That is your doctrinal understanding of mankind. But Scripture disagrees with you. Man is created with physical body + spirit (breath of life) and together the two became living souls. Where is your biblical proof texts that mankind is a tri-part being?

I do not promote the doctrine of John Calvin. I support and defend Biblical doctrine. But I often find that when doctrinal differences (and there are many) cannot be defended, some will resort to libeling and labeling to deflect away attention that may prove the doctrines we've embraced come...

I know what you've said. And I keep telling you that we are not tri-part beings as God is. We are body with spirit and together the TWO are living souls. You continue to argue that living souls are spirit within our flesh, but God says we are created with body + spirit (breath of life) and...

I replied according to the words you spoke, not 1stCenturyLady.

No, as I've shown believing anything is naturally possible. But faith to believe in Christ comes supernaturally when we hear the Gospel according to grace through faith, and the power of the Holy Spirit. Before this ability to believe comes to natural man supernaturally, he/she is "dead in...

You do need to hear the Word (Gospel) to receive faith to believe. Even the devils believe in God. And their faith (believing) leaves them trembling. Romans 10:17 (KJV) So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. James 2:19 (KJV) Thou believest that there is one...

Have I questioned or disagreed with this? Could you provide Scriptural proof texts that tell us our soul is our mind? What I find throughout Scripture is that where 'soul' is mentioned, it is reference to a living breathing being. The only exception is when Scripture says the faithful are...

Yes, I now understand how limited your understanding of Biblical doctrine truly is. I appreciate you praying that God would help me to understand what it means to be born again, but I'm afraid you are too late because I have biblical understanding of being born again. I too shall pray that God...

Your soul is body + spirit = living soul. What we are inhabited by flesh is spirit, which is to have a mind/heart/will/emotions. As spirit is the control center of everything we think or do. Our spirit controls through our mind and body functions every action or inaction we can think or...

They knew of The Redeemer who is the promised Messiah that would come, Christ Jesus, our Lord. Both the Law and Prophets point to Him. Very sad really, because the coming of The Messiah who would redeem them was repeatedly foretold to the Jews. Long before the Gentiles knew of Christ Jesus...

I'm glad you say "my opinion"! Without having a mind/brain our heart ceases to function. You have it backwards. The Word preached speaks to us (spirit) through our mind and if we believe the Gospel we get a new heart that yearns from the mind to the heart to know Christ better. We can only...

The conscience of man and the reactions from the mind of our heart or conscience comes from spirit directing within. Before being born again the spirit in man is natural or of the earth, and spiritually "dead in trespasses and sins". For this reason, we must be born again of the Spirit of...

After telling us how God will sanctify us WHOLLY, that is our whole or complete spirit (complete or whole; mind, heart, will and emotions) and soul (complete or whole life) and your body (shall be resurrected immortal & incorruptible) by committin our lives to the doctrine of Paul from the Holy...

Fair enough, if we don't include Scripture to prove what we believe, then it can be assumed that we have presented only our opinion. How does our mind become enlightened by the Spirit? According to what is written this enlightenment comes according to grace through faith by hearing the Word...

If my reply was "nothing biblical" as you ASSUME, then perhaps you would be kind enough to teach me how my reply has "nothing biblical"? Present Scripture to PROVE what you ALLEGE because I shall not be corrected by ones OPINIONS!

Do you believe it is only my opinion, or is it Biblical truth?

Well, indeed it does get the seekers to focus on the faith healer rather than the true HEALER!

I was the one replying, so I chose to say I did not believe his comments merit my reply! Maybe I should have made it clear that I wasn't implying anyone else might think little of his reply as I do.

Our enlightened minds when we are born again of Christ's Spirit are first given to understand the Gospel of Christ. This through the message about Christ and the power of His Spirit opening our minds and hearts so that we can know/believe with spiritual eyes and ears that we have been born...

I believe Paul understands that mankind is made of body + spirit and the two became a "living soul". Scripture often uses soul to speak of living, breathing beings. Because where life exists there exists a living soul.
