The are three that bear witness in the earth [flesh], the spirit and the water and the blood, and these three are on.

So maybe animals have a spirit, maybe the don't. Have you tried asking Jesus?

As far as myself, I was lead to the three states of matter, SOLID/LIQUID/GAS are all required to form the flesh of all physical creatures, which brings into question a long held interpretation that the LORD God formed man from the dust of the ground theory since dust of the earth would fulfill the SOLID matter, the breath of life, or air would be the matter in the state of GAS.

And even if you dew find the third state of matter, LIQUID in the text, I couldn't help but question the three states of matter being sufficient to animate the body of mass. So needless to say when in the course of trying to reconcile the I found it interesting that it is written in John 3:5, 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 the eternal God.

Since this is Christmas and I don't feel like debating so if they think the LORD could have formed the dust without water into living man by breathing into the nostrils of the man, if anyone reads the 2nd Chapter of Genesis then dew consider Proverbs 3:19-20.

But a funny story about the question if plants have a spirit, I have some periwinkles in small flowerbed where I live. A couple of summers ago it was hot here, real hot and dry and while periwinkles handle the climate pretty good with little help, I suddenly recalled having not water them for some time and while the have a high drought tolerance, they can't live without water. Since it had been over several weeks since they where watered, I knew they needed more water than the morning dew provided.

As one that talks to plants, I had to explain to them what I had let so long pass without watering them, so as I am watering them I am talking to them when out of nowhere, I start hearing a sound coming from the flowerbed. As I got closer the more obvious the sound was coming from the periwinkles. It was like a pssh sound, or a popping sound and it started getting a little louder as more of the plants began popping.

I already knew I was crazy talking to plants in the first place, yet if anyone is familiar with periwinkles or has ever heard something about the causation for that popping sound they made, I would appreciate hearing about it. My guess is that the very dry plants began forming air pockets in their stems as the tissue dried up. So by watering them, they begin begin absorbing the water, as the stems became hydrated the trapped air being forced out, resulting in that popping sound. I never could find out anything about it.

Anyways, hope everyone's holidays are safe and happy

I think teaching kids or any baby christians that God hates is a bad idea. First teach them the gospel, when they have an understanding of God and theyre faith is solid then show them these verses. Teaching people God hates will scare people away more than anything.

The purpose of this thread is like the purpose of all the threads to discuss the word of God and the soul and body is the same as the bible suggest
Seeing how you say that the purpose of this thread is "to discuss the Word of God", what, do you suppose, based upon "the Word of God", your heart attitude towards the lost should be?

Also, again, the Bible does not suggest that the soul and the body are the same thing. In fact, in the New Testament, the underlying Greek word which is translated as "soul" is "psyche"...

Greek Lexicon :: G5590 (KJV)

...and it is from such a Greek word that we derive such English words as "psychiatry"...

Online Etymology Dictionary

psychiatry (n.)

1846, from French psychiatrie, from Medieval Latin psychiatria, literally "a healing of the soul," from Latinized form of Greek psykhe- "mind" (see psyche) + iatreia "healing, care" (see -iatric).
...and psychosis:

Online Etymology Dictionary

psychosis (n.)

1847, "mental derangement," Modern Latin, from Greek psykhe- "mind" (see psyche) + -osis "abnormal condition." Greek psykhosis meant "a giving of life; animation; principle of life."
As such, the word "soul", as used in the New Testament, has to do with our own "psyches":

Online Etymology Dictionary

psyche (n.)

1640s, "animating spirit," from Latin psyche, from Greek psykhe "the soul, mind, spirit; breath; life, one's life, the invisible animating principle or entity which occupies and directs the physical body; understanding" (personified as Psykhe, the beloved of Eros), akin to psykhein "to blow, cool," from PIE root *bhes- "to blow, to breathe" (source also of Sanskrit bhas-), "Probably imitative" [Watkins].

Also in ancient Greek, "departed soul, spirit, ghost," and often represented symbolically as a butterfly or moth. The word had extensive sense development in Platonic philosophy and Jewish-influenced theological writing of St. Paul (compare spirit (n.)). Meaning "human soul" is from 1650s. In English, psychological sense "mind," is attested by 1910.
Seeing how "the LORD hates" a "lying tongue" and a "false witness" (Proverbs 6:16-19), you really should change your own doctrine to line up with His Word.
