IF the body is the dust of the earth, AND the spirit is from God, THEN the soul is us: our consciousness and personality.

We just wanted to write SciFi
For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
(Hebrews 4:12) NKJV
We began our evangelistic ministry on Twitter thinking that it would be a great way to promote our Christian SciFi novel Biblio’s Blood.

And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
(1 Thessalonians 5:23) KJV
IF the body is the dust of the earth, AND the spirit is from God, THEN the soul is us: our consciousness and personality.

Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.
(Jeremiah 1:5) KJV
Our study of Dragon taxonomy led us to consider the nature, identity and location of Satan. This intersected with our deductive exploration of the difference between soul and spirit.

Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.
(Luke 22:3) KJV
And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.
And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
(Revelation 12:3, 9) KJV
Satan is described as a great red dragon, but he also entered Judas Iscariot. Obviously a great red dragon didn’t enter Judas Iscariot, so how did Satan do it?

And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
(Revelation 12:9) KJV
Satan (adversary) is described here as a physical* being. However even Christians who are otherwise orthodox and fundamental don’t think that he is one.

And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother’s blood crieth unto me from the ground.
(Genesis 4:10) KJV
We find our next clue in Genesis 4. The injured party, Abel, is crying out in pain and anguish in a way that the Lord can hear but Abel’s body is dead and his blood is now seeping into the ground.

The hand of the diligent will rule, while the slothful will be put to forced labor.
(Proverbs 12:24) ESV
The Holy spirit knows the difference between the soul and spirit, therefore it should be possible for us to know it too. That’s the reward we get for being diligent, and discerning nuance.

God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.
(John 4:24) ESV
God is a spirit doesn’t mean that God is mystical and undefined, it means His physical nature is that of a vapor. However, God is more than just a Spirit so it’s accurate to say that God has a Spirit.

For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him. And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together.
(Colossians 1:16-17) ESV
As strange as it may sound we have to overcome the ridiculous notion that God created the universe from nothing. Invisible isn’t nothing it’s unseen, like the air we breath. It’s made of atoms and molecules like everything else.
