This is the last part of the series we have been dealing with. It has been worth the time and the learning has been helpful. So many scriptural insights that I have gained as a result of this. Thank you very much for the opportunity.
Cloning still won't produce great men of history or great men that we have today that God in His infinite power made in a natural state. Everything God made was original and there can't be anything that can measure up to that standard of genuineness and quality.
Solomon was a man of extraordinary wisdom just as Samson was a man of extraordinary strength. Cloning won't produce men of great faith and history as Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, David, Paul, Peter and so on.
Everything we have now is as a result of the things He made. He can make use of anyone to accomplish His intended purpose but still won't override our wills and rights to a decision. He made all things and they were good. In Him, everything exists.
Genesis 1:31 (NIV)
God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the sixth day.
John 1:3 (NIV)
Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.
So to answer the lingering question above. Whoever understands the word 'Soul' would understand the deepness and uniqueness of it and know that no other man can produce it or give it but God.
Genesis 2:7 (KJV)
And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
A man was formed from the dust of the ground and it was the breath of God in that formed specie that made man become a living soul. Every living thing has a soul. There is nothing that God made that isn't with a soul and the Bible confirmed this below:
Revelation 16:3 (KJV)
And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as the blood of a dead man: and every living soul died in the sea.
This is to buttress the truth that everything that God gave life to is with a soul and the scriptural reference below confirms that too.
Job 12:10 (KJV)
In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind.
The creator of the world and all there is in it also mentions that He has a soul. The soul is the entirety of our being - the life that is inherent in us. Have you come across the phrase that says you cannot give what you don't have? God has a soul and He can give it with the breath of life He has breathed into us.
Hebrews 10:38 (KJV)
Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.
The body is just our connection to the outside world but the Spirit in us is what truly matters. That is why the body decays after death but the spirit leaves the body.
James 2:26 (KJV)
For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
From the standpoint of the Bible is where this question has been tackled and for a believer, it is important for us to know this. What is the standpoint of a cloned person before God? There is no soul in it and if it dies, it is still a scientific experiment. Even identical twins have a different spirit, and that's the same with Siamese twins too.
Acts 17:25 (NIV)
And he is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything. Rather, he himself gives everyone life and breath and everything else.
God's standard is true and it is sure. Our soul comes from God because He is the giver of life.
Isaiah 42:5 (NIV)
This is what God the Lord says— the Creator of the heavens, who stretches them out, who spreads out the earth with all that springs from it, who gives breath to its people, and life to those who walk on it:
