[size=18pt]2(#e)[/size] benalvino: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spirit Spirit From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The English word spirit (from Latin spiritus "breath" has many differing meanings and connotations, most of them relating to a non-corporeal substance contrasted with the material body. The word spirit is often used metaphysically to refer to the consciousness or personality. Etymology The English word spirit comes from the Latin spiritus, meaning "breath", but also "spirit, soul, courage, vigor", ultimately from a Proto-Indo-European *(s)peis. It is distinguished from Latin anima, "soul" (which nonetheless also derives from an Indo-European root meaning "to breathe", earliest form *h2enh1- [2]). In Greek, this distinction exists between pneuma (πνευμα), "breath, motile air, spirit," and psykhē (ψυχη), "soul"[3] (even though the latter term, ψῡχή = psykhē/psūkhē, is also from an Indo-European root meaning "to breathe": *bhes-, zero grade *bhs- devoicing in proto-Greek to *phs-, resulting in historical-period Greek ps- in psūkhein, "to breathe", whence psūkhē, "spirit", "soul"[4]). The word "spirit" came into Middle English via Old French. The distinction between soul and spirit also developed in the Abrahamic religions: Arabic nafs (نفس) opposite rúħ (روح); Hebrew neshama (נְשָׁמָה nəšâmâh) or nephesh (in Hebrew neshama comes from the root NŠM or "breath"[size=18pt] opposite ruach (רוּחַ rûaħ).[/size] (Note, however, that in Semitic just as in Indo-European, this dichotomy has not always been as neat historically as it has come to be taken over a long period of development: Both נֶ֫פֶשׁ (root נפשׁ) and רוּחַ (root רוח), as well as cognate words in various Semitic languages, including Arabic, also preserve meanings involving misc. air phenomena: "breath", "wind", and even "odour".[5][6][7]) |

As you can see,[size=18pt] spirit was derived from spiritus (latin) meaning breath[/size] a direct root in greek is G4154 πνέω pneō pneh'-o A primary word; to breathe {hard} that {is} breeze corresponding with rûach H7306 H7306 רוּח rûach roo'-akh A primitive root; properly to {blow} that {is} breathe ; only (literally) to smell or (by implication perceive Hebrew neshama comes from the root NŠM or "breath"wink opposite ruach (רוּחַ rûaħ).

Could you go on... and forget this spirit thing? you dont have a case |
Re: Why Jesus, The Son Of God, Is NOT An Angel by BERNIMOORE: 8:54am On Aug 30, 2013 |
[size=18pt]2(#G)[/size] since the english word spirit was originally derived from latin word 'spiritus'=breath equivalent with the greek word pneo,which is the root to pne.uma which also corresponds with hebrew ruach,while neshama(inspiration) was opposite of ruach see 2(#f) then we can establish two distinct categories of forms which falls under the (later usage) blanket name of spirit,note that spirit is used by the english translators later to be a blanket accomodating all various kinds of persons(supernatural/phisical human/animal) just the way the word 'Lord' could accomodate different things;God,jesus,court judges,husbands etc. however it is very easy for TRINITARIANS TO TURN YOU AROUND HIDDING UNDER THE BLANKET NAME 'LORD' but by sticking to the root derivative will keep argument in focus. because they are confused people on their own, so they want people to be like them, hence they attack anyone who has the got to explain into details by mischieviously forcing the argument back to the same point 'lord' so that anything can be lord even a he goat will be 'lord' to a she goat, thats trinitarians for you! nevertheless we should not forget the root of english 'spirit' derived from latin which means 'breath' the blanket word 'spirit' could also by analogy accomodates humans,angels,God,satan/demons etc, ..but in what respect? The two distinct categories of forms which falls under the (later usage) blanket name of 'spirit' 1, phisical beign/form/nature;human/animals= they breath air, and so the air/wind/breeze they breath sustains their body,keep it alive. 2, supernatural beigns/form/nature; God,angels,word,satan/demons= who are resides in air,breeze/wind and invisible the difference in 1, and 2, above is that a, (one) relied on a portion of (two) to sustain its phisical body, b, (two) does not need any portion of (one) to sustains his supernatural form so, 2 is independent on 1, but 1 is dependent on 2. therefore Angels BY DEFAULT belong to 2 above, jesus(word)by default also belong to 2 above before he came to the earth. he was 'messenger' to God in heaven chech old testament record where God was refering to jesus there in heaven as 'messenger of covenant' malachi 3:1, 'angel of covenant' (dual rheims 1899,derby bible,Amp. bible,wcl bible) rightly put it. note, to trinitarians this will offend them, expect them to say trash , but that is their opinion. they should come up with a counter explanation rather than beign emotional thanks |

BERNIMOORE: since the english word spirit was originally derived from latin word 'spiritus'=breath equivalent with the greek word pneo,which is the root to pne.uma which also corresponds with ruach,while neshama(inspiration) was opposite of ruach lol. breath, breeze, wind etc... all are not greek or hebrew... I think you are doing all this latin thing out of shame... because now the post you are making are not making sense anymore... we have covered it... everything you see from one language to another is translation.... I have should you the words in hebrew that translate breath and the one that translate spirit. Yet you decide to swim in your confusion... after making embarrassing statements earlier... it was because of this spirit and breath stuff you said animals are sons of men... Lmao and you are still sinking with your confusion... am not ready to stay here for ever... if you are not ready to move on lets give it a rest. |

2(#g)contd. from 2(#f); The two distinct categories of forms which falls under the (later usage) blanket name of 'spirit' 1, phisical beign/form/nature;human/animals= they breath air, and so the air/wind/breeze they breath sustains their body,keep it alive. 2, supernatural beigns/form/nature; God,angels,word,satan/demons= who are resides in air,breeze/wind and invisible if Angels BY DEFAULT belong to 2 above,that is (2),supernatural beigns/form/nature; God,angels,word,satan/demons= who are resides in air,breeze/wind and invisible what further need is there for Another so-called 'angels form/nature'? it is superflous rather since the word angel root originally means 'messenger' REMEMBER THE ENGLISH WORD, HOW WAS IT DERIVED;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angel The word angel in English is a fusion of the Old English/Germanic word engel (with a hard g) and the Old French angele. Both derive from the Latin angelus which in turn is the romanization of the ancient Greek ἄγγελος (ángelos[5]), "messenger", "envoy",[6] which is related to the Greek verb ἀγγέλλω (angéllō), meaning "bear a message, announce, bring news of" etc IF Greek verb ἀγγέλλω [b](angéllō), meaning "bear a message, announce, bring news of" [/b]etc then the 'word' angel is merely 'a task' apportioned to some of those in the class of (2)above as well as some of the (1) above 'humans' WHO ARE PROPHETS LEADERS OF GODS PEOPLE etc. this can be seen in the uterance of 'a spirit son of God;an angel below here task with a message to john; see what he said about himself paralleled with john, when john wanted to bow for him as a sign of respect; revelation 22:9; And he saith unto me, See thou do it not: I am a fellow-servant with thee and with thy brethren the prophets, and with them that keep the words of this book: worship God. 1 Like |

BERNIMORE: ^^^ all this part is BS... I have discuss them. you know how it is used. you are never wrong so you can keep on reading your Wikipedia about that http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spirit BERNIMORE: jesus(word)by default also belong to 2 above before he came to the earth. he was 'messenger' to God in heaven chech old testament record where God was refering to jesus there in heaven as 'messenger of covenant' malachi 3:1, 'angel of covenant' (dual rheims 1899,derby bible,Amp. bible,wcl bible) rightly put it.^^ "I will send my messenger, who will prepare the way before me. Then suddenly the Lord you are seeking will come to his temple; the messenger of the covenant, whom you desire, will come," says the LORD Almighty BERNIMOORE: (dual rheims 1899,derby bible,Amp. bible,wcl bible) rightly put it.^^^^ it is correct because you feel it is the oldest... lol how ignorant... see below the large font The King James Version is a translation named after King James I of England, who first commissioned the new English Bible translation in 1604 A.D. and later completed in [size=28pt]1611 A.D[/size]. King James 'authorized' the new translation to be read in churches in England and beyond. Later known as the 'Authorized Version' [size=28pt]in 1814[/size], the King James Version became a standard among English-speaking Christians. the time it was completed and authorize still date the 1899 bible you are bragging about. First i wan to ask you if people are borne angels... secondly how do we know if the messenger is a spirit or human? because you made a statement which you abandon the use of angel... now i can see that you have taken it again... Ok John the baptist is also a messenger like Jesus... Guess what he has heavenly father and mother... therefore he cannot be from an angel because he is not even from heaven... Jesus on the other hand is a messenger like John the baptist... he wasn't a spirit like Gabriel on earth... so it is up to you to tell me if Jesus was like Gabriel or not... therefore Malachi 3:1 doesn't prove Jesus was in the Michael the arch angel BERNIMORE: note, to trinitarians this will offend them, expect them to say trash grin grin grin grin, but that is their opinion. they should come up with a counter explanation rather than beign emotional^^^No one have your time... try to remove your mind from pride and showoff |

BERNIMOORE: i have seen it and you did not make sense... Malachi you quote john the baptist have earthly parents mother and father, therefore he is a messenger like elijah not like angel gabriel. Jesus is also a messenger like elijah and not like Gabriel... he wasnt a spirit when he started his ministries on earth... the messenger Yahweh says he will Send is John [size=18pt]"I will send my messenger[john the baptist], who will prepare the way before me[YHWH]. Then suddenly the Lord[jesus] you are seeking will come to his temple; the messenger[jesus] of the covenant, whom you desire, will come," says the LORD Almighty [/size] The voice of one crying in the wilderness: Prepare the way of the LORD[YHWH]; Make straight in the desert a highway for our God (Isa. 40:3). In those days John the Baptist came, preaching in the Desert of Judea and saying, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near." This is he who was spoken of through the prophet Isaiah: 'A voice of one calling in the desert, 'Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for him'" (Mt. 3:1-3). According to Matthew, the prophet Isaiah wrote about John the Baptist, who was to prepare the way for the Lord, or as Isaiah wrote the LORD (YHWH). Yet, it was John who prepared the way for Jesus: The bible says God manifest in the flesh, it says the word became flesh... I baptize you with water for repentance. But after me will come one who is more powerful than I, whose sandals I am not fit to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire (Mt. 3:11). John prepared the way for Jesus, according to Matthew, but Isaiah says John, who he called the voice, prepared the way for YHWH! let me explain again [size=14pt] “Behold, I send My messenger, and he will prepare the way before Me. And the Lord, whom you seek, will suddenly come to His temple, even the Messenger of the covenant, in whom you delight. Behold, He is coming,” says the Lord of hosts. Behold, I send My messenger: This prophesied[b] messenger[/b] is none other than John the Baptist. Matthew 11:10, Mark 1:2, and Luke 7:27 each apply this promise to John the Baptist. At the end of Malachi 2, Israel complained that God seemed to reward the wicked and did not exercise His justice in the world. God responds to their complaint by saying, “I will set things right with My Messiah, and before Him will come My messenger.” And he will prepare the way before Me: In an ancient royal procession the messenger went before the King to announce his arrival, to indicate the route, and to remove any obstacles in the road. John the Baptist fulfilled this exact ministry for Jesus. The same idea is indicated in Isaiah 40:3-5. God’s purpose for bringing this specific prophecy through Malachi in his day was probably because Israel complained that the Messianic promises of Haggai and Zechariah were not fulfilled. Here Malachi shows that the way for the Messiah must be prepared, and they aren’t ready yet. Before Me: The Lord promises that He Himself will come - not merely a new or better prophet, but the Lord Himself. Even the Messenger of the covenant: This second messenger is the Lord Himself - Jesus coming to His temple as the fulfillment of the old covenant and to institute a new covenant. [/size] |

The bible says the WORD became flesh... Did it state that Michael Became flesh? So By you logic of Become... We all should Agree that John the Baptist had a pre-human state in Heaven... So who was he? as you claim because the bible did not use become so jesus most be an angel... Guess what it did not use become For John the baptist too... BERNIMOORE: when the statement was made, was jesus not still there in heaven as a supernatural spirit form/nature? as a 'mesenger' evidently he is yet to become human When malachi said I will send my messenger... Was John the baptist in Heaven? was he on earth? lol like i said before when did it say John become a messenger? can you answer the questions? Where did it say Michael became Jesus? or flesh?
