Lesson 9
The
Brain Soul Complex
Human Spirit - Part 4
5. Examples of correct read-outs from the soul with the
human spirit operational.
i. Sanctification - 1 Thes 5:23;
Eph 4:20-24 cp 3:16-19; Lk 1:80 cp 2:40
j. Absence of deceit - Ps 32:2
6. Human Spirit departs the body in physical death and
returns to God.
Eccl 12:7; Jas 2:26; Jn
19:30
7. The Function of the Human Spirit in relationship to
human history:
a.
1 Cor 1 & 2 document that there is definitely a system of
wisdom beyond the pale of the natural system of perception for man.
1 Cor
b.
It is
impossible to attain this wisdom through arm-chair philosophy and/or the
scientific laboratory while both are bound to the natural system within the
sphere of influence of the corrupting sin nature.
c.
They
can only observe natural phenomena and due to the influencing sin nature apart
from the indwelling H.S., and human spirit which will only distort true
metaphysical (spiritual) reality. Rom 1:18ff.
d.
So the
destiny of man and his universe as well as true origins are lost to them. cf 2 Pet 3:1-13.
e.
High
I.Q. is of no help to them but rather often becomes a liability under negative
volition - 1 Cor
f. The wisdom of
the kosmos, the world systems invented by high I.Q. types to explain reality,
are an attempt to actually rival or supplant God's wisdom.
g.
Those
born with high I.Q., natural ability, wealth or power as a group tend to reject
the P/G with its grace provisions for salvation and life through pride - arrogance. 1 Cor
h.
The
only by-pass to this limiting and distorting system of the natural system of
perception is:
1. The E/HS - neutralizing/isolating the sin nature.
2. The human spirit, a supernatural spiritual integrating
system given by grace
at salvation to interface between the brain and soul. 1 Cor
i.
The natural man's (psuchikos-man without the
spiritual bypass) read-out on doctrine is "foolishness" 1 Cor 2:14.
j. But to the positive believer under grace
provision for perception (called "pneumatikos-man)" he can attain all
true metaphysical reality. 1 Cor
k.
The
carnal believer (sarkikos type) like his unbeliever
counterpart distorts doctrine due to sin nature influence therefore becoming a casualty in A/C.
- 1 Cor 3:1 cp
l. The result of
this is believers possessing some of the weirdest and unbelievable
"read-outs" concerning "spiritual reality"
- so don't be puzzled when you run across believers who are
"weirdo's".
m. There is no excuse for this since we have the grace
system of perception and the completed canon. 1 Cor
n.
A
believer who has faithfully used the grace system cannot be accurately evaluated by anyone under the natural
system. 1 Cor
-
has no frame of reference of DVPT to evaluate believers by
DOCTRINE: OLD SIN NATURE
1. PRELIMINARY CONSIDERATIONS
a. Throughout this study a distinction must be maintained
between the "LIVING
SOUL" and the brain processes.
1. The living soul
is a substance (higher electrical energy) which is invisible but real, and
cannot be destroyed by any human means,
Mt 10:28
2. The brain (i.e.
the central nervous system which acts as a computer to interpret afferent
impulses-input via the 5 senses and also, upon command, send out efferent
impulses causing the body to act or react) is made from various sophisticated
biochemical elements. Gen 2:7; 1 Cor
