MY AFTERTHOUGHTS – THINKING ALOUD: HUMAN SPIRIT BEING TRAINING VS PHYSICAL BEING TRAINING – THE COST AND THE WORTH!
It’s time to take stock and consider your investment – daily, weekly, monthly and yearly – on your priceless HUMAN SPIRIT BEING in comparison to your PHYSICAL BEING.
Firstly and lastly, you need to know for sure that the MAN (non gender in terms) in HU-MAN being is a SPIRIT BEING; has a consciousness call a SOUL – SOULISH BEING and lives in HU (HUMUS) – clay, sand or dust – call a BODY – the PHYSICAL BEING sight we all see – hence the HUMAN BEING. The real you – the MAN BEING, is the being giving you life, which is eternal and lives by God’s BREATH, depends on God’s BREATH and can’t die because is GOD BREATHED; while the BODY is your PHYSICAL being that is housing your human SPIRIT being, and it depends on OXYGEN to be alive, hence it’s subject to die – that is, to it thus decay, no matter what. And when it decays, the eternal spirit being MAN returns back to God while the decayed body return back to the HU (humus) of the HU-MAN – named as clay, sand, dust from where it was made. So what makes the real being is the MAN being of the HU-MAN being, which is the spirit being.
Consider what it does cost in TIME, EFFORT and FINANCE – and the corresponding and expected worth on PHYSICAL TRAINING/EXERCISE for your physical being – when you take note of the Tens, Hundreds, Thousands, Millions and Billions of financial cost that are spent respectively by individuals and or corporations, governments and charities – just to Keep fit and to ensure a healthy physical well being of the individual and society. And yes, in all these continuous investment in cost, the Scriptures does indicates that it ONLY PROFIT OR WORTH JUST A LITTLE IN PHYSICAL TERMS – which is relative in a way as it affects the whole character and behavioural state of the Individuals and society at large.
Could you imagine when such measure of cost in TIME, EFFORT and FINANCE as in physical being training is expended on the spirit being training by – Individuals and or corporations, governments and charities. I mean the expected worth returns in character and behavioural state to an Individual and society at large; if and when, say 30 percent, are invested on TRAINING the SPIRIT BEING MAN that leads to complete and total wholeness of the: spirit, soul and body? The result will be enormous, incomprehensible and unimaginable, because it’s worth have a PRESENT, FUTURE AND ETERNAL EFFECT in an individual and society at large.
THINK ABOUT IT AS THE SCRIPTURE WILL SAY:
“. . . TRAIN YOURSELF TOWARD GODLINESS (piety), [keeping yourself SPIRITUALLY FIT]. 8 For PHYSICAL TRAINING is of some value (useful for a little), but godliness (SPIRITUAL TRAINING) is USEFUL and of value in EVERYTHING and in every way, for it holds promise for the present life and also for the life which is to come.” 1 Timothy 4:7-8 (Amplified).
“Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you COMPLETELY; and may your WHOLE spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ” 1 Thessalonians 5:23 NKJV.
“But there is a spirit in MAN, And the BREATH of the Almighty GIVES him understanding” Job 32:8 NKJV.
“The Spirit of God has MADE me, And the BREATH of the Almighty GIVES me life” Job 33:4 NKJV.
“The spirit of a MAN is the LAMP of the Lord, SEARCHING all the INNER DEPTHS of his HEART” Proverbs 20:27 NKJV.
“He has made everything beautiful and appropriate in its time. He has also planted ETERNITY [a sense of divine purpose] in the HUMAN HEART [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can satisfy, except God]—yet man cannot find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end” Ecclesiastes 3:11 (Amplified).
