Tripartite Man
Since the field of Biological Psychology presents a strong evolutionist view of man, it is very important that you
are also exposed to a biblical understanding of the nature of man. Therefore, this first forum will focus on the
differences between what secular science says and what the Bible says about the nature of man.
For this week’s discussion, please read the article on the Tripartite Man at this link
(https://bible.org/seriespage/2-man-trinity-spirit-soul-body) and then answer the following question:
