You are going to have to do a much better job of explaining these things than simply stating, its all past tense. It's not past tense and shall proves it. It's not past tense and the fact that the dead in Christ have not yet risen also proves it.

I’m not saying one way or the other if these verses are past tense but …

Exegetically tenses are always in relation to the author. This is an obvious exegetical rule that is often ignored. Since these verses were written 2000 years ago, they could be past tense to us.
