Nick,

Acts covers baptism in the name of Jesus best but other books of Scripture mention it as well.

Terraica,

Will you dare to boldly speak where Scripture choose to remain silent?

Nick,

I agree because Jesus cannot be both the Anointed of God and God himself.

It is like having two masters either you believe one or the other but not both and if you believe Jesus is not God but claim he is then you are lying.

Gene,

I am looking for evidence based on Scripture.

Genesis 2:7 teaches us the soul is non-living before we are made in our mother’s womb.

Nick,

Hi KW,

Do you believe the logic of men is the ultimate proof of divine wisdom?

I will answer with a question base on Scripture.

Are you confident Jesus spoke truth when he stated Scripture cannot be broken (John 10:35)?

Nick,

I realize there is an alternative way to understand those words. My purpose in asking the question is to disprove or prove it.

Nick,

God said he appointed Jeremiah as a prophet to the nations before he formed him in his mother’s womb.

I do not not know the argument as it is not mine but the point I mentioned above seems one those that think it is true would use.

Gene,

The purpose of my question us to test that hypothesis.

David,

The Roman Empire methods were the inspiration of justice of that time.

To all,

The question I have is, are human souls preexistent?

Nick and David,

It is fear, and a fear I understand. Faith overcomes fear but faith must be learned. When love is protected there is no fear. The people of that time were trained to be resilient but the children are even more resilient. We need to seek God’s righteousness and his kingdom.

Terrarica,

I have addressed you Scriptures but you have not answered my last question. If I do not understand where you are coming from then how can I correct your misunderstanding?

Terrarica,

Do you believe Jesus’ soul preexists the conception of his body in Mary?

AndrewAD,

This who have the Spirit of God were there at creation and created the world, at least the part that is the Spirit of God.

Only Jesus is the means by why all other human beings receive and live by the Spirit.

Terrarica,

Jn 3:13 No one has ever gone into heaven except the one who came from heaven—the Son of Man.

Does this mean you continue to hold on to the ideal that Jesus bodily descended from heaven even though you know
1) Scripture declares he was conceived in Mary
2) Scripture declares that in regards to the body he was made of the Seed of D…[Read more]

T8,

Hi t8,

The ONLY part of a man that remains original is the SOUL.

The spirit leaves and the new body is put over the old if you are of Christ.

The soul of man does not preexist but came from the breath of God at creation as genesis shows

I tend to agree.

When did Jesus receive his spirit? 2000 or so years ago or before the…

Danny Dabbs,

To all who deny the pre-existence of God’s monogenes Son:

John 6:62 “Then what if you see the Son of Man ascend to where he was before!“

Matthew 13:10-16New English Translation (NET Bible)

10 Then the disciples came to him and said, “Why do you speak to them in parables?” 11 He replied, “You have been given the opportunity to know the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but they have not. 12 For whoever has will be given more, and will have an abundance. But whoever does not h…

Terrarica,

Those who live according to the Spirit will live forever.

Jesus is the way to receive and live by the Spirit.

Same message taught to the woman at the well though different symbolism.

t8,

If you are a genuine follower of Jesus and you have even one error then you are presumptuous to consider yourself a teacher. It is not something God takes lightly. We would be wise to watch our lives and doctrines.
