You just said it in the above post. You really don't seem to understand the implications of your words. Adam was created (bara) by God in Gen.1:27 , his body and only his body was formed (yatsar) from the dust. God breathed into that body human life (the soul He created Gen1:27 ) and spiritual...

That's your thinking, not mine. Why can't you acknowledge that the breath in Adam was not made from the earth? You made a claim he was made from the earth, I showed you only his body was but you would rather criticize me in defense of yourself than correct your thinking. So be it.

Again, the Bible says both men and beasts have breath. You are free to disregard context and meaning if you wish but you do so at your peril.

The breath of life came into Adam AFTER his body was formed directly from God. Only his body was created from the earth. It is one thing to overthink, it is quite another to not think at all. :rolleyes:

It says they have breath, just like men. It says they are made from the earth and it says spirit is born of Spirit. But please feel free to refuse to believe any of that.

True. One needs to open their eyes, the other needs to open their ears. Some keep both shut are and doubly doomed.

I never claimed you did but spirit is born of God and I showed you what animals are made of which, once again, you simply ignored.

Your welcome

More like you dropped the ball.

Pft. You never did bother showing us where animals are born of God. John 3:6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

This is not rocket science. If they didn't do greater works than Jesus told a pork pie, ergo they must have done greater works. Just because you were not there to witness it and give it your seal of approval means diddly squat.

That's your opinion. If they weren't greater, then Jesus lied.

And I've shown you animals do not have spirits. Yours is more the tradition. Most people I know think man is born with a defunct spirit and that animals have spirits.

No you haven't. To do what you want in the Ecc.3:21 verse you have to have the word that is translated as spirit to be two different things. That is not how things work. You can't have one meaning the human spirit then the next meaning breath/life, it lacks consistency. You have been shown...

Because you don't learn from mistakes by pretending it never happened. And I am not insinuating God made mistakes. He gave us the capacity for independent thought and a will to choose what's right which, inevitably gives us the freedom to choose the wrong.

Oh please. One post and you think you know the degree of my faith? Strewth, give us a break. :rolleyes:

Except scripture says we are dead in our sin. It's not our soul that's dead and it's not our body that's dead so that can only leave our spirit (that you think we have). We are not comatose in our sin, we are dead, dead, dead. Just because you don't say our spirit (that you think we have) is...

There is a 3 fold salvation but I do not believe as you put it. Our spirits are born of God and are incorruptible and immortal, they do not need saving. We are saved instantly from the penalty of sin, death. This salvation occurs when we are born from above and made spiritually alive never to...

You are the one who says they are dead and not working properly, I say they are non-existent until one is born. So the dead spirits return to God. I'm sure he will be pleased to receive them. And I see you still can't understand the usage of spirit within context. Maybe you have a dull spirit...

And their dead spirits will go where?
