Matt.22:32'I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob'[a]? He is not the God of the dead but of the living."
Ray, Doesn't this verse indicate Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob were alive during Jesus incarnation and now? I don't understand how this fits.Thanks so much for any help.
Blessings,
Rob
Dear Bob:
I have answered this question many times. We need to READ all words in
a Scripture, not just gloss over it and think we know what it means.
Matt. 22:23--"...there is NO RESURRECTION...." [The Saducees didn't believe in resurrection].
22:28--"...therefore in THE RESURRECTION...."
22:30--"...For in THE RESURRECTION...."
22:31--"...BUT AS TOUCHING THE RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD...."
22l32--"...God is not the God of the dead, but of the living."
These verses are ALL ABOUT THE RESURRECTION FROM THE DEAD. Concerning "THE
RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD, God is the God of the living. He is not the God of dead people.
God is the God of LIVING PEOPLE. When? IN THE RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD. "Concerning
THE RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD, [that's how] God is the God of the living.,
God be with you,
Ray
