Genesis 2:7 absolutely teaches and always will teach that the Living Soul comes into existence as a consequence of the union of the Body and Breath of Life, and consequently, must go out of existence at the dissolution of the same: Body + Breath of Life = Living Soul comes into existence Body -...

They aren't. "But the rest of the dead (the wicked) lived not again until the thousand years were finished." They aren't. When we die, we cease to exist until the one or the other of the two resurrections. "Souls under the altar crying out" and "Abel's blood crieth out" are symbolic...

Agreed. Yet, the Immortal Soul crowd cannot afford to give up what they consider this passage to be: "proof" that when we die, we go on living, the very sound of which is ridiculous. Death is the OPPOSITE of life, not the continuation thereof.

No it isn't. It's an "energy source" the same way God is the "life source". Scripture repeatedly describes God's "Breath of Life" as His "life-giving principle" which animates the inanimate.

Solomon says man and the animals have "one" breath, so that the one has no "preeminence" over the other. In the same way God gives the Body of a man His Breath of Life to cause the Living Human Soul to come into existence, so God gives the Body of a dog His breath of Life to cause the Living...

"The Soul that sinneth, IT SHALL DIE". No such thing as an "immortal soul".

"And the Lord God formed man of the Dust of the ground, breathed into his nostrils the Breath of Life, and Dust of the ground BECAME a Living Soul." - Genesis 2:7 KJV Q. At what point does chocolate milk come into existence? A. When we mix cocoa with milk. Q. At what point does a red dress...

You're reading this wrong because you REFUSE to allow Genesis 2:7 KJV to inform you that the Soul comes into existence as a consequence of the union of the Body and Breath of Life. Body + Breath of Life = LIVING Soul Body - Breath of Life = DEAD Soul Can light continue to exist when...

"And in hell he lift up his EYES, being in torments, and seeth Lazarus afar off..." "...Lazarus in the BOSOM of Abraham". "...dip his FINGER in water..." "...cool my TONGUE for I am tormented in this flame." "...send Lazarus that he may dip...send him to my father's house..." (both errands...

True, there's certainly historical value to be had - however, when it comes to topics like "what happens when we die" such mysteries can only be solved with divinely inspired answers.

Doubt it...because Lazarus was abundantly blessed in the end. A better explanation is found by comparing two Bible verses: 1) Abraham's refusal to send Lazarus back from the dead to warn the brothers because "they have Moses and the Prophets...if they will not believe Moses and the Prophets...

Parables must be INTERPRETED. When Jesus said the angels would come and "reap" the harvest fields and gather the "wheat" and burn the "tares" in the "harvest" - He was using SYMBOLIC elements to represent spiritual fact and reality - the Judgment. The same holds true for the Rich Man and...

I'll pass, thank you. I don't believe apocryphal books are inspired - the same conclusion which the Protestant Reformers came to once the 1000+ year papal ban on Scripture was discarded and the Bible was once again put into the language of the people.

It absolutely says they have eyes, tongues, fingers, bosoms, legs to carry a warning to the Rich Man's brother! You Immortal Soul crowd folks deny what's plainly written in red and white, but somehow are able to see "disembodied bodies" in the pages of Scripture while never actually sharing...

OK, my turn: The Rich Man and company are said to have bodies! Where is the verse which testifies to the dead being clothed in bodies while they're dead? If you can't find such a text (and you won't) then the passage is as symbolic as the angel reapers coming with sickles to collect wheat...

Immortal Soul crowd, you can't have it both ways - can't have your cake and eat it, too: You can't argue disembodied souls of the dead go straight to heaven or hell, purgatory, Abe's bosom, paradise (by which you affirm only the living have bodies - the "mortal" and "resurrection" - as...

Sorry, we need an example that establishes a LITERAL "post-death/pre-resurrection" body with LITERAL eyes, fingers, bosoms, tongues - like you all claim the Rich Man and company have. Paul's clearly speaking of the resurrection body here...we need proof for your "disembodied body" that...

Let's get back to my original point: Paul says in 2 Corinthians 5:1 there are two kinds of bodies: our mortal body before we die and our resurrection body in the resurrection when Jesus comes in glory. Unless you can point me to a verse - not opinions - which describes a "third category of...

Amen brother. It's so clear, even a blind man can see it. His parables either dealt with the kingdom of God or warning the Jews to repent or soon suffer rejection. What the flip do people think He meant by "The time is fulfilled"? Lunch time? Prime time? Zodiac time? He was talking about the...

I did ask...I asked for a verse that establishes a "third category of body" in addition to the two Paul mentions in 2 Cor. 5:1 KJV. So far, you've only presented your own ideas, not Biblical proof. The Breath of Life aka "Spirit of Life" is the "life giving principle of God that animates the...
