The ascension

@mike69 said
It is literal, if anything possibly another message of the living word being to focus, look upward, as in life, spirituality, guidance and on.

You're selling yourself short with posts like this.

I was proving a point about how well guessing what something means works out, especially when twisted for your own gain.

I was referring to your personalized topic-bypassing banter and your peculiar animosity. You are clearly capable of being a more substantial poster.

So if he literally and physically went "up", where did it go?

As I say, it sounds like storytelling / allegory to me, written decades and decades after the events supposedly happened.

Another example of this would be Matthew 27:53. It's surely just a number of melodramatic metaphors that are intended - by the writers, who are setting up a breakaway religion - to signify how supernaturally momentous the moment supposedly was.

I’m not trying to be rude it is how I see your spirituality post. Baiting without being forthcoming, won’t say why, or any kind of return openness from either of you. It makes these post seem very dishonest. You can do much better, try listening and responding in a truthful manner and things would change. At this point we can agree to disagree or find similarities with no ...[text shortened]... for understanding and acceptance of one another or even discussing things openly from either poster.

I’m more concerned about Jesus accepting our sins and asking his father to forgive us for we no not what we did.

Christ body and whatever else within you might be referring to went where, how God choose at that time in whatever way he needed while bringing his broken son home to his father and for us.

Well, an allegory is all that is needed for this message. The writers obviously had their motivations to big it up and talk about witnesses.

You’re last two post do nothing but confirm everything I’ve been trying to explain to you nicely in my last few messages without lies, with truth.

The only thing you’re continuing to do is prove that, if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck it’s fmf and the Gooster!

As I have said, your banter is not interesting. Ignore the content of my on-topic posts if you want. It's OK.

I don’t choose anything about you it’s only your misleading post???? It’s also what they could do to a Christian struggling or weak in faith at a certain time and misleading to new Christian’s seeking the Lord. Another thing is your misrepresentation of the Bible from an atheist pov, it’s just more of the same re-education seen in schools and media for adults custom made as people like you see fit to fulfill your needs and ideas.
