Nick………….Yes the (ANOINTING always existed it was GOD'S Presents and Indeed that Anointing was (in )The anointed Jesus. I really do not believe , you believe Jesus preexisted His berth on earth either. Maybe your just afraid to say it because of T8 or something. peace and love to you and yours……………………..gene

Irene ………..You are partly right, you said intellect helps us understand the things of men, that is right , but God's Spirit also helps us understand the things of God and it is Just a Higher level of Intellect given to us by GOD.

Terricca……….So you don't believe where it say “so a man think so he is” right?. So your Spirit is void of intellects well that does seem to fit you. No wisdom, No understandings, no knowledge.

To all……I am after a general consensus of what Spirit (IS), what can we compare it to , to help us better understand it. I used the metaphor of a lake of Water which can be dipped into and poured out into vessels to show two things, like water it can be added to , and taken away, it can be increased or decreased . There is what you might…[Read more]

Nick……….There can exist No soul without a Body + Spirit in it. both must be present to be a Soul, any permit separation of these the person no longer exists. Why do you think Jesus was raised up with a Body if it was not necessary for him to have one, use you head man think!. A body is one thing and Spirit another, but it takes Both to be…[Read more]

Jodi………..Amen Sis, Jesus' victory was over himself. and the pulls of (HIS) Flesh. He was putting himself to death when he was being tempted , by that which was within Him. The Spirit of God in him was greater then what was in the world (his flesh body). You nailed it Girl.peace and love to you and yours Jodi…………………………gene

Seeking truth……….Have you considered what i posted in reply to your brother, Something i see we do agree on and that is the Spirit is connected with Powers. And these spirit powers do effect every thing that exists. Kerwin thoughts on the spirit being a guidance is also right i believe. “For the Spirit (BOTH) accuses us and defends Us, I…[Read more]

Quote (Gene @ Sep. 28 2009,03:10)The Idea that Spirit is (intellect) should not be surprising to any one , JESUS SAID THE WORD I AM TELLING YOU (ARE) SPIRIT AND LIFE, we just need to think about what a WORD is, it is the EXPRESSION OF INTELLECT, that is (ALL) a WORD IS. There are words of Man (lower form of intellect) and there are Words of GOD…[Read more]

To All……….We Honor Jesus , we worship GOD the FATHER , Just as Jesus Did, He was not worshiping himself, He said if i Glorify myself my glory is nothing. And again he said I have glorified You (the Father) upon the earth. Jesus worshiped and glorified God the Father ONLY. We are to do the same as He did, He is our example for having a proper…[Read more]

Karmaie………We are told this same Jesus will return as He went up and all the world will see Him , He went up from them with a BODY of Flesh and Bone, He was not a Spirit but a living Soul and will return back as such. He will be able to drink and eat and enjoy life with us all. There exist no such thing as a Spirit (being) out side of God the…[Read more]
