Life-Giving Spirit
(From Forerunner Commentary)

1 Corinthians 15:45  (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up) Quickening in the King James means "life-giving." The reference is to His composition: He was made "a life-giving" Spirit. John W. Ritenbaugh The Holy Spirit and the Trinity (Part 1)

1 Thessalonians 5:23  (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up) Paul here refers to the mind in man when he uses the word "spirit." And to the physical life when he uses the word "soul." And to the flesh when he uses the word "body."

Nothing! That is something we should all fervently desire! Just What Is Man?
