Hi Radioman2, Thess.5:23-"May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ" In your reply you said the above spirit is a man's spirit which is different from the Holy Spirit. So, can I conclude that a Believer has two spirits ,namely, a man's spirit and a Holy Spirit, whilst a non-believer has only one spirit, man's spirit? Your further comments, please. FytRobert |

Every man has the spirit of man in him. Only believers in Christ have the Holy Spirit. NASB 1 Corinthians 2:11 For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so the thoughts of God no one knows except the Spirit of God. NASB Romans 8:9b But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him. From the two verses above, it is clear that: There is the spirit of man. There is also the Spirit of God. These are two separate and distinct spirits. Those who do not belong to Christ (are not believers) do not have the Spirit of Christ (the Spirit of God, the Holy Spirit). |

Hi Radioman 2, Your statements which show the greatness of God in comparison to man get my "Amen". There is the spirit of man and the Spirit of God and our thoughts are not His thoughts. But I am thinking that just as we are to set our minds on the things of the Spirit, especially as believers who have His Spirit indwelling us, and who look to the law of the Spirit; have we not also received a spirit [sic] of adoption as sons? Romans 8:15. In other words, I differentiate between the Spirit who indwells and the spirit that is given to us without measure and which we should not quench. What are your thoughts on that? John 3:34 and 1 Thess 5:19. From the heart, Ray |
