Are we spiritual beings inside physical bodies?

I've been thinking and thinking and this is the only conclusion I can reach. Because I don't think that I can be reduced to a certain sequence of genes. Sure, my body can, and my mind can, but I think that I remain outside of the genetic code, and that it is I that breathes life into my body and I that wills myself to think.

You feelin' me?

Yes, that is my understanding, that we are spiritual beings incarnate. Some people find it hard to truly incarnate, and go into 'spiritual flight' from the reality of life. Others find it hard to connect to the spirituality of their lives. The philosophy you are outlining is very close to that of psychosynthesis, the approach to psychotherapy that I practise. You might be interested to look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychosynthesis which gives a reasonable introduction.

non secular by using fact demons are spirits, they're fallen angels. guy is incapable of coming up something yet on my own demons purely God has the capability of advent. If guy could create demons which skill God created guy with the inclination to devote sin which might make Him a duelist God of the two stable and evil. for this reason i do no longer enroll in Judaism.

It gets a bit complicated....

Sometimes you'll hear it said and read that we're a spiritual being having a human experience,

not a human having a spiritual experience. From the perspective of God (you're a matrix of perspective mechanisms), its all Spirit. The elements are the tabernacle of God.

He who hath ears to hear the language of eternity, let him hear.

If you think the bible is enough of God's word, you're right;

it's enough to send you to hell.

Seek and ye shall find.

No, there is no distinction between the mind and body, our awareness is a product of our bodies and without it, we cease to exist.

You are learning, great. we are: mind, body(flesh) and soul(spirit)

God is: mind(God, the Father), body (Jesus) and spirit (soul).

We are made in God/Jesus' likeness/image. Our flesh will die, but we will get a new eternal body that will last forever and ever.

Our soul in the essence of who we are, mind thinking process and reasoning, and body to contain it all. This is not biblical but makes sense to me, and seems right.

bless you.

But the first part is biblical: we are three in one and God is three in one as well.
