combined spirit entity of the foetus-with-blood (Gen 2:22-25, 5:2, Lev 17:11,
               Psalm 51:5, 58:3, 1 Cor 15:46).


               The flesh, and its mind, continues to sin in a Christian (Rom 6:7, 8:23, 1 John
               1:8).  Despite this Christians should be perfect (2 Cor 13:11, 1 Thes 3:13, 5:23)
               although this does not happen to the flesh, as it should (Phil 3:12, 1 Pet 4:1) until
               the resurrection (1 Cor 13:10, 15:42-44, Phil 3:21). A Christian’s overall mind, the
               combination of the flesh and spirit minds, will be embued with Christ and the
               perfect basic spirit’s mind (Rom 8:5, 1 Cor 2:16, Eph 4:23).  As a result the overall
               mind should become in net terms a powerful force for good (Rom 7:25, 8:5, Eph
               4:23) and often indeed a reflection of the spirit such that it becomes almost
               indistinguishable from the mind of the spirit and is therefore spirit-like (Rom 8:5,
               Eph 4:23).


               Paul did not sin when he was restless in his perfect basic spirit. This was not basic
               spirit sin as the basic spirit may have good cause to be restless (2 Cor 2:12-13).
               Jesus was ‘troubled in spirit’ and did not sin (John 13:21).  Christians, because of
               Christ’s sacrifice can not be troubled in spirit (Psalm 46:1, Prov 11:8). Jesus as a
               Man on Earth was ‘troubled’ in spirit (John 13:21) and indeed God who is a Spirit
               is shown as having ‘fierce anger’ (Num 25:4).

               It is absolutely possible and available for Christians to know in their conscious

               minds all doctrine in sufficient accuracy and detail to behave correctly in every
               circumstance (Mat 10:19-20, Mark 13:11, John 14:26, 16:13, 2 Tim 3:16-17
               ‘perfect’).  Furthermore there should be unanimity of belief throughout the church
               and this is a default pre-requisite for really effective world evangelism (John
               17:20-21) along with Christians loving one another (John 13:34-35). The primary
               default is that all has already been achieved that is necessary for belief by all (John
               1:1, Rom 1:20, 10:18, Col 1:23).  The stipulation that the Word must be preached
               to the whole world prior to Jesus’ return is similarly, potentially, over-ridden by
               the primary default that everything that is necessary has been achieved already
               (John 1:1, Rom 1:20, 10:18, Col 1:23) and therefore the return of Christ now is not
               impossible as revealed by the whole Word (Mat 24:42, Mark 13:35).

               God knows more about us than we know ourselves (1 Kings 8:39-40, 2 Chron
               6:30, Job 23:10, Psalm  26:2, 139:1-16, Jer 12:3). This means that God is
               interacting with our own selves, a mystery to us, with the mystery of His Salvation
               (Job 9:21, 23:10, Psalm 26:2, 39:11, 139:7-8, Jer 12:3, Jer 17:9-10, 32:19).  This
               explains all suffering and blessing that we can not explain as God is trying by this
               process of blessing and suffering to convert us such that we become alive from
