The Human Spirit Is Like Marrow (Hebrews 4:12)

May 19, 2021 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - major ian thomas, spirit, tripartite
Based on verses such as 1 Thess 5:23, I believe that the human person is “tripartite”—that is, we are spirit, soul, and body. Hebrews 4:12 is another verse that supports the tripartite view. It also suggests an important clue about the role of the spirit in the human person: For the word of God is

Major Ian Thomas on Commitment Confusion

April 15, 2020 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - Abraham, Commitment, major ian thomas

Act or Attitude?

December 1, 2017 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - attitude, carnal christian, Eternal Security, major ian thomas, torchbearers
I’ve been reading through the works of Major Ian Thomas. He was the founder of Torchbearers International and the stunning Capernwray Bible School (look at that scenery!).
