Do People Really Give Up The Ghost? by Sixfiguresmart(op): 10:16am On Jun 23, 2022
Knowing that Ghost is a false teaching that originated from pagans. Do you continue to utter such expression?
If Ghost is claimed by pagans to be the spirit of a dead person, why does a living person have to give it up before he expires?

Ever heard of figures of speech? To give up the Ghost implies to take one's last breath. undecided

First It is not a false teaching and you know that. Pagans were naturalist and it is because of the deceit of "enlightenment" (education) that you think you are better off.

Secondly, "give it up" is proof that all men would have loved to keep, keeping the spirit but they can not. Ecclesiastes 8;8

But because we see they can not do so, therefore we see them unwillingly "giving it up." Hence, the "give up"

Which means, we recognise it is not our own and that we are forced to return it to its Owner!

I doubt if you read to understand what I wrote. I guess that you have a passion for antagonism.
There is no ignorant man in this world. Each onr acts according to his level of KNOWLEDGE. That knowledge us either good or bad.

Reducing my thought to deceit of enlightenment is an unprovoked jab to silence my voice. What do you know about pagans? What is naturalist about pagans? Pagans are philosophers, men of knowledge not naturalists. They are elites and glitteratis in logic and reasoning.

I am not a dumbo, Sir.
In your defense of pagans, you might be stabbing them.

What is the meaning of ghost? The meaning decides the implications. Devil is diabolo meaning slanderer. Would a slanderer accept to be called devil today? Unlikely. He might stick to slanderer because of the implication of that word.

Puerile telling me that someone would love to keep shiit and for that reason he gives us what he is not or doesn't have as yet.

I get the point, but my ish is the cultural acceptance and moreso by people who do lack access to research.

Natural living shows that there are many things we can do without one of which is endless enquiry.
