Hi there
Life comes from the spirit and that comes from GOD. Humans have a spirit but animals dont. However animals, assume a chicken is has life too. life in the sense it can walk, fly...etc. Soul and body of the chicken it produced by the chicken egg. Therefore chicken egg has the ingridient to produce soul and body. (WOW facinating.....) But where does it get life? Since birds dont have a spirit, how do they become alive or have life in them? GOD creations are really amazing, and i'm facinated by his creations. GOD is a super super artists and he is the creator of all things.AMEN! cheers |

I think you answered your own question, Leonidus.
![]() God did create all things. God gives life. You know, plants are living specimens also. ![]() The spirit of God lives within humans but that doesn't mean there isn't other life out there. ![]() |

Spirit = breath= life. All animals have lfe and so must have a spirit-
Ecc 3:21 Who knoweth the spirit of man that goeth upward, and the spirit of the beast that goeth downward to the earth?

My science professor told us back in college - why do we assume that if aliens came down in their ship that they'd want to talk to us? We're the primitives. We may be sentient, but we're still the newbies on the planet. I think that if they came down, they'd be far more interested in the plantlife of the earth. It's life. It's been here for a long time. There's more of it than there are people.
![]() I like reading the part of the bible that says God gathered up the dust to form man and breathed the breath of life into his nostrils. That's me! Wow! God gave me the breath of life, right into these nostrils. What a glorious gift! His breath. The Breath of Life.Anyways, I'm just thinking outloud.

When you use the words "spirit" and "life" it is necessary to define what you mean. As far as having a "spirit" goes, all living things, whether a man,
a mouse, a worm, or an oak tree have a "spirit". This is the immortal part that all living things have. Without it, the body is just machinery. As far as a "rational spirit" goes, only humans and angels have this (this includes demons too). "Living" has little to do with the former. In one sense you are "alive" as long as the organic machinery you call a body functions properly. Those who "die" in Christ go on to permamnent "life", those who do not go on to a second "death". But in either case, both continue to exist and be aware for ever. There really is no death, only a change of character and location. |
