WHAT IS LIFE, WEBSTER RECORDS 4: spiritual existence transcending physical death. I BELIEVE THAT LIFE IS A SPIRIT, I BASE MY OPINION ON THIS VERSE OF SCRIPTURE.

Jms:2:26: For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also. (KJV)

WHAT IS THE SOURCE OF ALL LIFE? GOD THE FATHER IS THE SOURCE OF ALL LIFE. IF THE MIND CAN IMAGINE IT, GOD THE FATHER HAS ALWAYS BEEN ALIVE. AND, JESUS CHRIST AS THE WORD OF GOD HAS BEEN IN GOD THE FATHER FROM EVERLASTING.

Mi:5:2: But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting. (KJV)

IN THE BEGINNING OF CREATION, GOD THE FATHER SPOKE; AND HE TOOK HIS WORD, AND SHAPED HIS WORD IN SUCH A WAY THAT THE WORD OF GOD, BECAME THE SON OF GOD.

Jn:1:1: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. (KJV)

JESUS CHRIST THE SON OF GOD IS THE FIRST BORN OF EVERY CREATURE. WHAT IS A CREATURE? A CREATURE IS SOMETHING THAT WAS CREATED.

Col:1:15: Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: (KJV)

WHEN GOD THE FATHER CREATED THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, HE CREATED HIM EQUAL TO HIMSELF.

Phil:2:6: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: (KJV)

THEREFORE, WAS JESUS CHRIST CREATED THE SAME SIZE AS GOD THE FATHER, DID HE HAVE THE SAME POWER AS GOD THE FATHER, WAS HE OF THE SAME SUBSTANCE AS THE FATHER, DID HE LOOK EXACTLY AS GOD THE FATHER? YES, FOR ANY TWO THINGS TO BE EQUAL, THEY MUST BE IDENTICAL.

Heb:1:1: God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,

Heb:1:2: Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;

Heb:1:3: Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;

WHEN GOD THE FATHER CREATED JESUS CHRIST, HE CREATED HIM A QUICKENING SPIRIT, A LIFE GIVING SPIRIT. JESUS CHRIST BRINGS TO LIFE EVERY CREATURE, WITHIN WHOM THERE IS LIFE.

1Cor:15:45: And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. (KJV)

THE APOSTLE ST. JOHN WAS INSPIRED OF GOD TO RECORD THESE WORDS ABOUT THE LORD JESUS CHRIST. JOHN RECORDS THAT IN JESUS IS LIFE, AND LIFE WAS THE LIGHT OF MAN.

Jn:1:1: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

Jn:1:2: The same was in the beginning with God.

Jn:1:3: All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

Jn:1:4: In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

Jn:1:5: And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

GOD THE FATHER CREATED THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, AND GOD BY JESUS CHRIST CREATED ALL THINGS VISIBLE, AND INVISIBLE.

Eph:3:9: And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: (KJV)

THE APOSTLE PAUL WAS ALSO INSPIRED OF GOD TO RECORD THESE WORDS ABOUT THE LORD JESUS CREATING ALL THINGS.

Col:1:15: Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:

Col:1:16: For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:

Col:1:17: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.

Col:1:18: And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.

WHEN JESUS CHRIST CREATED THE MAN ADAM, HE SHAPED ADAM OF THE DUST OF THE EARTH, AND THEN BREATHED INTO HIS NOSTILS THE BREATH OF LIFE. WHEN JESUS CREATED ADAM HE PLACED WITHIN ADAM ALL MANKIND, AND WHEN JESUS BREATHED INTO ADAM'S NOSTRILS THE BREATH OF LIFE, ALL MANKIND CAME TO LIFE.

Gn: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.

GOD IS A TRINITY IN UNITY, FATHER, SON, AND HOLY GHOST, AND WHEN JESUS CHRIST CREATED MAN HE CREATED HIM A TRINITY IN UNITY, BODY, SOUL, AND SPIRIT. WHEN JESUS BREATHED LIFE INTO ADAM, ADAM WAS MADE WHOLE HE HAD A LIVING BODY, SOUL, AND SPIRIT. EVERY HUMAN BEING WITHIN ADAM WAS WHOLE BODY, SOUL, AND SPIRIT. IN THE DAY THAT ADAM TRANSGRESSED THE COMMANDMENT OF GOD, THE SPIRIT OF GOD LEFT ADAM, AND ADAM DIED THE SPIRITUAL DEATH, THE INWARD MAN THE SOUL OF MAN DIED. AND BECAUSE OF OUR PHYSICAL UNION WITH ADAM WE ALL DIED THE SPIRITUAL DEATH.

1Cor:15:22: For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. (KJV)

NOW WHEN A CHILD IS BORN INTO THE WORLD, HE IS ALIVE PHYSICALLY, BUT DEAD SPIRITUALLY. HE MUST BE BORN AGAIN, BORN OF WATER BAPTIZED, AND BORN OF THE SPIRIT; RECEIVING THE WASHING OF REGENERATION, AND THE RENEWING OF THE HOLY GHOST.

Jn:3:1: There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:

Jn:3:2: The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.

Jn:3:3: Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

Jn:3:4: Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?

Jn:3:5: Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

Jn:3:6: That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

Jn:3:7: Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.

WHAT IS THE KINGDOM OF GOD? THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS RIGHTEOUSNESS, PEACE, AND JOY IN THE HOLY GHOST.

Rom:14:17: For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost. (KJV)

WHEN THE ELECT OF GOD RECEIVE THE HOLY GHOST, THE INWARD MAN THE SOUL COMES TO LIFE. THE OUTWARD MAN OF FLESH, AND BLOOD SHALL PERISH, IT IS THE SOUL OF MAN THAT SHALL LIVE IN ETERNITY. FOR THE INWARD MAN THE SOUL IS RENEWED DAY BY DAY.

2Cor:4:16: For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. (KJV) SATAN, AND HIS CHILDREN, HUNT FOR THE PRECIOUS LIFE THAT IS IN THE SOUL TO DESTROY IT. IF A MAN AFTER HE HAS BEEN BORN AGAIN, GOES INTO A WOMAN, AND COMMITS ADULTERY WITH HER, THE PHYSICAL MAN WILL GET UP AND WALK AWAY, BUT THE INWARD MAN THE SOUL SHALL BE DESTROYED.

Prv:6:32: But whoso committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding: he that doeth it destroyeth his own soul. (KJV)

SOLOMON RECORDS THESE WORDS CONCERNING THE HARLOT, AND HER HOME.

Prv:7:1: My son, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with thee.

Prv:7:2: Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye.

Prv:7:3: Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thine heart.

Prv:7:4: Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman:

Prv:7:5: That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which flattereth with her words.

Prv:7:6: For at the window of my house I looked through my casement,

Prv:7:7: And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,

Prv:7:8: Passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house,

Prv:7:9: In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night:

Prv:7:10: And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart.

Prv:7:11: (She is loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house:

Prv:7:12: Now is she without, now in the streets, and lieth in wait at every corner.)

Prv:7:13: So she caught him, and kissed him, and with an impudent face said unto him,

Prv:7:14: I have peace offerings with me; this day have I payed my vows.

Prv:7:15: Therefore came I forth to meet thee, diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee.

Prv:7:16: I have decked my bed with coverings of tapestry, with carved works, with fine linen of Egypt.

Prv:7:17: I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.

Prv:7:18: Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning: let us solace ourselves with loves.

Prv:7:19: For the goodman is not at home, he is gone a long journey:

Prv:7:20: He hath taken a bag of money with him, and will come home at the day appointed.

Prv:7:21: With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with the flattering of her lips she forced him.

Prv:7:22: He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks;

Prv:7:23: Till a dart strike through his liver; as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it is for his life.

Prv:7:24: Hearken unto me now therefore, O ye children, and attend to the words of my mouth.

Prv:7:25: Let not thine heart decline to her ways, go not astray in her paths.

Prv:7:26: For she hath cast down many wounded: yea, many strong men have been slain by her.

Prv:7:27: Her house is the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death.

IN WHAT PART OF THE BODY DOES THE SPIRIT OF LIFE DWELL? THE LIFE OF THE FLESH IS IN THE BLOOD. WE AS CHRISTIANS ARE NOT TO EAT BLOOD BECAUSE GOD HAS GIVEN IT UPON THE ALTAR TO MAKE AN ATONEMENT FOR OUR SOULS. I WOULD IMAGINE THAT WHEN THE SURGEONS READ THESE VERSES OF SCRIPTURE, IT GAVE THEM THE IDEA OF BLOOD TRANSFUSIONS.

Lv:17:10: And whatsoever man there be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, that eateth any manner of blood; I will even set my face against that soul that eateth blood, and will cut him off from among his people.

Lv:17:11: For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul.

WHERE IS ETERNAL LIFE? ETERNAL LIFE IS IN THE BODY OF CHRIST.

1Jn:5:11: And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. (KJV)

SINCE ETERNAL LIFE IS IN THE BODY OF CHRIST, THE QUESTION MUST ARISE, HOW DO WE GET INTO THE BODY OF CHRIST. WE ARE BAPTIZED INTO THE BODY OF CHRIST.

Gal:3:27: For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. (KJV)

WHEN THE ELECT OF GOD ARE BAPTIZED OUT OF THE WORLD, AND INTO THE BODY OF CHRIST WE ACTUALLY BECOME A MEMBER IN THE BODY OF CHRIST. THEREFORE, WHEN WE LAY OUR HANDS ON SOMEONE THE BODY OF CHRIST IS TOUCHING THAT PERSON, AND WHEN SOMEONE TOUCHES US THEY ARE TOUCHING THE BODY OF CHRIST.

1Cor:12:27: Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular. (KJV)

I BELIEVE THAT THE NAME JESUS CHRIST IS THE MASTER KEY TO THE KINGDOM OF GOD. WHEN WE, THE ELECT OF GOD, ARE BAPTIZED IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST WE ARE TRANSLATED OUT OF THE WORLD, AND INTO THE BODY OF CHRIST. AND WHEN WE RECEIVE THE HOLY GHOST, THE INWARD MAN THE SOULS COMES TO LIFE, AND WE BECOME A NEW CREATURE, AND NEW CREATION. OLD THINGS PASS AWAY, ALL THINGS BECOME NEW.

2Cor:5:17: Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. (KJV)

IF A PERSON HAS BEEN BAPTIZED, BUT HAS NOT RECEIVED THE HOLY GHOST, IS IT SCRIPTURAL TO BE BAPTIZED A SECOND TIME? YES, IN THE DAYS OF THE APOSTLE PAUL, HE MET SOME DISCIPLES OF JOHN THE BAPTIST. AND PAUL ASKED THEM THIS QUESTION, HAVE YOU RECEIVED THE HOLY GHOST SINCE YOU BELIEVED.

Acts:19:1: And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples,

Acts:19:2: He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost.

Acts:19:3: And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John's baptism.

Acts:19:4: Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.

Acts:19:5: When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.

Acts:19:6: And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.

Acts:19:7: And all the men were about twelve.

THERE ARE CERTAIN THINGS YOU MUST DO IF YOU PLAN ON MAKING HEAVEN YOUR ETERNAL HOME. YOU MUST REPENT, YOU MUST PLACE YOUR FAITH, AND TRUST IN THE LORD JESUS CHRIST FOR YOUR SALVATION, YOU MUST BE BORN OF WATER, AND THE SPIRIT, YOU MUST EAT OF THE FLESH, AND DRINK OF THE BLOOD OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST. YOU MUST WORK IN THE HARVEST OF SOULS. YOU MUST KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD. WE HAVE BEEN ORDAINED TO GOOD WORKS, THEREFORE I SAY UNTO YOU FILL YOUR LIFE WITH GOOD WORKS. HUMBLE YOURSELF, AND WASH THE FEET OF THE SAINTS OF GOD, AND ALLOW THEM TO WASH YOUR FEET.

Jn:13:8: Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.

Jn:13:9: Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.
