A sheep in wolf's clothing.
For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
(Hebrews 4:12) KJV
We asked: what’s the difference between the soul and spirit? We concluded that the spirit is the breath that animates us and gives us life, but that the soul is our consciousness and personality.

But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man. For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.
(1 Corinthians 2:14-16) KJV
If human life is a trinity of spirit, soul and body, and the Bible teaches us that this is copied from God, who is a trinity of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, then what can we deduce about the nature of God?

And he stretched himself upon the child three times, and cried unto the LORD, and said, O LORD my God, I pray thee, let this child’s soul come into him again. And the LORD heard the voice of Elijah; and the soul of the child came into him again, and he revived.
(1 Kings 17-21-22) KJV
The connection between the soul and the blood, as the life of the individual, is strong but there’s more to it than that. The soul isn’t simply the result of the spirit dissolving in the blood.

He shall redeem their soul from deceit and violence: and precious shall their blood be in his sight.
(Psalms 72:14) KJV
When God breathed life into Adam he became a living soul, so there’s a connection between life, blood and breath (spirit), which is why the Children of Israel and the early Church had prohibitions on eating blood or meat with blood in it.

And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.
(Genesis 1:20-23) KJV
The biological definition of life and what the Bible describes as living aren’t the same thing. This is important to know as we see how the process of creation unfolded. Biology is the foundation of secular humanism.
Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.
(Revelation 22:14-15) KJV
In the Bible the word dogs is often a euphemism for morally depraved people. There are no dogs in heaven, but does this mean that there are no Canines in heaven?

The hand of the diligent shall bear rule: but the slothful shall be under tribute.
(Proverbs 12:24) KJV
This is a big deal. It’s a game changer. It’s a means by which you can come to know God in a way that you probably didn’t think was possible. It’s going to take some work though.
This isn’t a pill you can swallow and wake up with the full knowledge of how the Bible is in perfect harmony with science.
For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.
(Psalm 16:10) KJV
The reason for hell is: the temporary storage of the accumulated impurity and corruption which is inherent in creation. It’s a consequence of the creation of gravity, and it’s required for the purification of creation.

So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
(Romans 10:17) KJV
Preaching the Word of God is a form of energy which has the potential to transform a soul from being dead to being alive (quickened). The sound of the preaching (energy) acts through the spirit of the listener.

And if a soul sin, and hear the voice of swearing, and is a witness, whether he hath seen or known of it; if he do not utter it, then he shall bear his iniquity.
(Leviticus 5:1) KJV
If the words that Jesus Christ spoke are words of life to those who hear and believe them, then what are swear words? The words of death? Swearing is an indicator of a soul’s condition.
