Loren,
Please explain this particular point. I do not understand it, and thus your
argument.

In particular, to what does "old epoch of sin and death" refer? It is
critical, I think, to your point, but I cannot see how the epoch of sin and
death is over. Can those who continue to suffer the consequences of sin and
death in this world actually believe this to be the case, including Paul,
and as far as I am aware, all humanoids since?
Regards,
Mark
