"And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell."
Here Jesus refers to a body which is formed of dust of the ground.. Man is created in the image of God. It is in this sense the psalm refers to the Advent of his Son,"Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,"(Ps.40.7). The writer to the Hebrews annotates it in terms of works. Faith with which two worlds are framed by the word cannot be anyother than His holiness. Writing 'in the volume of the book' is a sign and the death of the Word become flesh on the cross consequently serves as the faith with works. When a believer in faith identifies himself with the rest of God it simply means he abides in Christ and as a branch of the true Vine produces worthy fruits. Soul is a sign of the body prepared for Christ that he shall put on. It is a glorious spiritual body and denotes the everlasting life.
Now we shall examine the clause,' but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell." God breathed into the nostrils of Adam and made him a living soul. Notice the significance that the Spirit does not mention God making Eve a living soul. God is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. Soul of man or inner man is Memory or Presence of the Lord so conscience is pricked in a natural man. In the case of Adam, God warned that he shall die in the day he ate of it. His sense of nakedness and fear of the presence as God walked in the cool of the day reveals a stark change. Besides physical Adam gave way to a latter Adam. To all intent and purpose the entire memory of the man has bee wiped out. 'second death' leaves inner man cast into hell, where worm dieth not. Hell into the lake of fire that quencheth not. ( Mk 9.43-44)God's gifts are without repentance so soul of Adam suffer complete annihilation. So who are sons of Adam?
