Soul and Spirit

However, if your definition is true that RIGHT NOW the soul by definition IS the body WITH the mind, thus a LIVING SOUL then to put the body to death would mean it CEASES TO BE LIVING and thus when man KILLED THE BODY he also caused it to CEASE BEING A LIVING SOUL and therefore destroyed THE LVING SOUL when he DESTROYED THE BODY.

Now, Biblicist, do you not see that your questioning and argument against me is also against you?

If that were my definition you would be right but your simply giving your own defintion rather than mine and so you are not right. Here is my definition:

"RIGHT NOW the soul by definition IS the mind, emotions and intellect EXISTING IN THE BODY along with the spirit existing in the body, thus man can kill a LIVING BODY but cannot put to death either the soul or spirit IN THAT BODY because man can only kill the body but not the soul or spirit. Upon death of the body the soul and spirit leave the body and go back to God.

If you believe the soul is the mind, emotion and intellect existing in the body...and that we ARE LIVING SOULS WHEN WE ARE IN OUR BODIES ON EARTH, then I have stated correctly, that you are arguing against me something that is against you too.

Genesis 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

I will continue to question you in the same way you question me about the scripture Matthew 10:28. I have noticed that you said a man could kill a LIVING BODY, but as you said to me, of course, man can kill a living body, and man does not kill a dead body. So, deny or confirm now if the living soul is a physical body with a mind, emotions, and intellect.
