Christ is the head of the one body, the church

and every one in it is equal to every one else in it.
I Cor 12:13 For by one Spirit were we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.
Gal 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for you are all one in Christ Jesus
Col 3:11 Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.
There is no racial, ethnic, language, national or any other kind of supremacy(white, black, hispanic, asian, american, indian, european, african, arab, russian, chinese, etc. you name the people group, nation or language) in Christ.
Every member of the Body of Christ partakes of the same spiritual blessings. (Ephesians 1:3)
Rev 7:9 After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands; 10 And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.
Zech posts - "Hey 7744, just following your lead. Isn't this how you show us how to do things here?: Pay no attention to the Topic or conversation and twist other posts into points of contention then post them in every thread? How am I doing so far master? "
That kind of sarcasm would make anyone that has spent TIME on this Bible discussion (there is no discussion with P7744) forum and its threads, to soil their shorts in laughter! P7744 is very frustrating, disrespectful of others and its a "VENT" for me to see this sarcasm from Zech. Sure it creates more distractions from discussion but you know what, P7744 will bully any thread anyway! Right?
NOW, why is it you NEVER call out P7744 for that mom?

That is VERY VERY interesting, I have not run across that yet. I will check this out, Thanks!
If this is true, this is a huge error to me because there is BIG difference between the "Book of Life" where all the Saints names are written, to that of the "Tree of Life" that Saints will eat from! That's right friends, Persons/souls, what ever you want to call the Saints, will have flesh and blood, digestive systems, glorified perfect human bodies!
Yeah, see if you can find anything..because it seems to make sense as it is a tree=papyrus scroll=book..Paper comes from trees.
I used to grow King Tut plants and have a papyrus bookmark in my Bible..bought online but legit paper.
I found this.
Zacharyah quote
The reason the KJV has "Book" instead of "Tree" is because when the translation was being done the Greek Book of Revelation was incomplete and therefore had to be back translated from the Latin Vulgate .....

Technically, back translation is used to compare the translated document with the original for accuracy and quality. ... The independent translator must be as literal as possible when creating the back translation to achieve an accurate description of the translated words' precise meaning,

In the Book of Revelation, a Koine Greek phrase xylon zoës is mentioned 3 times. This phrase, which literally means "wood of life" is translated in nearly every English Bible version as "tree of life", see Revelation 2:7
Gal 6:1 Brethren, if anyone be overtaken in a fault, you who are spiritual, restore such a one in the spirit of gentleness; considering yourself, lest you also be tempted.
As we engage with other members of the Body of Christ, whether online or in person, we should deal with each other in mildness and gentleness.
