1 Thessalonians 5:23
The Bible clearly states that we (Human Beings) are a Tri Being. We are a Spirit being, that has a Body & and a Soul. In the Book of Genesis, we read that God created us in his own Image or Likeness. God is a Tri Being as he reveals through the scriptures. God the Father, God the Son(Jesus) and God the Holy Spirit, yet he is One being just like you and I.
Is it purely coincidental that we too are also modeled after him with a Tri Being exsistance?. The Tri Being or Trinity teaching of God always challenges a lot of people, because quite simply, they find it difficult to understand. Sadly because they find it too difficult to understand or comprehend. I have noticed that it's easier too to put it into the too hard basket or become defensive in there own interpretation. Which of course makes a lot of sense, if you view it in that same light.
Our Soul is the area of our Mind, Will,Emotions. The Body part of our Tri Being is the Logic, Intution incorperating all the 7 sences like Sight, Smell, Taste, Speech, Touch etc.... It's my belief that the Trinity or God's 3 Part Being like you and I, can no longer be understood from our Soul or Body like it's was able too in it's former Time or State. And because of this new condition on the Soul and Body, neither of the two are able to correctly discern or correctly comprehend the Spiritual truth of the Trinity Being of God. Your Spirit which God recognises to be the Real you, is the only area of your Tri being that can fully understand Spiritual Truths.
Let's go back into the Garden of Eden too understand this a little better. When Adam and Eve were created, the were created into perfect Beings. Spirit, Soul and Body. They were without Sin or blemish and therefore not corrupt. They were in the perfect image and will of God, and enjoyed the blessings of there creator and his fellowship. So when Sin entered into there lives through there own disobedience. There entire being....Spirit, soul and body become corrupt and could no longer be in the presence of there creator and continue too live and enjoy the benefits of his blessings. God's anger towards Satan was evident, because through his(Satans) lies, he deceived Eve & Adam.
Thus God had to remove Adam & Eve from his Presence, where Intimate relationship with Hinself would be lost. He also knew that the sin would spread throughout our entire being like a disease which would distort and effect the way we make choices in our lives and whether or not we would want to have a relationship with God.
Have you ever one day realised with a deep sensing that there is something missing in your life? but you cant put your finger on it? So we assume it's lack of wordly belongings or exceptance, in which we spend most of our lives accumilating through Blood, sweat and Tears. We try to earn the exceptance of others through false pretence and we place tremendous expectations on ourselves. Only to realise that there is still something missing. Very few people are succesfully able to cover or put a false Band Aid over this feeling though denial or bitterness.
The truth is...that feeling of lonelyness or that sence of something missing in your life is very, very real. It is comeing from your Spirit Being(True Self) that longs for that reconnection with it's Creator. Just like too lovers who were seperated. So that's the simple version of how we became corrupt Tri Beings. Therefore restricting us & not being able to fully comprehend the spiritual truths of the scriptures. So God needed a plan to restore our Spirit Being which remember is our Core part that he connects with, so that we can and he can have that union again.
When you are Born Again by faith, you are in simple terms permitting God to restore your Spirit being back to it's former state. Your Spirit being within you is regenerated by the power of the Holy Spirit. How? The Holy Spirit joins with your spirit and you become one with him. Now the Soul and the Flesh are not restored back to there former glory. Too my understanding so far!... I have yet to study the scriptures in more depth to find the answers to that reason. However God gave us his Holy Scriptures to compensate for this. The scriptures say that if we meditate on his word and live after his commandments continually. Eventually our Soul will become renewed in the way it thinks and our Body can receive healing when needed.
God is not a man that he should lie. Because what he says will come to pass. When he said to Adam DO NOT eat of the tree that gives you knowledge of Good and Evil otherwise you will Die. So from the moment they ate of the tree, Satan's plan took effect to destroy God's loved ones. And the process of our Death Time Clock begun. So too understand God and to have union with him again like in the Garden of Eden all you need to do is get Born Again. Jesus gave us the example before he begun his ministry in the river Jordan, and it was only then on the first account that God declared Jesus to be his Son in whom he is well pleased with. If you try too understand God with your Soul which remember has been corrupted by sin and is not like it's former state. You will never truly and fully understand the Spiritual truths of the scriptures.
How many times have you tried to understand the Heart and mind of God and you end up becoming more confused and or sometimes disillusioned. It does not seem to make what we would consider logical sense? Well know you know why! It's only with the guidance and leading of the Holy Spirit that dwells within you after being Born Again that you will come to understand progressively your true identity, and purpose in life!
