Why do we need to be born again of His Spirit? Is it not because our minds/hearts/wills and emotions are spiritually dead, and needing to be born again? A new heart and spirit God has put in those who are born of His Spirit. Not another or new life (soul) but a renewed heart, and spirit (mind).

Yes, our spirit is spiritually dead in trespasses and sins, and for this reason our spirit must be born again! That happens when our MIND has been enlightened through His Spirit in us. Our mind must go from begin carnal and of this world, to spiritual and of heaven when our...

Yes, we make choices with our mind. Our mind is natural apart from the Spirit in us, or spiritual with His Spirit in us. To be a living soul is to possess life. We possess life (soul) in both body and spirit. We make choices with our spirit which affects our living soul. Which means that...

It really is simply Ritajanice! I believe you already know this. Unless our spirit that is our mind/heart in us is changed from natural to spiritual through His Spirit in us we cannot know Christ. Exactly! And now your MIND is fixed on spiritual things because you have been born again of...

If the mind in man does not have the Spirit in them through new birth, he/she remains natural human and cannot know the mind, will, ways of God. You don't explain how the Holy Spirit in us changes us. We only have spiritual enlightenment when our MIND goes from natural to spiritual. Why...

Exactly! But two part man became a "living soul". And soul is what we are as long as we have life. The life believers have both natural in this world, and shall be spiritual in heaven. Both on earth as physical body, and in heaven as spiritual body whosoever has been born again is a "living...

How does the Spirit testify with our spirit? It is re-birth of our mind, which spirit is, that we are changed from natural mind of this earth, to a spiritual mind of heavenly truths. It is through our mind/spirit that we receive by grace through faith understanding through Christ's Spirit in...

Yes, but God, A Spirit became a human being. That means that Jesus Christ with body + spirit became a living soul. Yes, Christ breathed His Spirit into His disciples before sending them out. In the same way God breathed His breath of life (Spirit) into Adam and he became a living soul...

How do you differentiate between spirit and mind? In the Stong's Greek spirit is defined as both the Holy Spirit AND to be spiritually minded - our mind is spirit, with the natural mind without the presence of the Holy Spirit belonging to natural man, but the spiritually minded, through the...

Paul is praying that professing believers may be complete, that they may with their whole spirit (inward man; mind, heart, will), soul (whole life) and body (outward physical man abstain from sin) would be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord. Man is made of body + spirit and became...

The creation account given by Moses does not agree with you. Man is formed of the dust of the earth (outer body) and the LORD God breathed into his nostrils the breath (spirit, that gives our outer body life) of life and man became a living soul (something that possesses life). Every living...

Who has said "salvation is for the world"? Certainly not I. Are you even replying to this thread or are you so confused that you are bringing replies from other posts into this one? Are you being deliberately obtuse? The supernatural healings done by Jesus and His disciples proved that...

Was not the Gospel the message of the Savior, the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world, proclaimed through the Law and Prophets of Old? Paul says that Israel knew, and that even Abraham heard the Gospel of Christ. Romans 10:12-21 (KJV) For there is no difference between the Jew and...

Below appears to be a plausible answer. So when did the 70 years begin? Adding 70 years to 538 would take us back to 607 BC (if we reckon inclusively), but that is earlier than Jeremiah’s first prophecy, and earlier than even the first deportation. The first deportation occurred in 605 BC...

If divine healing belongs to the children of God, why do Christians physically DIE? I read Scripture that tells us that ALL without exception, for even Christ died, are DESTINED to death! The atoning blood that Christ shed gives eternal life to our spirit NOW, and our physical body too shall...

The OP seeks to show healing is not a matter of having enough faith. Why? If we are healed spiritually through the atoning blood of Christ, according to grace through faith, does it not stand to reason that physical healing also can only be accomplished by our faith? The answer is that the...

Who, but perhaps you? has argued that Jesus no longer heals people! You are chomping for a debate about whether or not God still heals man supernaturally according to man's faith! Fine! Begin your own thread and argue to your hearts delight!

You bring faith healing into the discussion where the OP asks whether or not physical healing is provided in Christ's atonement. I haven't seen any here argue for or against the supernatural healing power that comes from God. That doesn't appear to be the purpose of the OP. If you wish to...

TS, I have only one observation/question for you. You don't acknowledge the prophecies to have dual fulfillment, so my question to you is do you believe it was the faithful from Israel that brought all this ruin? I believe when we speak of prophesy, we must take into account how ethnic Israel...

How are the two distinct? I view the genealogies differ by showing Christ is both fully human and fully Divine. Luke proves Christ to be the Son of God, therefore fully Divine and Matthew proves Christ was born of man, David, making Him fully human. See Luke 3:23-38 & Matthew 1:1-16...
