2 Corinthians 5
1 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.
2 For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:
3 If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked.
4 For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life.
5 Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit.
6 Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord:
7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight
8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.

This is but a lovely poetry...
Mortality will be swallowed up at resurrection and we will be clothed with the new body...
Absent in the body is definitely for believers present with the Lord.

Separation from each other . One returns to the dust of the field as rudiments of this corrupted world .The other the corrupted spirit returns to the father of all spirit life who gave it temporally subject to the letter of the law. "thou shalt not"
Ecclesiastes 12:7 Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.
Those who have been freely given a new born again spirit and ne heart as the seat of desire .they will rise on the last day and receive the goal of their faith a new body that will never die or grow old.
James 2:26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

Topic: Soul, "nepes" noun- self, will, emotions, mind person.
Topic: Spirit,"pneuma" noun, signifies (a) "breath, the breath of life," (b) "wind," "spirit," "breath."
1 Thess 5:23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole "spirit and soul and body" be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
(NOTE: We are spirit, soul & body)
Man is spirit with a soul that lives in a body
Heb 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the "dividing asunder of soul and spirit", and of the joints and marrow,
(NOTE: Man can't physically see nor separate soul or spirit, GOD CAN)
John 4:24 (A) God is a spirit.
Gen 2:7 God breathed His life giving spirit, into mans body & man became a living soul.
(NOTE: Man is only a "living soul" in relation to & in conjunction with the body. When the body dies & the two are no longer one. Yet, spirit/soul continue to live on)
Ecc 12:7 Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.
Matt 16:26 & Mk 8:36 What would it profit a man. To gain the whole world & lose his soul. (NOTE: A soul/spirit can be lost).
Our choices in this life will determine whether our spirit/soul spend eternity in the presents of God our creator. Or eternity seperated from God our creator.
Physical death is the separation of the soul/spirit from the body

Your Question: What support do you have for spiritual death?
Spiritual death is the separation from God's presents

(NOTE: We are seperated/alienated from the life of God via sin.)
Gen 2:16-17 God warns Adam about sin.

Gen 3:23 God exiles Adam from the Garden & His presents. RIGHT HERE Adam die's a spiritual death.
Eph 2:1 And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;
(NOTE: Faith in Christ's sin payment & resurrection can quickens/makes us SPIRITUALLY alive. And now thru Jesus we can boldly stand in God's presents Heb 4:16)
I believe Adam did IN FACT die spiritually & physically """in the day""" he ate the friut
Scripture's teach:
Ps 90:4 For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
NOTE: In Gods sight a day 1000 years is like yesterday = 1 day)
2 Pet 3:8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
(NOTE: With the Lord, 1 day is like 1000 years)
Genesis 5:5 And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died. (Adam died 930 yrs old)
Even though Adam lived to be 930. He did in fact, die """IN THE DAY""" he ate the fruit.

The spirit returns to the Lord, the giver of life. The soul lives eternally. If the spirit dies, the body dies. If the their spirit died that day, their body would have died that day.
I don’t see in Scripture where the spirit ever dies. When a lost man dies, his spirit returns to the Lord. It’s not dead.

Hi John,
You may be right. Before conversion we are dead spiritually, yet we have life in us. So, in that sense the spirit can die. Also, we have those that are never regenerated going into eternal separation. I not absolutely sure exactly how that plays out either. True the angels that rebelled face will face eternal torment.
Luke 17:29 29
But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.
(Note: Here we see then ALL destroyed)
Jude 1:7 Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.
(NOTE: Here we know the cities aren't still on fire. Yet, their eternal judgment is final)
Any help with some scriptural clarity would be appreciated. Thx FD

Spiritual death is not biblically supported.it is just a myth.
How can you separate from God presence. GOD IS OMNIPRESENT.
Basically.
Body goes back to dust. It dies
Spirit (breath of life goes back to God)
Spirit dont die.
Angels are ministering spirits, and yet those who sin are not dead...they are not spiritually dead...
Those spirits/angels who sinned are kept in lowest darkness and still alive...for they are immortal.

Ok, we disagree no harm no foul. Scripture teachs, for some there are 2 deaths For others just one.
Rev 2:11 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.
Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
If it's as simple as you say: Our body dies & our spirit goes back to God.
How would you reconcile these two verses?

To understand more about our salvation.
Did Jesus died physically or spiritually?
Colossians 2:13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;
We, through Adam, are dead in our sins, and will go on to spiritual death if we don't believe on Christ, who raises us and gives us spiritual life.
Colossians 2:11-12 In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ: Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.
We, through Adam, are dead in our sins, and will go on to spiritual death if we don't believe on Christ, who raises us and gives us spiritual life.

See how this doctrine of spiritual death belittle the death of Christ.
1. Buried with him- when was Jesus buried??? Were you alive at that time?
2. Quickened with him- were quickened with him at that time.
Understanding that death came in, is one of the key.
Adam live 930 years but could have lived forever.
Death came in so he died.
Again going back to basic.
Body dies return to dust.
Spirit return to God.
Adam sin and he died...its not spiritual separation...he actually died.
1. Christ taste death for everyman, and through baptism we are (poetry) buried with him.
2. Christ - 1Co 15:45 KJV And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit...
Christ died because his body was made of flesh...
He was made a quickening spirit when he raised from the dead.
We will also be quickened at his coming.
1Co 15:44 KJV It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
