God made the human body perfect machines for our souls,
.................
So you understand, this is not the Christian position. Christians believe that we are fallen creatures from the beginning because of the sin of Adam. That those who believe in Jesus are born again. Jesus has become the new Adam. Jesus has gone to heaven in the flesh. Those of us on earth, even though we are born again, still commit sins. But because we believe in Jesus we become ever more like him throughout our lives. When we die our spirits go to heaven to meet Jesus. When Jesus returns to earth from heaven, the spirits of the dead in heaven who are those who —believed in Jesus— will be reunited with their glorified bodies.

Now I understand that I’ve said a mouth full.

Nor these details are not particularly interesting or pertinent to me now. But I do know in the year or so before my father died in 2004 he wanted to know all about this stuff. And he wanted to be told about it in the presence of my mother. So they both would understand the journey that was/is ahead of them.

That is not Christian to believe we will still sin after being born again, nor is it biblical. People can be diseased and still be saved, but the whole point of salvation is freedom from the power of Satan..hence sin free! And it is not hard. But the church has lost the pathway. The fhu.com has not, thank God.
