Reponse to Sam Frost on John 11 25 -26
October 5th, 2019 | Eschatology | No Comment
Sam Frost is a former full preterist. He left full preterism a few years ago and returned to futurism. Since that time, he has become a self-styled champion opponent of the full preterist view.
In discussions on Facebook, we have sparred back and forth on the doctrine of the resurrection. Recently, he posted to his blog, and shared the link on Facebook in response to an argument I and perhaps others made on John 11 25 -26.

In this study we examine further the relationship of dying and rising with Christ. Most futurist and some Preterists see the physical body paradigm of resurrection in 2 Corinthians 5. Our study will examine that premise as we walk through the context of 2 Corinthians to demonstrate that Paul's view of the resurrection did not entail a body rising from the ground.

The Body Is Being Sown In Corruption
Problematic for the IBV and other advocates who claim that the body is being sown in corruption from birth is their reading of First Corinthians 15:42.
