(Adam, before the fall, was made in the image of God. “God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness” [Genesis 1:26].) So, God uses intelligent beings like you and me, and angels that are faithful, to do His bidding—filled with His Spirit.

  34. How is the Hebrew word for spirit (ruwach) used the second time in the Bible?

  37. How did Jesus understand the vision that Jacob was given of the ladder?
    “He saith unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Hereafter ye shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man” (John 1:51).
  38. As they inquired about God’s salvation, what spirit was in the prophets as they foretold of the sufferings of Christ?
    “Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you: 11 Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow” (1Peter 1:10-11).

  43. What happens to a body without the spirit?
    “For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also” (James 2:26).
  44. When Paul was with the Laodiceans in spirit, does that mean his spirit left him?

  52. In the context of a vail being over the eyes of some while reading the Old Testament, who do we need to go to for spiritual help to understand?
