You know?
The origin of our life is Soul
Let's find out the answer by Christ Ahnsahnghong
I think all of people have thought once in a life about these guestions ; What happens to a man when he dies?” . . . “Does a man really have a spirit?” . . .“Where does a man go when he dies? Questions such as these have been a matter of great interest throughout history, but no one has been able to answer them. Men eager to find such answers wrote great philosophies, but mere philosophers could never realize how they had been created.
Christ Ahnsahnghong came to the earth, established the
Church of God, and taught us that all men are angels who have come to the earth after sinning in heaven.
He let us know how valuable we are and revealed to us the true purpose of our lives.
The Spirit Revealed Through the Creation of Human Beings
* Gen. 2:7 『. . . The LORD God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils
the breath of life, and the man became a living being.』
The dust is not the essence of life; God didn’t name the dust itself a “living being.”
Only after God had breathed the breath of life into the dust, did He call it a “living being.”
Therefore, the essence of life is not the flesh, but the breath of life, the spirit that God breathed into the dust.
Man’s flesh is made from the dust, but his spirit is made by God, and is from God.
King Solomon wrote, “The dust returns to the ground it came from, and the spirit returns to God who gave it” (Eccl. 12:7).
Jesus Taught Us About the “Spirit”
The record of soul in the New Testament.
*
Matt. 10:28 『”Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.”』
In this verse, Jesus describes the same creation process as in Genesis chapter 2,
revealing the separation between the death of the body [the dust] and the death of the spirit.
The Greek word for soul in this verse is “pneuma,” which means “spirit.”
*
John 4:24 『”God is spirit [pneuma].” 』
*
2 Cor. 33:17 『Now the Lord [Jesus] is the Spirit [pneuma].』
God is spirit and doesn’t belong in the flesh. Jesus is spirit and doesn’t belong in the flesh. Angels are also spirits who do not belong in the flesh. Thus, a man’s death can be separated into two events: the death of the flesh and the death of the spirit.
The Apostle Peter’s Thoughts”
The Apostle Peter always remembered what Jesus had told him before His ascension.
*
John 21:18-19 『”I tell you the truth, when you were younger you dressed yourself and went where you wanted; but when you are old you will stretch out your hands, and someone else will dress you and lead you where you do not want to go.
”Jesus said this to indicate the kind of death by which Peter would glorify God.』
When Peter’s life of the gospel was about to come to an end, he worried about the saints, remembering what Jesus had told him.
*
2 Pet. 1:13-14 『I think it is right to refresh your memory as long as I live in the tent of this body, because I know that I will soon put it aside, as our Lord Jesus Christ has made clear to me. And I will make every effort to see that after my departure you will always be able to remember these things.』
Peter described his death as “putting aside” the tent of the body, and as his “departure.”
It is clear that it is Peter’s spirit that would leave his body. While his spirit was in a fleshly body, the body itself became his spirit’s house; after his spirit’s departure, the body would return to the ground.
Our true Life
We often wonder, “Who am I?” Some say, “Man eats to live,” while others argue that,
“Man lives to eat.” Neither of these opinions is correct.
Our main essence is not our physical body, but the spirit inside our body. Our spirit lives in the tent we call our “body.”
When we go camping, we only stay in a tent for a few days, don’t we? The time we spend in the tent is temporary.
Likewise, our life within the body?our tent?is only a temporary life.
If we live for our physical body, it means that we are living for our house.
Life is to live for ourselves, not for the houses we dwell in.
In our life of faith, we sometimes focus on our physical life more than our spiritual life.
Of course, as long as we are in the body, we can’t deny the physical life; however, if we live only for a temporary tent which will soon disappear, how pitiful will our life be?
We live in these tents because of our sin, but after we receive the forgiveness of our sins, redemption?under the grace of Christ, the Passover Lamb?our eternal houses wait for us.
Let’s reconsider what we should focus on while we live on this earth.
*2 Cor. 4:18 『So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary,
but what is unseen is eternal.』
2,000 years ago ,Jesus christ already told us that our life is like grass and flowers in the field
Our life will be pass by swiftly
Therefore,
We have to live and work for spirit
