Where does the soul come from. Is it created by normal procreation or does God create a fallen soul for each new person or did he create all the souls at the beginning?

    The trinitarianism of man comes mainly from Greek philosophy The Bible uses soul spirit heart interchangeably Very few verses mention spirit and soul together This is not to say man is not 3-being but it certainly bids the question

    This is a good question Link Hudson Does the BIBLE even answer that – in comparison to other religions which do…

      God breathed into Adam’s nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living soul.

      So God creates the soul? What about lost souls?

      Link Hudson So by breathing into.Adams nostrils we can say that Adams ” soul” came from God and Troy asks a tricky question ” So God creates the soul?”

      yes it seems to be for a soul less church – Link Hudson misquoted the verse about God breading which explains the spirit of man but not the soul at all

      Troy Day We Biblically can say the spirit that indwelled Adam.came from God…but his ” soul”?
      We tend to explain soul as mind(intellect) wil and emotions…and this defination is different from spirit.
      Jesus said God is spirit so we can say we know where spirit comes from but about soul?
      There is just one verse in the whole Bible which (to me) gives a ” soul structure”…Eccess 12:6….

      In Eccess 12:6 there is mention of ” a silver cord” a pitcher a golden bowl…which are a kind of ” components” of sth..(would this be a soul?) Iam just thinking..

      so is the becoming of the living soul where souls came from? IF SO we have many souls that did NOT come to be this way
