Once again, as with all who are duped by church-ianity, you are unknowingly misapplying the word "soul" to the reason of HOW one BECAME a [mortal] living soul.

We are not to be looking at what a soul is, but rather how man became a [mortal] living soul.
You are duped. That is straight from the bible, the Word of God, and the Hebrew definition of nephesh. So, who is duped. You disagree with God and the Hebrew language. I added nothing.

"nephesh" means more than that. In the Shema (Deuteronomy 6:5), loving God with all one's nephesh = offering one's entire life, desires, and whole being to Him. Jesus quoted this as the first of the two greatest commandments.

Deuteronomy 6:5 -You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might.
You are not grasping what is actually being said!
Once again, as with all who are duped by church-ianity, you are unknowingly misapplying the word "soul" to the reason of HOW one BECAME a [mortal] living soul.

Furthermore, many often confuse the word "image" in KJV Gen. 1:27, 9:6 as meaning the exact image of God, of what He Himself looks like! Absolutely NOT!!
The truthful meaning is the word "idol", which is God meaning that the imagination of His Thoughts, of what Adam/should be like, is what God created physically from His own Thoughts of His Own imagination.

We do the same thing all the time!! It is in that likeness that we are like God!!
We also can CREATE things through our own thoughts of our IMAGINATION.

That right there is the foul, religious belief of church-ianity, aka "the wisdom of men".
All UNsaved people (who are not born again of God's Holy Spirit) have NOooo... eternal existence of any kind.

Agree.

God breathed into Adam's nostrils Oxygensted AIR,

Disagree.

Gods BREATH is not “OXYGEN”.
God… IS SPIRIT, CREATOR and MAKER.
(Not the Created).

“Oxygen”, is one of the “numerous” elements of Gods Creations…

The body’s is a creation…a VESSEL that holds a LiFE within The Vessel /Body.
The Life of that Vessel / Body is Blood.

The body, (of a mans SEED) … takes approx 9 months, delicately being Formed By the Hand of God.

Once the Body (Vessel) IS FORM-ED
It is Delivered forth and severed from its host…of nourishment / and waste (the Placenta)

”AND” <—-> conjunction <—> SOMETHING Immediately Occurs…

Gods intervention…of WHAT?
Makes the Body’s Blood (life) Flow? No.
God MAKES WHAT?

God “MAKES”…
The Eyes….SEE
The Nose…SMELL
The Ears…..HEAR
The Mouth..UTTER SOUNDS
The Tongue.TASTE
The Flesh…..FEEL TOUCH

All ^^ Things…a Body Does NOT Experience IN it’s host Placenta, Before Delivery.

HOW Does God MAKE “those things” FUNCTION?
* BY, Through, Of… Blowing A Soul WITH Gods Breath of Life…INTO that Delivered, Blood Life, Body of manKIND.


Who’s Body IS That? The mans
Who’s Blood Life IS That? The mans
Who’s Soul IS That? Gods
Who’s Soul Life IS That? Gods

One Vessel, IN another Vessel.
Each Vessel with a Different Life SOURCE.
Both Vessels, carry the “same name identity”
One vessel is Visible to mans EYES.
One vessel is Invisible to mans EYES.

Fact… the mans Body Vessel… Must, Shall, Die…. God Requires that.

* Fact…. the Soul Vessel… May or May Not Die.
* Fact… IF God Breath Remains IN that Soul Forever, that Soul Shall Live Forever.
* Fact… IF Gods Breath Departs OUT of that Soul, that Soul Shall Die, and Forgotten.
* Fact…Gods Breath has nothing with The created element / Oxygen.
* Fact… Created Oxygen is a creation that health wise serves the Created Body Organs and Blood Life.
* Fact…The Soul is a creation WITH Gods Life, that Serves the Purpose OF “COMMUNICATION”, between and among men…
AND…
For any Willing man, ALSO, Serves a mans Ability to “COMMUNICATE” with his “Creator and Maker”, by, through, of Gods Appoint-ed “Advocate”.

[BGen 2:
[7] And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, ( <—Body Form-ED /
Created /Accomplished)

and (<—-THEN Additionally)

breathed into his nostrils the breath of life;
(Oxygen? No. Gods Breath of Life)

and (<—- THEN Result)

man became a living soul.
(The Formed Body Vessel, man Became AN ALIVE…Living BODY and SOUL).

Body’s Life and Souls Life Adjoined Together, One identity / Name.


Men can do as they please with THEIR Body…nourish it, take care of it or kill it.

All Souls and The Life there IN the Soul (Gods Breath, belongs to God).

Ezek 18:
[4 a]Behold, all souls are mine;

… ASIDE from “THE Soul” which Every manKind Alive Delivered mans Body (vessel) Receives…

…There IS a Phenomenal, Wondrous Offering From God… regarding a mans own Natural “spirit”, different aspect, than… the body and soul.

… A WAY and MEANS for a manKIND of Being, TO Receive … DIRECT (without an Advocate), COMMUNICATION ABILITY…
To God.

… That is beyond the Scope of This Reply regarding a mans Soul.


As the scriptures do reveal…

One ManKind of Being IS Triune…(In the likeness of His Creator AND Maker).
Body, Soul, Spirit.

Three different things;

1 Thes 5:
[23 b]your whole spirit and soul and body …

Gen 2:
[3b] … his work which God created and made.

Glory to God,
Taken

Honestly, that is an enormous amount of human wisdom to describe how it is that both man and animals were given by God an Eternal, Immortal soul.

Did you know that the author Moses never attended any classes about Biology or Chemistry, and therefore could only speak from the level of his limitations of intellect, of how he thought "a living soul" came to be.

But, if he knew what gases God created, that make up the AIR of the atmosphere, I'm sure he would have done a better job than he did in explaining it, instead of just saying "the breath of life".

You keep saying "human wisdom" why is using God's word "human". God isn't human and neither is His word. Taken has posted God word not human words.

A man was given a body…
That MUST Die.

That same man was given a soul…
That CAN be Saved and remain Alive forever;
OR
God removed His Breath of Life FROM that soul….and Destroy that lifeless body and lifeless soul…and the Memory of that lifeless destroyed body and soul… Forgotten.

But, if he knew what gases God created, that make up the AIR of the atmosphere, I'm sure he would have done a better job than he did in explaining it, instead of just saying "the breath of life".

God forwarns… men are given KNOWLEDGE “ little by little”…and the “Understanding of the Knowledge”… (if one is patient)…comes After the Knowledge…
And “Knowledge” NOT given (from) God, remains His to keep secret…

And… one day ALL shall be revealed.

Same method upright men teach their own children, little by little…understanding later…

Modernly in these days, this age…
Disgustingly sad… IS schools, society, nitwit parents… have opened Pandora’s box and Vomited out… knowledge ( not suitable ) for a babes ears to Hear or their Eyes to See … and the confusion, and ignorant plague thrust upon millions of little children.
Sickening.

Forever I am telling Christians (who are born again) that they should read, study, discern and digest all of KJV 1 Cor. ch. 2.

Please understand that the human mind of "the natural man" coexists along side the mind of Christ within every born again Christian. It often times gets in the way for interpreting scripture. The results is "human wisdom" is imparting knowledge to the saved person instead of the mind of Christ imparting His "hidden wisdom" by His Spirit (mind).

Of course, for all who ARE NOT born again, it's hopeless that they can learn anything from Christ. His Holy Spirit does not dwell within them. The best that THEY can ever do is repititious mantras of creeds, church doctrines and vain traditions of men.

Are you seriously contending that the breath of life is not the spirit of life?

All the while my breath is in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils (Job 27:3)
Notice how both are mentioned separate. Because they are not the same.

Sorry you think Jesus’ teaching is twisted and dark.

I noticed you made not one challenge to what I said.
I didn't say Jesus was twisted-Every trinity religions darkness on Earth is twisted= your teachers. Thus its your reasoning that is twisted. You don't even know what Jesus actually teaches. If i showed you , you would reject those teachings even though they are in your bible to. Every trinitarian has so far that i share them with.

Man’s breath OF Spiritual Life IS Expressly the Truth “IN his HEART.

Man’s offer is to Receive a New Seed, Spiritual new Birth, Gods Spiritual Truth in his Heart.

Prov 23:
[7] For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee.

1 Cor 2:
[11] For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.

1 Pet 1:
[23] Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.

Man’s natural Spirit is of a mans Seed…
Corruptable and subject to Death.

Man’s natural carnal Breath is Oxygen, delivered to the Lungs.

Ready, Learn, Trust the Word of God.
1Pet1 is to the little flock only.

I firmly stated Born Again from above. Christianity is a catch phrase, but they are not born again from above. If you cannot say, without a shadow of doubt, you are going to Heaven, then you aren't born again from above and you do not have the Holy Spirit.
Only these-144,000)Rev 14:3) are bought from the Earth to heaven. The Great crowd remains on Earth forever.

All the while my breath is in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils (Job 27:3)

Job.27​

[1] Moreover Job continued his parable, and said,
[2] As God liveth, who hath taken away my judgment; and the Almighty, who hath vexed my soul;
[3] All the while my breath is in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils;

Once again, all that is being said here is:
I Job have not stopped breathing to be dead, and therefore the spirit of God is still with me.

I have a challenge for you.
The symbolic 144,000 were God's faithful believers out of the nation of Israel, who lived life while under the Old Covenant, before Jesus first appeared.
These are they who were to be remembered by God, their names being written in "the book of Remembrance". Malachi 3:16-18.

We can see the "many" in Rev. 6:9-11 receiving the Gift of the Holy Spirit (white robes) upon the Death and resurrection of Christ in Mat. 27:50-54.
All should recall that the Holy Spirit had NOT YET been permanently given to anyone of the OC until AFTER Christ's death and resurrection. John 7:38-39.

Jesus IS my Teacher, as I have before said.

Thus its your reasoning that is twisted.

Your conclusion FOR me … IS based on your Belief, not MY Belief.

You don't even know what Jesus actually teaches.

Gods Word Reveals…
Lord The Son
God The Father
Almighty The Power

Rev 4:
Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come.
Rev.11
[17] Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come;


Did you miss the Lesson… WHO is called Lord?

Uh…. JESUS

Did you miss the Lesson… WHO is called
God?

Uh….FATHER

Did you miss the Lesson … WHO is called
Almighty ?

Uh CHRIST (1 Cor 1:24)

If i showed you, you would reject those teachings even though they are in your bible to.

I doubt your claim you are psychic.

Every trinitarian has so far that i share them with.

Have at it… prove the Father, and His Son are Not ONE God possessing the Same One Power.

Glory to God,

A consequence and not a benefit?
No clue where you come up with wondering that either / or… I said no such thing.

How God created IS Via His Power.

Men studying Scripture and sciences… should and some (have) discovered…

The Earth was created Before mankind.
Mankind was created Out of the Earth.

The Earth was intended to be the Habitat of manKIND.

The Earth was Intended to support, maintain the life of men.

The Man formed (BY God) out of its habitat, (Earth)…
Has in the man the same Elements in the Earth…. (Shocking; Not!)

The Elements in the Earth Has for Centuries maintained, the Bodies of men…

Nutrients, Vitamins, Metals… Gold, Silver, Potassium, Iron, nuts, seeds, roots, water, Etc. Etc.
(Seriously, not a big secret).

Your medical Doctor would vehemently oppose your thinking.

More presumption on your part…”I don’t HAVE a “medical doctor”!
