Main IntroductionThe purpose of this Web site* is to unveil the nature of man as a being composed of three parts and to explain how vital each of these three parts is to the fulfillment of Gods purpose. We describe this man as the tripartite man. Throughout history, seeking believers have discovered in their study of the Bible that man is indeed a trichotomous being created with three partsspirit, soul, and body in order to enable him to contact and live within the spiritual, psychological and physical realms, respectively. An understanding of these three parts and of their particular functions is therefore essential in any attempt to explain either our human experience or our Christian experience. Furthermore, though all three parts of man were damaged by the fall of man, God has come in with His salvation in life to restore their proper function and to saturate them with His life. Thus, recovered mankind in his tripartite being may fulfill the lofty purpose of God to build up the Body of Christ.
