Why "Soul" and "Spirit"?
orion77:
The life is in the blood. The blood of the lamb, who takes away the sins of the world. The shedding of blood is what paid for our sins. The human at conception is kept alive and born by the blood of the mother and the seed of the father.
In the same way Jesus came first, before the creation, so the fetus relies on the blood before birth, before the breath of life enters the baby. As in the natural so is the spiritual.
Spiritually speaking, it is the same for us while alive. While carnal we rely on our mother the church, until born again, this time with the Holy Spirit (wind) or breath. Then as we mature we come out of her and move on to the spiritual things of God.
God bless,

YES!!! :D I see it that way to.... seeing the physical verses the spiritual. In that 'death' came through one man (the FIRST Adam) and life came through ONE (the SECOND Adam, a life-giving spirit).
Through the first Adam we partake of his 'blood'... in a physical, corruptible sense.... DYING from the day that we are 'born' (even conceived).
Through the second Adam we partake if His BLOOD, SPIRITUALLY, pure and incorruptible and LIFE-giving....
Joh 6:53 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.
Joh 6:54 Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.
Joh 6:55 For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.
Joh 6:56 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.[/list:u]
God breathed life into Adam and he became a living soul.... body + spirit = soul.... and we through Adam (and Eve)... yet we have NO LIFE in us... :cry: for the flesh profits NOTHING.
1Co 15:45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
So cool!! 8)

Like you, I too question Strong's definitons. They did not satisfy years of study concerning man being a spirit and body. I have asked for an explanation of the following verse several times with no one coming up to the plate with an answer.
1Thess 5:23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless....
Now I'm going to add two more. Mary the mother of Jesus separates spirit and soul:
Luke 1:46 And Mary said, "My soul doth magnify the Lord, 47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my savior.
The writer of Hebrews distinguishes three parts.
Heb 4:12 For the word of God is quick and powerful and sharper than any two edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow (body parts right?).
I now have more than the first unanswered verse begging for explanation. So once again I'll ask for some one to give me a good explanation for man being biparte instead of triparte. And another misinterpretation IMO :wink: from Genesis and Strong's isn't what I'm looking for. I've known about both of them for a long long time. Please give honest and sincere dialogue.
