Subject: Did Jesus die spiritually? |
Bible Note: Greetings Emmaus! I suspect that we all struggle with the word death - because it is a word that is connected with terminus or ending, yet in God's vocabulary, death is a transitional word - as you have pointed out, the soul that has been credited grace will live in eternal UNION with the Lord and the soul upon which the wrath of God has been poured out will live in eternal separation or "excommunication"(?) with God. Your wrote: "The only spiritual sense in which He dies was the separation of His human soul (human spirit) from his human body. Even the human soul can not die except to loose grace. The integrated human being dies when the body is separated from the soul and the body decays because it has lost its connection to the sould which is its animating life force. This is the inevitable result of sin." I'm not quite in agreement with this, see my other posts on this thread. mommapbs |
