and heading for hell. There is not nor has there ever been two plans to receive eternal life with God. That is why scripture teaches that Jesus was the Lamb of God which takes away the sins of the world, and in that sense(world) it meant everyone who placed their faith in Him.
Scripture only teaches "ONE" body of Christ, and those not in that body are heading for hell.
That's too much work!
Can't I just read one commentary that tells me what to think?
:IA: NO! I'll tell you what to think!
And yet you don't bother to point to even one.....There are so many holes in that it should be called a colander not a commentary.
lol, kinda like when MADist ignore everything except what they want everyone to think.
- world does not mean world.
- whosoever does not mean whosoever.
- one body means one of many bodies.
- Paul saying others were in Christ before him does not actually mean that because he taught the mystery that the other Apostles did not know.
- the 3000 that became part of the B.O.C. in Acts 2 and the 5000 in ACTS 4 does not actually mean they were in the B.O.C.. in the body of Christ even though they were saved.
- and the very best deception is how they make two gospels out of one with one applying to gentiles and one applying to the Jews.
- Paul teaching repentance (Acts 20:21) does not mean repent.

Like that is what you mean right telling others what to think ?
musterion;5014877]That's Calvinists.
That's Calvinists.
No, one Body.
That's what he said.
Exclusive club, preaching to none but Jews only...no Gentiles.
That's what he said.
He taught it. It means change of mind. The problem is your false definition.
EXACTLY how do you figure John 3:16 is Calvinist ?
John 3:16 for God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believes will not perish but have ever lasting life.
Believing "whosoever" exactly as John 3:16 is Calvinism ?
There is only ONE body that makes any difference and that is the B.O.C..
The same message was brought to both Jews and Gentiles by two very different Apostles.
God knew what He was doing !
There were no exclusive clubs ! There was, is, and will always be one B.O.C. those in that body are saved and those not in the B.O.C. are lost.
Others were in the B.O.C. before Paul because they heard the only gospel that saves.
Changing the meaning of repentance is so MADist can ignore the teachings of Jesus on repentance by claiming, falsely, that Jesus was to and for only Israel.
Repentance is turning from sin to God.
:doh:
2 Timothy 2:15 (KJV)
Others were in the B.O.C. before Paul because they heard the only gospel that saves.
Do you deny that the "good news" that Paul preached at 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 saved those who believed it?
Do you deny that the "good news" that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, saved those who believed it (Jn.20:31;1 Jn.5:1-5)?
Of course those facts cannot be denied. And that is TWO instances of "good news"(gospel) which saves.
