Breath on me breath of G-d

[Guest Zayit]

Any remember this old hymn?

Breathe on me, breath of G-d,

Fill me with life anew,

That I may love what Thou dost love,

And do what Thou wouldst do.

Breathe on me, breath of G-d,

Until my heart is pure,

Until with Thee I will one will,

To do and to endure.

Breathe on me, breath of G-d,

Blend all my soul with Thine,

Until this earthly part of me

Glows with Thy fire divine.

Breathe on me, breath of G-d,

So shall I never die,

But live with Thee the perfect life

Of Thine eternity.

Had some questions:

First life or true life?

Gen 2:7

And the L-RD G-d formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. 

Yeshua breathed on them to receive the Holy Spirit, was this the same breath that gives life from the beginning before sin or a different one?

N@shamah the spirit/Breath of G-d.

John 20:22

And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost:

Yes, and you could have done the same instead of first derailing this thread. Funny I was lambasted for making to many threads about the law ( even though there were all different things I wished to discuss ) and flooding the boards with posts about law. So I tried to ask questions about other things that come to my mind when reading the Word and I get asked my beliefs so you know how to answer? *scratches head* am I that foreign here?

Yes, to answer your question, I am a Messianic Jewish believer in Yeshua HaMoschiach, my L-RD and savior, Saved by his grace alone, and I live each day to grow in what he teaches me, I follow where he leads, my only goal in life is the Truth and obedience to the one who saved me . I hope that answers your question enough to answer this post, elsewise I don't mean to sound sarcastic but I would rather not have an answer from anyone based on my beliefs, I ask questions to see what other think and believe.

Sorry Zayit - I though I was being rather polite ? I guess not. I meant no offense by my question Honestly; I meant no offense at all. Just wanted that to be clear. Do you forgive me ?

Aww, I was afraid you would think you offended me, I am not offended brother, I understand , I truly do. But please understand me, I have no answer, this is just something I have a question on, ( Jews always have questions ) and my mind is never satisfied I always want to learn more of my G-d and my Savior, don't you?

No forgiveness needed. You have done me no wrong.

Good question, zayit, and one that now has me thinking. My first inclination is to say since God is unchangeable, it is one and the same "breath".

If I come up with anything definitive, or Biblically supported, you'll be the first to know.

Thanks for the great question!

Peace,

Thanks so much my friend- I was afraid I hurt you- and I never want to hurt anyone And to answer your question- yes, I too always want to learn more of my God and Saviour...my mind is never satisfied either. Thanks again for clearing things up...let me ponder your original question for a bit

May you be richly blessed,

And you as well Tim.

Let me eloborate on my original post, I have so many questions today I want to get them out and sometimes shortchange the op.

Now, Adam when he was created he was created in a sinless world. G-d breathed in his nostrils the breath of life and he became a living soul, at this point one that was immortal as death had not come yet because sin hadn't entered in.

Now in the NT times, when Yeshua is with his disciples, on the night before his crucifixtion he breaths on them and tells them to receive the Holy Spirit. I believe this is the same spirit that was breathed into Adam. Now my question is, With Adam it was life "everlasting" that was breathed into him, but was later taken back when the death sentence was passed.

Now the disciples believing in Yeshua and what he would do ( took much faith here) have been given that same breath of eternal life which is the Spirit of G-d that gives eternal life.

Do you think that they are one and the same, the one Adam had breathed into him and the one the the second Adam breathed into his believers?

Zayit,

I don't know the theological answer for your question, but I'll give you my gut feeling on it. There are two births - one physical and one spiritual, so I would say that the breath that was breathed into us to give us a physical birth is different from the breath that is breathed into us to give us a spiritual birth. But the source is the same - God.

[Guest Zayit]

Yes! That was what I was thinking but couldn't seem to get it out. Now what I am asking though is the breath in Adam ( because this was before sin entered in) the same breath that is the Holy Spirit breath breathed into them by Yeshua.

I think Adam had this and then lost it ( of course he had the other breath) he had both but lost the one, now we who are reborn again have gotten back that true breath that gives life eternal.

Halleluyah!
