The question that comes to mind is how is mankind eternally saved when they are born again if we do not continue to have spiritual life in heaven after our body dies? Mankind that has been born again of the Spirit sent from Christ HAS ETERNAL LIFE. Christ does not promise we shall have...

The way I have come to understand creation of mankind: 1. body = the outer shell of flesh & bone (Created by God from the dust of the earth) 2. spirit = the inner self, gives life to the body, process center directing every bodily function, encompasses man's mind, heart, appetite, will and...

We are living souls whether we are in Christ or not. Every living creature on the earth is a living soul through their body of flesh and the breath of life (spirit). Yes, our spirit only has eternal life in Christ through Christ's Spirit in us. A living soul is body + spirit OR a living soul...

The spirit in man without the presence of the Spirit from Christ is spiritually dead already, though physically alive. Paul calls this being "dead in trespasses and sins." Our spirit is only eternally alive in Christ, being born again of His Spirit and can never die. In heaven that spiritual...

Soul defines the whole man alive with body + spirit (breath of life). Man can kill the body, but man cannot kill the living soul endowed with the Spirit from Christ in us. Death of our physical body without the Spirit of Christ in us comes when the breath of life, that gives our physical body...

How will those having the Holy Spirit keeping them in Christ not continue in faith, and not endure to the end? Why do we read IF, if it is possible to be lost after we have the Holy Spirit in us? Because there are FALSE professors among us who appear outwardly to be eternally in Christ, but...

A problem with understanding Biblical doctrine comes from some because they seem to believe that everyone who claims to be Christian and belonging to the body of Christ outwardly have truly been born again! We cannot forget that together with believers are found false...

God, unambiguously tells us that He created man with a body of flesh & bone of the earth, and that He breathed into them the breath of life (spirit) and the two BECAME a "living soul." Because where there is a soul, there is life! That life (soul) can be in a physical body of earth or in a...

It's true animals are not born again of the Spirit from Christ, but to be a living soul animals, like humans must have both the breath of life (spirit) and a body of flesh and bone. In that way animals too, like humans having the breath of life are called 'living souls.' God is showing us how...

What you seem to be missing is that for a soul to be alive it must have both a body and the breath of life. Because without the breath of life the body is only a corpse, whether animal or human without the breath of life we are DEAD. And the 'breath of life' that God breathed into man when He...

Of course, eternal life that NEVER ends is heavenly and spiritual because it is not of this earth. And furthermore, it NEVER shall be of THIS earth! For His Eternal Kingdom is within us! At least those of us who have been born again of His Spirit. Once the Holy Spirit gives us new birth from...

Look for example at the Old Covenant nation of Israel. They were enlightened to the truth through the Law and Prophets, but only the elect remnant of them were saved by grace through faith, believing Messiah would come. The rest died in the wilderness in unbelief! To be enlightened through...

Yes, those of Old who believed in the Messiah foretold them through the Law and Prophets belonged to the Old Covenant people of God. The Good Olive Tree. Those cut off remained in unbelief. Though outwardly the whole nation appeared to be the Covenant people of God, only those who believed in...

You're the one arguing ETERNAL life Christ promises to all who believe in Him, is NOT really ETERNAL after all. And you're the one that cannot reconcile verses that you believe tell us our life with Christ is not ETERNAL because we can fall away and be forever lost, with the verses that give us...

I would say God has endowed animals with abilities that bring Him glory, but they do not have a conscience knowledge/understanding of their Creator. Animals know only that which comes naturally from God to them. The only way to know the Spirit of God from the fall is to have the Spirit of God...

The difference between the spirit (breath of life) given mankind and animals WAS in the beginning the ability to communicate with God. That's what set animals and humans apart. Animals never possess this ability. And man lost that ability when they heeded the voice of evil and disobeyed God...

Your dog could not have physical life without spirit. The spirit is the breath of life that every living breathing creature has to give their body physical life. The animal kingdom possesses a spirit or breath of life just as humankind also does. Genesis 2:7 (KJV) And the LORD God formed...

I know this is a common doctrine taught, but according to the creation account in Genesis we read that God created man from dust of the earth and breathed the breath of life (spirit) into him and man became a living soul. Genesis 2:7 (KJV) And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the...

Romans 11:2 (KJV) God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew. Wot ye not what the scripture saith of Elias? how he maketh intercession to God against Israel, saying,

They were broken off their own NATURAL tree because of unbelief. If we say we have faith and believe in Christ, but then like the natural branches, it will be shown that we too are in unbelief. You underlined the caveat, we MUST continue in His goodness, and if we do not we show ouselves to be...
