GOD IS A SPIRIT by Kay Daniels

A young man sent me a message,
"Sir my friend brought up this question on our bible study group and it got me confused

Sir his question had me wondering if the breathe of life is the soul of man or the soul of man is the breath of life plus the dust (body) or is the soul another thing all together." When I listened to the voice notes, I discovered that his friend had issues with man been refered to as a spirit. In his words, he does not believe that man is a Spirit. 

In his words, "man is just a mortal being" Here is a my response. 

God (a Spirit) said let us create man after our image (spirit appearance) and likeness (spirit character, attitudes, behaviours) and this gives them dominion nature.

In Genesis 2:7, he went to the earth and made from the earth, a body. He breath into this body, the breath of life or the spirit man, and this body became a living soul.

 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

The spirit man (the components of the breath of God) made the body a living soul.

God is a Spirit and they that must worship him must do so in spirit and in truth ...

It takes a Spirit (God) to relate with a spirit.

 John 4:24  God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

Man is a Spirit, that has a soul (imagination, memory, intellect, emotion and will) and lives in a body.

God created man, male and female created them....

Genesis 1:27  So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

Man is a Spirit, male and female are mortals....but man is the spirit nature, that is man that is like God  - immortal...that is the part of man Jesus said would would be quickened at the time of judgment....

In a male and female, there is a man ( spirit).

Anything that has its own life, has a spirit.... It takes a Spirit to speak to a spirit...

John 6:63, ....John 6:63  It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.

John 3:5-6  Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

That which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

If a man is born of the Spirit, then he is spirit.

To becomes a son of God is to be born a spirit.....

John 1:12  But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:

Spiritual understanding is key to interpreting scriptures....and not just what you think....

You need precepts (inspiration or divine ideas) before concepts (what you think)

May we receive spiritual understanding to capture and retain the truth.
