[quote="Lewis W":da6d7]Yes God breathed in to man's nostrils and he became a (nephesh) = a living soul

Thankyou Lewis. And is this same word used to describe animals?

NO[/quote:da6d7]

Thankyou again Lewis. Can you tell me what the word is that is used to describe the creatures in Genesis 1:21, 24 for example?

Scripture sets man apart in that he is made in God's image, and likeness, and has been given dominion over animals (Genesis 1:26-27). Man is over the animals. (Psalm 8:6-8) Man was made wiser than the animals. (Job 35:10-11) Man's purpose is to glorify God in his position to care for creation (Genesis 2:5-7) He is made of one blood (Acts 17:26) His made of his own created kind of flesh (1 Corinthians 15:39) Man is more important to God than animals. (Matthew 6:26) (Matthew 10:31) (Matthew 12:12) Man was made a little lower than the angels. (Hebrews 2:7)

The Lord bless you all.

Are they what! Like ravenous wolves.

...Guess I typed that in wrong; I meant it to mean all forums in general...

But the Christian forums aren't like ravenous wolves, just llamas that get slightly agitated when you misquote the bible

What misquotes are you referring to?

 

[Dalen Naskiel]

By misquotes I mean something like...


And so God said to Abraham, "this is my kingdom and to get in, you must present unto me the Silver Donkey you promised" (Naskiel 34:12)

I see what you mean. It is certainly not the God that I know, nor the Abraham whose faith that was counted as righteousness. So it is obviously a misquote.

Exactly
