since 1980 when i became a Believer ... i have never been sorry! I have met a few sorry christians but never met a christian who was sorry! I would consider myself to be classed as a "professional student" of Christ Jesus until it's time for the "catching up"/Resurrection.

  well, since Paul says he is the Apostle to the Gentiles, and 5 times time us to follow his lead ... i would say tha I am a disciple of Paul.

  I would suggest that before anyone "assumes" something, or makes any "blanket" statement on THIS question of what has  a soul or doesn't, that they pick up their Strongs Concordance and look up the word SOUL & its various translations of it!! The 1st ref to animals having a soul is in Gen.1 !

Got saved in 1980 (everything before is Irrelevant & Forgiven)! Became a "spiritual sponge" since then, devouring most any Biblical Reference book i could--now has 700+ ref books & counting. Out of my 53 different English Bible Translations, it has been an Eye Opener to read the Bible through (in a different translation) every year.

GREETINGS Tom.                                                                                                                                                                    Thank You for your welcome......No, Berean Research is independant of any other Ministry and  is not connected to BBS, nor the Institute, nor Grace Bible College, nor any Berean/Grace Fellowship, except by common belief (few variations).  We are Mid-Acts Dispensationalists, No water baptism, "12 out", use the KJV with Stevens Greek Text (standard) comparing other texts,  etc.                                                                                                                                                                     PostNote : i  will be adding my share of insight to a few Post Topics as time permits. TOM, i'll be happy to answer any questions you may have about this Ministry or its beliefs as they occur.

  GREETINGS 2 U All. I have always been an avid reader! Got Saved in 1980. Became a "sponge" & read the KJV Bible as well as all i could get my hands on concerning Biblical themes!
