Your experience doesn't define scripture.

Psalm 139-"My soul knows it very well"
Do you deny that knowledge resides in the soul?

He is saying it in a spiritual sense. the mind has nothing to do with Spiritual things. We die, pour mind dies. Only the Spirit continues because it deals with spiritual events.

I can sense you (not you personally) are evil. That is discernment of the Spirit, not of the carnal mind.

I feel he has the Holy Spirit. That is by Spirit not the carnal mind.

You have to interpret scripture with scripture.
Where in the Bible does it say that the soul's understanding is spiritutal?

Where does it say it is carnal?

The Bible claims we are to be WISE (mind) as serpents.

That means what we feel in the spirit (1 function) our mind is to interpret that for knowledge (2nd and separate function).

No, you added the "(mind)" there in the verse, it says nothing about the soul.

Wisdom resides in the spirit
knowledge resides in the soul

Wow, you just don't get it.

Wisdom is what takes place that the soul Discerns. After the mind interprets that for knowledge it reaffirms the soul.

Wisdom is discerning a person is good or bad. The mind interprets that for knowledge and confirms what the soul has discerned. It is still TWO separate functions.

@biker, you need to stop assuming things and only reflect what the Bible says. You're doing what Paul said we should be doing= "going beyond what is written". I don't know if someone taught you these things or if you came to these conclusion on your own, but its just not Biblical, I'm sorry to be the one to tell you this.

The Body is
-Flesh
-Blood
-Bone

The Soul is
-Mind
-Will
-Emotion

The Spirit is
-Conscience
-Dwelling
-Intuition

We are a trinity of trinities. Its God's design. Its what the Bible says. Its what the dictionaries say. Its the truth.

Theoretically, it is speaking of His Baptism and His shedding of His Blood. He was our example of how we need to live. He was our Sacrifice. But that does not remove from the fact that He is still the WORD, which is Spirit!

HIS...baptism? You mean that when John baptized HIM, that was when HE was....baptized????

It is NOT speaking of HIS...baptism, sir...it is speaking of HIS...incarnation....

Right.
Our heart informs our mind
Our spirit informs our soul
Our wisdom informs our knowledge

These are all the same statement.

We disagree!
You only find things that match your belief.
Does not mean they are correct.
Just means that is what you want it to be.

If you did not have a soul, you could not discern. Since your mind is carnal, it cannot detect things on a spiritual plane. This is why we have both a soul and a mind to work together. But they are not the same.

I tried to give you a simple verse to begin proving it.....but you just dismissed it by saying "Thats a spiritual meaning"......which you couldn't prove when I asked you to.
