    As to how souls work off the surface of the earth, you have raised an interesting question.

    We know from Genesis 2:7 that the Soul is conveyed via the breath. I also note they we bless each other when we sneeze, as during a sneeze the normal equilibrium of air inside us and outside us is disturbed, rendering our Souls briefly vulnerable to the depredations of Satan. We may draw the conclusion that air in pressurized canisters transported moonward from the earth's surface will be amenable to Soul inspiration by infants bore there via otherwise 'normal' means. Air that would be mechanically, electrically, and/or chemically derived from lunar materials is problematic. Infants drawing their first breaths from such artificial air may not be enSouled until they return to earth and breathe the natural atmosphere here. Such individuals would present a dilemma until enSoulment. Sharing Scripture with such 'entities' is of considerable concern to me. One would not preach to dogs or chimps, as they are unenSouled, and so to, to preach to an unenSouled human being would raise grave questions as to what end is being accomplished by such Biblical instruction, as the 'individual' would under no circumstances be able to experience Salvation under any circumstances as long as 'it' remained Soulless.

    This is a profound topic. I shall pray for further guidance . . . .
    But couldn't the Holy Spirit, wearing a suitable (i.e. invisible) spacesuit breath life into the child? The Holy Spirit is not bound by the Earth

    1 Corinthians 2:12 (King James Version)

    Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.

    You might want to grab a dictionary and look up the definitions of the words "omnipresent," "omnipotent" and "omniscient." It might clarify things.

    Who do you think created things beyond our planet?

    Genesis 1:1: In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

    Genesis 1:7-8: And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which [were] under the firmament from the waters which [were] above the firmament: and it was so. And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.

    Genesis 1:16: And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: [he made] the stars also.


    Since God created these things (and in fact manifested His creative power over Heaven twice), how could His power possibly not reach to them?

    Additionally, such moon gestated individuals would present grave problems for the criminal justice system. A corner stone of all our legal proceeds is the assumption that human beings have knowledge of good and evil, and are granted by God the free will to comport themselves either in accord with His will, or not. Soulless individuals are, apparently, not actually human beings, as is currently described in both Scripture, and legal definitions.

    Curiously, willful killing of such an individual may not be defined as murder either, as such a being does not meet the definition of a living human being as described in Genesis 2:7.

    Such 'entities', (I am speculating here), may also not be of any use to Satan, as they have no Soul for him to 'win'.

    Do you seriously contend that God's powers are limited in some way?

    Child, this is an adult forum. What church does your daddy take you to?

    started a topic Does God's power reach beyond the Earth?

    Does God's power reach beyond the Earth?

    This is a question that has been bothering me ever since I saw commercials on the television for NatGeo space week (yes, I watch regular TV and I am perfectly able to seperate what's right and wrong in God's eyes).

    Does God's Power reach beyond our planet? What if we were to colonize the moon in x years? I suppose that will happen eventually, seeing as men are already planning vacation trips (!) to the moon for the ultra-rich!

    I think we should leave the moon as it is, but that aside... What if someone dies on the moon? What will happen to their Soul?

    This is an honest question! I haven't been able to find anything in the Bible, probably because Its writers never gave traveling to the moon much thought...
