Sin and consequently, death. Romans 7:14 For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, sold under sin.

Never argued it isn't but where sin abounds, grace abounds even more. Romans 5:20 Moreover the law entered that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more, Stop being such a party pooper. :ROFL: Christ gives us hope in the here and now as much as He does...

Grace is what sustains us to do what is right and to overcome our failures and weaknesses. Grace is what enables us to serve righteousness, yet you would have us believe it is not enough to stop us from sinning? :confused: 2 Corinthians 12:9 And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for...

You must be one heck of a miserable believer if you can never chose not to sin. The very fact you are choosing to serve righteousness means you are simultaneously choosing not to sin. Why do you think God supplies us with His grace?

You should do more homework. The origin is unknown. It may be "God's truth" or it may be "it is truth", no-one really knows. It's usage is not as you have tried to make it either. Strongly recommend you don't try and tell an Aussie how to use their language.

Adam became a living soul, not a living soul,spirit. Gen.2:7 The Holy Spirit indwells the body, not the spirit and that has only occurred since Pentecost. 1Cor.6:19 Before then, the Holy Spirit came upon men Num.11:25 Jud.3:10 1Sam.11:6 bringing them the word. 1Kings 18:1 Jer.1:4 God does not...

Like I said I can say the same of you. Proverbs 14:12 There is a way that seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death. Your arrogance will be the death of you.

I can say the same of you. Have a nice day.

And being spiritually dead means you have no spirit just as being physically dead means you have no body. Job was a believer and therefore spiritually alive. The Zechariah passage you quote does not say the same as the passage you wrote out, so not sure what translations you used but either way...

The Holy Spirit doesn't. Any who are still dead in their sin are unbelievers with no spiritual life, hence no human spirit. This is why we must be born from above. Jn.3:3-7 3Jesus answered him, “Most certainly I tell you, unless one is born anew, he can’t see God’s Kingdom.” 4Nicodemus said to...

No, because look at what was written. The other poster was referring to "the Spirit" who is the Holy Spirit. I was referring to spirit meaning the human spirit.

Strewth. Get off your high horse. You don't even look at the proper usage of the Greek and Hebrew or the context in which they are used. Your "study" is rife with errors and contradictions and is downright sloppy. You substitute words you don't like, ignore how they are used in other places and...

I never did say that. You should read my other posts. Below is from post #2,224 God is also Spirit, Soul and Body. Why can't you understand that? Just show me once where we are called spirits, not that we have a spirit, but that we are spirit beings as you claim. You will not find it. Our very...

I never said it did. I said being spiritually dead means having no spirit, not "devoid of Spirit".
