It works both ways bro. No man has gone there and come to tell us tales, everything we know about there is what we have been told by those we met here who are also ignorant of that place.

Hope you understand this
search NDE on google... I have seen entities that fear the name of Christ...so definitely Christ words are true... You should see a prophet... Then you will know that invincible forces are watching you... Be it God or devil.

i already have go back to my post again.

Yes the thing that made a man man is the soul but is a man complete without his body on physical realm?

The same reason a man is not complete without his body on physical realm, that's the same reason a man is not complete in the spiritual realm without his spirit.

The spirit serve as a vessel for man(soul) in the spiritual realm

Op sir, all Good works Without Accepting JESUS CHRIST is An Act of philanthropy..

Good works are good but they don't take to Heaven.. let's not Deceive Ourselves..

Accepting and Believing in JESUS CHRIST is the Only way to Salvation ....

Except A Man be Born Again , He cannot see the Kingdom of GOD..

Read Acts 10 .you see the Example of the Centurion..

GOOD Works Without Accepting JESUS CHRIST is An Act of Philanthropy...

Just like Prophecy without Salvation is Gymnastics

God is a christian right? Heaven will only house Christians there while hell belongs to others. Wow, this is splendid!

so what the difference between soul and spirit?

The different is that

the spirit is the vessel your soul operate with in the spiritual realm

while the soul is the real you.

Please kindly do! Give us a clearer view on some allegedly perceived misconceptions.Thank you.
Humans again and our endless struggle to give meaning to our meaningless life.

Man is an animal. We have no spirit, we have no soul.

When we die, we decay like every other animal out there.

"there's no knowledge in the grave where thou goest"

The spirit of God is the breathe in our nostrils and when he takes it, we cease to live.

That's if you believe in religion. Remember the story of the valley of dry bones?

When the bones where resurrected, God did not ask Jeremiah to put his spirit within them to make them alive, rather he asked him to call to the four winds of the earth. When the wind gets into them, they were all made alive.

Also, why is there no record of Lazarus experiences of the afterlife in the Bible, I mean he was dead for four days before Jesus resurrected him, if truly we go to heaven or hell after we die, Lazarus must have gone somewhere, and should have recounted his experience.

Or how about the man that died and Elisha bones brought to life or the boy and girl Jesus brought to life or the the widow Peter brought to life, why is it that none have any knowledge of their experience in heaven or hell?

Because there's no knowledge in the grave. When we die, we perish.

If you believe in the Bible, then according to it, you will be resurrected on the last day to face heaven or hell, not a day after.

Mary said to Jesus, "I know my brother will be resurrected again on the day of judgment" (paraphrased)

Please let's be guided and through search the scriptures.

And secondly, hell is not forever. Search the Bible for yourself and see.

I think I'll need to create a thread on this.

Absolutely. So, from God's prism, it is Spirit, Soul and Body. The body on the last wrung of the ladder. However, for people who have gone their own way, who have led their life apart from God,who are thus, spiritually dead, it is, body, soul and spirit. The spirit occupying the least place.
But from the moment of spiritual regeneration - being born again - it shifts to Spirit, Soul and Body. That being is required to start living by the spirit.

Dude, when you read my comment. Use your head to decipher it, I don't care what God you serve and how your serve it. What I hate is bigotry, tribalism and hypocrisy.

Man is essentially a tripartite being. He is a Spirit, that lives in a physical body, and he has a soul. The real you is your spirit, and not your mortal frame. Unfortunately, many of us are awfully ignorant of this fundamental truth about our real human nature

The Bible reveals that man was made in the image and likeness of God. The term “man” is a generic term for humanity. It means man and womb-man (woman), as well.

“And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.” (Genesis 1:26).

“God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.” (John 4:24).

God is a Spirit. Grab hold of that. This means all human beings are first and foremost spirits, not bodies. On the inside of every living human body there is a human spirit. That is the real person, the one created in the image of God.

“But there is a spirit in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding.” (Job 32:cool.
.
It is through the spirit of man that God communicates with him or her. God does not communicate with humans through their souls because He does not live in the soulical realm. God does not communicate with humans through their bodies because He does not live in the physical realm. God is a Spirit and He lives in the spirit realm. This is why He communicates with humans through their human spirits.

The soul of man is actually the mind of man. The soul is comprised of the mind, the will, the intellect and the emotions. The human soul is where the human being acquires knowledge. It is a storage and operational area for information, learning, logic, and reason…It is kind of like a hard drive on a computer only it is alive.

Now we come to the body of man. The body is a dwelling place and a vehicle of expression for the human spirit. The spirit actually gives animation to the body. The body is NOT the real person. The SPIRIT is the real person. However, in order for the spirit to live in the Earth realm it must be contained within a human body. I call the human body my earth suit. You have to have an earth suit to live in the earth realm. As soon as an earth suit fails, a human spirit immediately departs for one of two places that does not require one – Heaven or Hell.

Now, beyond the above elucidation on the triune nature of man, it is imperative to state here, that your life is driven by two contending dynamics: the gratification of the desires of your ‘spirit’ or the appeasement of the cravings of your ‘ body’. Fulfillment or a purposeful life, therefore, is only attained when your life aligns with the yearnings of the spirits in the inside of you. Hence, a person is said to be ‘spiritual’ when he totally submits to the control of his spirit being, and he is ‘carnal’ when the lust of the flesh dominates his existence.

Let me quickly add here, that being ‘spiritual’ has nothing to do with the religion you profess. Spirituality is not also a ‘mystical practice’ as portrayed by some religion.it is simply an act of obedience to the ‘voice of good’ in the inside of you. This ‘voice of good’ is popularly called your ‘conscience’, ‘your moral compass’, that nudges you to good deeds. It pricks you each time you deviate from the path of morality. Your conscience judges every of your action, and constantly guides you toward godliness.

Spirituality, therefore, is the gateway to godliness, not religiosity. When your life is totally controlled by the ‘spirit’, you express God anywhere you go and this qualifies you to become an authentic child of God. Romans 8:16 captures this truth:
“For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God”

Again, your godliness is not a function of your religious affiliation. It is simply an expression of the ‘God’ in you, in your daily relationship with others. The good you do to others, is the only definition of godliness that I know!
Please, do not be deceived by any religion and their complicated vain doctrines. You do not need religion to access God, or to live a godly life. Listen to the ‘voice of good’ in the inside of you- that is God guiding you along the path of rectitude. The more you acquiesce to the leading of your spirit the more godly or fulfilled your life becomes.

Have you ever wondered why Africa is backward and under developed, in spite of our pervasive religiosity, and the developed countries that are not religious, are building better societies? The answer is simple: those developed countries have strong moral value system that engenders a ‘godly society’ where the government is compassionate to the needs of every of her citizens, especially the weak, the poor and the vulnerable. And their godly leaders constantly strive to provide for the common good,

I have had cause to challenge many of my Christian folks, who are ‘tongue speaking, holy ghost filled and bible quoting’, that an average white man, who does not even go to church like them, are godlier. While the white man is looking for an opportunity to help someone in need, my Christian brother would rather carry a big bible to meet a man who is hungry, in name of ‘evangeism’, copiously quote the scriptures, and tell him to ‘give his life to Christ’. And when he is done with his ‘ministration’ he goes his way, with the pious feeling that he has done the ‘work of God’ Rubbish! Arrant nonsense.This is the wickedness towards humanity that has created an ungodly religious society that we find ourselves today. Help me tell my evangelist brother that: “Even the Christ you preach about, remember, he fed five thousand people during His earthly ministry”. Why not do the same, if you are truly his disciple?

Bill Gate is not a christian ( he is even an atheist), but he has spent over $28 billion of his net worth on charity, to support the cause of humanity. He has invested millions of dollars alone in Nigeria to support the fight against polio. His philanthropy is impacting the world. This act of nobility is godliness at its peak. Let me even shock you, God is more glorified by the life of Bill Gate, than the miserable life of your religious leaders, who collect money from the poor to build schools, and the children of the same poor people cannot attend thse schools. Many of you religious folks will be shocked to see ‘sinners’ in heaven on that day.

The reality of the life that we live today, especially most of us in Africa, is that, we are not conscious of the essential ‘spirit nature’ of our being. This is attributed largely to the negative influence of religious falsehood that has over the years, configured our lives and society. This is really tragic! Many of us are so consumed by the vain pursuit of carnality, at the expense of spiritual actualization, so much so, that the only thing that matters in our lives is the ‘god’ called ‘money’.

Apostle Paul warns in Romans 8:6-10:
“For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.
But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness”

Finally, my beloved, Let me leave you with this piece of advice: be careful about your desperate quest to satiate the cravings of your flesh. The lust of the flesh is unappeasable! You know exactly what I am talking about. The more you have, the more you want to acquire. Tame your flesh or else, it will destroy you.
“There is a way that appears to be right, but in the end it leads to death”- Proverb 14:12
Albert Schweitzer, once said, “The purpose of life is to serve, to show compassion, and the will to help other”

I rest my case!

@OP, a person might be very generous, donating to charity, helping the needy, looks godly but his secret ways of making money is evil. So in the eyes of men he or she is a good and god fearing person.

Similarly, in this physical world the good, the bad and everybody dies, does not matter by which means the person dies but the manner of death is not peculiar to anyone. We have seen priest been killed in cold blood, we have seen well known celebrities who lived a worldly life die and were celebrated.

To me this world is too complex for human comprehension. I dont want to believe we are just here to live and die, I believe like the OP mentioned this place is home only for the physical body, the spirit only habitates inside. The soul is the contending factor that needs to be replayed again to see how that spirit faired while here on earth. Maybe to reward it or to destroy it. I dont know

Your brian determine who you are ...it is your mind
Computers were made from studies of human. brain
Does a computer have a spirit
Soul is the entirety of man himself....
God can communicate with human both in your physical and when asleep because man is essentially a program. If you understand how the computer works then you understand human .Just as you can send message to a computer so God the creator also can
Animals are msux like humans except for one difference..the brain
Animal brain has much less developed higher centres
While that of man has a well developed higher centres. Amy man not using his higher Brian centre would also behave like an animal simple
When a man dies his brain seize to function and he can't communicate with others anymore
In some partial death , some part of the brain is still alive and at such the dead man may notice his body floating . Kind of a split ..but sometimes you dream and that happens too.
The soul is the man it is not a different thing inside man . The spirit is the mind ......the thought generating capacity and ability of your brains ....
Does a computer too have a spirit but they can talk and and think in what is called AI.

Man is a three- natured being; the body, the soul(spirit man) and the spirit. The body is the flesh, the soul is a man's own spirit, the one that will face judgement after death. The spirit is the force that is controlling a a man either the spirit of darkness or the spirit of light.

I would say, man is like a computer, the body is the pc, the soul is the hard drive and the spirit is the OS. The hard drive is always running even when the PC is asleep. However, as soon as the PC dies, all the info and files will still be in the drive for extraction (judgment) while the OS still remains with the owner Billgates or Apple.

There is nothing like sure 100% football winning... Don't come here and complain of scam. Study football yourself and gamble responsibly. It is pure gambling but make sure you win at least 60% of your bookies and you will never be poor again. In life. Example, play 2 odd everyday for 7 days and make sure you win 5 out of 7. Continue doing it for one month and if you have perfected on it, you can then start staking higher amount.

Celestine, try and do things with your body you haven't been able to do in a while. Use Psalm 23. God is your shepherd, so you shall not want. Your healing and finances are all connected to God who is abundantly able to provide all your needs according to his riches in glory, so look unto God. Trust him. Thank him for healing you and your dad, thank him for providing for your family. Do that and your faith will activate Gods actions in your life as fast as possible. Learn to depend on God and not man, God will use Everyman that comes your way to support you. Try it. Works for me all the time.

Op sir, all Good works Without Accepting JESUS CHRIST is An Act of philanthropy..

Good works are good but they don't take to Heaven.. let's not Deceive Ourselves..

Accepting and Believing in JESUS CHRIST is the Only way to Salvation ....

Except A Man be Born Again , He cannot see the Kingdom of GOD..

Read Acts 10 .you see the Example of the Centurion..

GOOD Works Without Accepting JESUS CHRIST is An Act of Philanthropy...

Just like Prophecy without Salvation is Gymnastics
Chairman... It is easier for Bill Gates with his philanthropy to Make heaven than for you who only believe in Jesus to make it.
The Bible says that faith without 'work' is dead. Whether you agree or not, philanthropy is the most acceptable form of this 'work'.
The same Jesus said that "whatsoever you do to the least of your brethren, that, you do unto me". This shows that you can do other kinds of good works without doing it for God, but once your good works involves helping the least(poorest) among your people, you are doing it directly to God, and because of this, Jesus will tell you on that day "Come and inherit the kingdom prepared for you... For I was hungry you give me to eat, I was thirsty you give me to drink..."(Matthew 25:34-35).

Now if you still think that believing in God and accepting Jesus is the only way to heaven, then be informed that you are not the only one that believe in God, even the demons believe also in God(James 2:19). So if believing in God is all it takes to get salvation, then even the devil himself will be saved.
Also, your religion is not the only religion that believes in God... Many other religions do too. So stop believing that heaven will be filled with people from only your religion.

There is nothing like sure 100% football winning... Don't come here and complain of scam. Study football yourself and gamble responsibly. It is pure gambling but make sure you win at least 60% of your bookies and you will never be poor again. In life. Example, play 2 odd everyday for 7 days and make sure you win 5 out of 7. Continue doing it for one month and if you have perfected on it, you can then start staking higher amount.

I have a method that gives me a 66% chance of winning.
In the long run I make only profits.
I was hoping their were better approaches.

Humans are not spirit ....spirits have different bodies
Your brian determine who you are ...it is your mind
Computers were made from studies of human. brain
Does a computer have a spirit
Soul is the entirety of man himself....
God can communicate with human both in your physical and when asleep because man is essentially a program. If you understand how the computer works then you understand human .Just as you can send message to a computer so God the creator also can
Animals are msux like humans except for one difference..the brain
Animal brain has much less developed higher centres
While that of man has a well developed higher centres. Amy man not using his higher Brian centre would also behave like an animal simple
When a man dies his brain seize to function and he can't communicate with others anymore
In some partial death , some part of the brain is still alive and at such the dead man may notice his body floating . Kind of a split ..but sometimes you dream and that happens too.
The soul is the man it is not a different thing inside man . The spirit is the mind ......the thought generating capacity and ability of your brains ....
Does a computer too have a spirit but they can talk and and think in what is called AI.
Kudos to you for writing this.
You are very close to the truth... Man is a Soul that has a Spirit and lives in a body.
I will not blame the OP, Vocnewsblog for turning this truth upside down because I know he is not the one who wrote that sermon. But in the same sermon, the truth was told: “But there is A SPIRIT IN MAN: and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding.”(Job 32:8 ). This shows that man is not a spirit, but the spirit is in man.
But what actually is man?
The answer is found in the account of the creation of man... "And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life(spirit); AND MAN BECAME A LIVING SOUL"(Genesis 2:7).

If humans was spirit leaving inside a body, what about animals, what makes animals alive since they don't have spirit. And what's the point of having a brain heart kidney and other tissues, like animals, since we don't need them as it is the spirit that's making us survive and not those tissues.

Can an animal talk, reason. Man can talk, reason. Man can build things. Today men go to the moon and other planetary bodies.
Man is a great being. Man can never be the same thing as animal. The only similarity is that both the human body and animals were formed from the ground.

Mans body was also formed from the dust.
