Definition of Human Being
Are you a 'person', an 'individual', or a 'human being'? These words, at law, define you as being spiritually 'dead.' This is how the world makes its attachment to you.
The terms, 'person', 'individual', 'human being', etc., are not in Christ.
Words like "individual,"
and "human being" do not even appear in Scripture! These are
'created' terms by the natural man (1 Cor
Therefore, when anyone calls himself or herself a 'human being', or a 'humanitarian,' they are saying (according to every definition of these words, and according to the law), "I'm an animal; I'm a monster; I'm not saved; I'm unrepentant; I'm an unregenerate sinner; I'm not converted; I'm wicked, sinful, and dissolute; I'm cruel, depraved, unenlightened; and I reject Christ's divinity and the importance of a belief in God."
"Individuals [Bondman] rely for protection of their
right on God's law, and not upon regulations and proclamations of departments
of government, or officers who have been designated to carry laws into effect ." Baty v.
The Septuagint uses the term "human beings" only one time, and its meaning is identical to the above definitions. Let's look at the last verse of the book of Jonah, where Nineva was full of men who were unrepentant, unregenerate, unconverted, wicked, sinful, dissolute, cruel, depraved, unenlightened, rejected the importance of a belief in God. Or, in other words, "human beings." "and shall not I spare Nineve, the great city, in which dwell more than twelve
myriads of human beings, who do not know their right hand or
their left hand...?" [Jonah The "human beings" of Nineve did not know their right hand from their left because they did not know the Truth and were lost. They did not know God, they were separated from God. However, those human beings were willing to turn from their ways and learn the things of God, so He spared that city from destruction. The term "human being" is also synonymous with the term 'natural man.' "The natural man is a spiritual monster.
His heart is where his feet should be, fixed upon the earth; his heels are
lifted up against heaven , which his heart should be set on. His
face is towards hell; his back towards heaven. He loves what he should
hate, and hates what he should love; joys in what he ought to mourn for, and
mourns for what he ought to rejoice in; glories in his shame, and is ashamed of
his glory; abhors what he should desire, and desires what he should
abhor." [Thomas And the Word confirms: "But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned." [1 Corinthians 2:14,] The above verse witnesses to us that the natural man is spiritually dead. The 'natural man' in Scripture is synonymous with the 'natural person' as defined in man's laws. "Natural Person means human being,
and not an artificial or juristic person." Shawmut Bank, N.A. v. Valley Farms, 610 A. 2d. 652, 654; 222 "Natural Person: Any human being who as such is a legal entity as distinguished from an artificial person, like a corporation, which derives its status as a legal entity from being recognized so in law. Natural Child: The ordinary euphemism for 'bastard' or illegitimate." [Amon v. Moreschi, 296 N.Y. 395, 73 N.E.2d 716." Max Radin, Radin's Law Dictionary (1955), p. 216.] Those that are spiritually dead belong to the
prince of this world because he's dead himself. Satan has dominion over the
natural man, for he is the prince of this world [John
12:31; 14:30; 16:11]; and, as a consequence of
this, he has dominion over those of the world, i.e., human beings, the natural
man – those who receive not the things of the Spirit of God and reject Christ.
Because the bondman in Christ is sanctified from the world, he is separated
from the adversary's dominion over him–sin [John
