Mar 16:19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.

[Existanz]

Strikingly I can not find any immortal human soul concept in the Bible. Except in 1 Tim 1:17 mention about immortality..

"Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen. (NIV)"

Spiritually it dwells in us.

Since God is Spirit our immaterial part which is our Spirit is the one that connects us to God.

John 4:24 God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth

Our Soul refer to the whole person it is who we are.

The Spirit and Soul are connected

have you not heard, that the Soul (anima, psyche, vita, mind, apperception) was conjured from the imaginings of jobless philosophers only to feed themselves, and now people are seriously laboring to talk about something that was conjured ex nihilo by the desperately hungry?

so i should listen to a school teacher (of course w/ salary) proclaiming that there is no soul?

should you listen and become a part of the spiral of illusion, or should you not and so bequeath everything your world.. its your choice,

i never said i did not believed in it, neither did i say that i do.

.. this is the reason to why I don't respond to your comments. Because you have no conviction whatsoever. you just post for the sake of posting and discuss for the sake of discussing. a pity really.

If man is said to have a soul, does it live in the flesh? The Bible tells us that the body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. Other associations to a soul or spirit are those that come out after the person dies. But spirits are IMMATERIAL. And how does a spirit or a soul dwell in the body of a person considering it's non material properties?

Ideas?

Can the concept of soul and flesh be explained in scientific terms as to try to keep religious bias out of the equation?

Subject Flesh: We are a large carbon based being with 60% water and a massive nerve system connect to a brain. We are in essence a Carbon battery with conductive wiring.

Purpose for the wiring: If pricked unknowingly with a pin on the heal you brain receives signal from pain receptors, processes information from these receptors and then the evaluated information is sent to various muscles telling you to jump, rub the pained area, and yell at your friend, "Why the hell did you do that!" all in a split second, How? Electric Energy which is stored and contained in the carbon based battery we call the human body.

When you die everyone loses, even if sealed in a big zip-lock baggie, several grams of unexplained weight loss. Electric Energy has mass, mass has weight.

What happens to the Electric energy upon death: It appears to exist no longer in the host body. Does it die? No
One of the basic laws of physics is the law of conservation of energy, which states that energy can not be created or destroyed, it can only be changed from one form to another.

With the advent of String Theory we can now conceive of infinite dimensions or realities sharing the same space. It would help explain what happens to our Electric Energy upon our death. The energy does not die yet the lose of the weight, of it's removal of mass, dictates that it does exit the body.

The term to cross over would be correct if the Electric Energy which is our essence, slips into a different dimension or reality, which is layered over our own reality. Heaven and hell just beyond our reach.
