Hello @Taken,Yes the Earth is Dry Land.
Yes the surface of the Earth is Dust.
Yes Dust is called ground.
Yes thee Lord God formed the dust.
Yes thee Lord God called the form Man.
Yes the Form is called a BODY.
Yes God Blew His Breath into the BODY
Yes the MAN is now a living, Body & Soul.
I asked what you meant.
You quoted Scripture, which Did Not explain what You meant.
The Scripture reveals the Form, (Body).
You said nothing about the Form, (Body)
But said:
Either you meant the BODY, is not relevant, non existant, or that a Body With Gods Breath in a Soul, In the Body, completes the man making the man Whole, Body and Soul, or something else...you didn't explain what You meant, which was the Question, that only You can explain what You meant.
Curious also, as to What you believe happens to the Living Soul and the Living Body, AT the time of Physical Death of a Man.
Glory to God,
Taken
I'm sorry if my response was disappointing. I thought that the verse I quoted said all that needed to be said. For God made man from the dust of the ground, breathed into his nostrils the breath of life and man became a living soul. That is what I believe the soul to be.
At death, the body goes back to the ground from whence it came, and the spirit (or breath of life) goes back to God who gave it (Eccl. 12:7). The body without the spirit, is a dead soul. That the soul can die is a matter of record. 'the soul that sinneth it shall die' (Ezekiel 18:4 & 20); and as 'all have sinned and come short of the glory of God', then all will die.
The soul is not immortal (1 Cor. 15:53). It awaits the resurrection of the dead (Romans 8:11). For there is no life apart from resurrection.
I hope this is more satisfactory.
In Christ Jesus
