Silence Of Adam Sin

In our continuing discussion about the fall of man, we have seen that there are no witnesses and no charge of sin against Eve for adding to God’s word. Therefore we must conclude without any charge of sin, that the woman did not add to God’s word

@ItsAaronRich @Joel7Richardson Christian use of trumpet imagery (eg 1Th 4:16) is consistent with prophetic typology, not that the church is “overlaid” onto Jewish ritual. The church is a new entity, not a continuation of Israel under a different name...

CoG uses the Queen's Award for Voluntary Service as propaganda to signal divine legitimacy — Jesus explicitly condemned this kind of public righteousness display

CoG prominently features the Queen's Award on its website and presents it to members as evidence they are the true Church of God.

1 Corinthians 15 confirms: "the perfect" is the resurrection state — imperishable bodies, the last trumpet, being changed — not the completion of the Bible.

Winger appeals to 1 Cor 15 (same letter, shortly after ch. 13) as the definitive referent for "when the perfect comes."

Cloaks and branches on the road are red-carpet treatment declaring Jesus as king — the only OT parallel is 2 Kings 9:13 where Jehu is declared king of Israel.

The proof texts used to identify Jesus with Michael are weak. 1 Thess. 4:16 says Jesus comes "with the voice of an archangel" — but also "with the sound of a trumpet," which no one takes to mean Jesus is a trumpet. Daniel 10:13 calls Michael "one of the chief princes" — not the unique chief — and inter-testamental literature (1 Enoch, Tobit) uses "archangel" for multiple beings, not one.

Evaluating the key proof texts for Jesus-Michael identification; each is insufficient
