The same verse is a reference to animals, Genesis 7:22 - the question remain, Does it mean animals possess a being that goes to heaven in their nostrils since spirit and breath were used together for them ?
Olodo....

But other verses distinguished spirit from breath of life.

Your answer is in eccl 3:21 grin cheesy grin cheesy cheesy cheesy grin

Eccl 3:21
Who knows if the human spirit rises upwards and if the spirit of the animal goes down into the earth?”

The writer asked a question, how does this change the Fact that animals possess The same spirit like man. The same Hebrew word Ruach, no distinction.

Verse 19

Surely the fate of human beings(A) is like that of the animals; the same fate awaits them both: As one dies, so dies the other. All have the same breath ; humans have no advantage over animals. Everything is meaningless.

Exactly the same. To claim man's own is a being , is to claim animals own is also a being

Says the dumb one!

It's evident that breath is different from spirit

“If He should determine to do so,
If He should gather to Himself His spirit and His breath,
All flesh would perish together,
And man would return to dust."


Definitely, both the Spirit of God and breath are in human.
Spirit of God is in animals too Genesis 7:22
And they have breath.

Does it mean a being is inside of them?

In the psalms:

All creatures look to you
to give them their food at the proper time.
28 When you give it to them,
they gather it up;
when you open your hand,
they are satisfied with good things.
29 When you hide your face,(C)
they are terrified;
when you take away their breath, [ Ruach ]
they die and return to the dust


If ruach is a being, animals possess it too.

To even say when Ruach translated to English means breath shows the dishonesty in you.

What returned to GOD is Spirit

Delusion is when you substitute it for breath when in true meaning it's spirit.
Psalm 104:29 is in your Bible, Ruach was translated breath. Deal with it.


The being also went to heaven grin cheesy cheesy cheesy grin cheesy
' His spirit goes out, that day his thoughts perish '

If his spirit continues to think , and is a person going to heaven, the thought won't have perish.

1Pet 3:19 did not ever say Spirit went to hell. Nowhere in the Bible is spirit of man said to be a being that goes anywhere. That day his thoughts perish.

Not according to the Bible buddy.

No one knows the Father except the son.

Do you agree the son knows the Father than The spirit. ?

I know you'll never address my point.

No wonder you keep jumping from different verse to another.

The early verse you quoted proved that spirit and breath of life are used in the same verse which means they are different. grin cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy

Unless if you classify yourself as animal cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy grin

The last part shows that you know spirit and breath are of two different things.

You still haven't given us the full meaning of Rauch. cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy grin



Psalm 104:29 is in your Bible, Ruach was translated breath. Deal with it.
Does it mean Ruach always MEANS BREATH?

Until you deal with that dishonesty in you, you can't get it

'His spirit goes out, that day his thoughts perish '

If his spirit continues to think , and is a person going to heaven, the thought won't have perish.
I know you lack simple comprehension but I'll help you. His thought perish mean the person doesn't have power over his thought as the only thing left is judgement.

1Pet 3:19 did not ever say Spirit went to hell. Nowhere in the Bible is spirit of man said to be a being that goes anywhere. That day his thoughts perish.
So who are the one in prison in that verse?

His thought perish because nothing done after that counts only judgment next.

Get that into your empty skull

Nice word play, it has become " always means " .

You finally agree Ruach means breath. This is the same word translated spirit. Something your gullible sef have been denying since.

What else does Ruach meant as applicable to man and animals ?

I know you lack simple comprehension but I'll help you. His thought perish mean the person doesn't have power over his thought as the only thing left is judgement.
This is a foolish argument. To get Judgement requires your thoughts. No thought, means no life. This means what goes out is breath, it carries no idea of a thinking living person.

Your next statement proves it right .

So who are the one in prison in that verse?

His thought perish because nothing done after that counts only judgment next.

Get that into your empty skull
The text said Jesus preach to spirits in prison . This means this are people capable of thoughts. Not humans whose thought perish at death, preaching requires your mind.

This are clearly not ghosts, but angels.

The ridiculous thing about this text is you interpret the prison here to mean hell. Contradicting what Jesus said about hell

' Fear who can destroy body and soul in hell ' . To be in hell requires an human body.

Your idea has been spirit in hell, which doesn't rhyme with the requirement here, those in prison are angels, any reference to man in hell must be with their body.

If nobody in heaven or Earth knows the Father except the Son , Do you admit the person of the son is closer to the Father than holy spirit ?

Are you afraid, ?

If truly We have three persons here

Person of the Father

Person of the Son
And person of the spirit.

Between the Son and holy spirit, do you agree the son is closest to the Father going by the text that said nobody knows the Father except the Son ?

Rather you're the dishonest person playing with word.

You make it seems it's ALWAYS MEAN BREATH

You finally agree Ruach means breath.
I never deny it, do I?

But do you agree that Ruach also mean SPIRIT?

This is the same word translated spirit.
Now you're talking. So which means it not ALWAYS MEAN breath as you're crying over since.

Something your gullible sef have been denying since.
Where did I deny it?

Are you not the dumb mind trying to make it look like it Always MEANS BREATH?

What else does Ruach meant as applicable to man and animals?
It means in man it means more than animal reason majority of scholars agreed to it as being for man and reason the Bible says It'll go back to God while that animal will have no reason to go to back to heaven.

This is a foolish argument.
Your is more dumbest.

To get Judgement requires your thoughts. No thought, means no life. This means what goes out is breath, it carries no idea of a thinking living person.

You don't need thought on judgment day.

You can't prove it further.

Not humans whose thought perish at death, preaching requires your mind.
It's evident you don't understand those verses

This are clearly not ghosts, but angels.
Liar, Jesus didn't come to help Angels but human.

How long will you continue to defend your dumb doctrine?

Lol...... definitely you don't understand Jesus there.

Your idea has been spirit in hell, which doesn't rhyme with the requirement here, those in prison are angels, any reference to man in hell must be with their body.
Jesus never come to help Angels, saying that alone shows you lack scriptural knowledge.

Ruach as spirit , is the same as Ruach as breath. No difference.

This is why your ignorance won't allow you answer what is a soul, if spirit is a being .

It means in man it means more than animal reason majority of scholars agreed to it as being for man and reason the Bible says It'll go back to God while that animal will have no reason to go to back to heaven.

Psalm 104:29 describe Ruach for ALL CREATURES as their breath !

A text about preaching proves this is for people with a mind. To preach is to send a message. This totally rule out the idea of human spirit as a being, their thoughts has perish. They can't be preached to !!

It even said " prison" not hell, to claim some people go to prison and some other to hell proved God is partial. You are forced to read prison as hell. Which is not there because of your ignorance

-

If the text refer to human, I ask how come their human body is not there ? Is Jesus lying now that body and soul MUST be together in hell ?

I only test a theology. Spirit of God is a person

According to the Bible , no one knows the things of God except the spirit of God. Which means spirit of God if it's a person is far closer to the Father than Jesus .

Whereas Jesus said this is impossible, no one knows the Father except the Son.

This is a blatant contradiction here, Either Jesus lied or Paul lied. grin

Idiots who held to Trinity can't even solve this dillema, two persons claiming to be the closest, one must be true and the other either a liar or not a person to begin with.

No one knows the Father except the Son means nobody else comes close to the person of the son, no other person! I understand you are going through cognitive dissonance.
