Before you read this study understand that we do not teach, we share and then ask all who read the following take it to God and verify it with Him. We believe a lot of the world is misled by the church of the world and religion vs the one true church. And to know the truth can only come from knowing, not just knowing of God, John 14:26, I John 2:27, Rev 3:19-22.
Many are called but few are chosen because many are misled by false teachers Matthew 7:13-15 so we help all who wants to know the truth how to find and know the truth of and by God and not of and by man.



Part 2 - The Spirit


Pastor J. R. Wilhite, author   Close Window

***If you are in the flesh or not in the spirit, do not read this study. It could be hard to follow and (though not meaning to) cause offense. In other words, pray to the Lord for understanding, an open heart, and wisdom before delving into this study.***

The spirit can be anguished.

And Moses spake so unto the children of Israel: but they heMarkened not unto oses for anguish of spirit, and for cruel bondage.

The spirit of man can be filled with different spirits, but only one soul.

Exodus 31:3
And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,

And the Spirit of the LORD came upon him, and he judged Israel, and went out to war: and the LORD delivered Chushanrishathaim king of Mesopotamia into his hand; and his hand prevailed against Chushanrishathaim.

I Samuel 1:15
And Hannah answered and said, No, my lord, I [am] a woman of a sorrowful spirit: I have drunk neither wine nor strong drink, but have poured Out my soul before the LORD.

Psalm 31:5
Into thine hand I comit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, 0 LORD God of truth.

The spirit of man came from God originally and needs the connection into the Holy Spirit
Psalm 51:10B
Create in me a clean heart, 0 God; and renew a right spirit within me.
Psalm 51:11
Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.
Psalm 143:7 Hear me speedily, 0 LORD: my spirit faileth: hide not thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.

The spirit of man [is] the candle of the LORD, searching all the inward parts of the belly.
Isaiah 11:2
And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD;

The soul makes the connection to the spirit or to the flesh and allows one or the other to control it.
Isaiah 26:9
With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee early: for when thy judgments [are] in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness.

The Spirit should control or lead the soul.

And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:

Matthew 4:1
Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.
Matthew 10:20
For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you.

We please God by allowing our spirit to lead our soul.

Matthew 12:18
Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit upon him, and he shall shew judgment to the Gentiles.

When we are born of a woman we are born of water, and this is the only legal way into this world, but then to re-unite with God it has to be by the spirit, because God is spirit.

John 3:5
Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and [of) the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

God [is] a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship [him] in spirit and in truth.

The spirit leading over the flesh will only happen in the soul. And the Spirit of God could not come to us until a connection in the Spirit realm and ours was made and that was done through Jesus.

It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, [they] are spirit, and [they] are life.

John 16:13

Acts 8:39
And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing.

Romans 8:1
[There is] therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

1 Corinthians 2:10
But God hath revealed [them] unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.

Proverbs 20:27
The spirit of man [is] the candle of the LORD, searching all the inward parts of the belly.

Luke 4:18
The Spirit of the Lord [is] upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,

Isaiah 10:27
And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.


The anointing (Christ) is the power and wisdom of God ON and IN man.
Before Satan fell he was the only anointed angel ever. As such he learned and knows the power of the anointing. And he has done his best to keep us divided so we will not be in the power and wisdom of God.
And where Satan keeps us divided is not in our spirit, he can not touch that, but in our soul.

In the following verses you should get the point, life is in the soul. A body can live without a spirit, but not a soul. When I say without a spirit, I mean the spirit of God. Further in I will point out there are two spirits at work, the Spirit of God and an evil spirit.
Romans 2:9
Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;

Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.

For the word of God [is] quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and [is] a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

Hebrews 10:38
Now the just shall live by faith: but if [any man] draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.

But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.

I Peter 2:11

2 Peter 2:8
(For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed [his] righteous soul from day to day with [their] unlawful deeds;)
