Does the majority of mankind die in old age about age 70 as Moses said, "Psm.90:10."
Jer.9:9; God is a soul. John 4:24; God is a spirit.
The soul has life by the spirit of God, God owns the spirit in every soul, his spirit is his spirit, it belongs to him, it is the loan of life to each soul. At death the spirit returns to God who gave it. Gen.6:3; Psm.90:10; The decrease in life to man is in old age at age 70 is sure true. The spirit of God can not dwell long in the imperfections man finds himself in.
MAN IS PROMISED SALVATION FROM THE IMPERFECTIONS OF INHERITED SIN.
If from the bible with scriptures rightly divided [ collected ], from each book, as STUDY 2Tim.2:15; says on subjects of life, spirit, death, resurrected soul, souls to salvation,
when study is done, if truth is not seen as life span decrease is seen, [ from king David age 70, 1Ki.10,1; dies to Acts 2:27-31; as 1037 years later ], where is any thing else to learn all this from?

Mankind's life span has been decreasing because of sin. The weakened physical, mental and moral nature of man has contributed a lot to this.
The inherent principle of selfishness leads, (many through ignorance) to self-destructive acts which shorten man's life span even further.
Not everyone can count on death because of the promise of Christ's return. Some will be alive and taken to heaven without seeing death.
1 Corinthians 15:51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
1 Corinthians 15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
As regards to rightly dividing the word of truth - apply this principle to the teaching about death and the soul and you come up with this Bible study...

God set no restrictions on life when He created Adam.
Later when He saw how evil man had become, he changed it to 120 years. Still later he changed it to 70 years.
Why then doesn't everyone die at seventy?
Because God said that he has given man seventy years, those who are wreckless may die sooner and those who follow his laws may die later.
For me, I have less than a year to be seventy.
I am in pretty good health, and expect to live to somewhere in my 80's according to my doctor.
Does this make the seventy that is given by God invalid?
I don't think so, when I was 38 I learned a great lesson.
I had believed in God and Jesus since I was five.
I had never understood that God wanted me to turn my life over to him to run it for me. That just did not make sense. God was the big scorekeeper in the sky.
At the age of 38 I made a vow to God to always let him lead me wherever he wanted me to go and show me what he wanted me to do. I began to take courses through various ministries, went to the Institute of Biblical Studies, and was ordained a minister. For years I have taught the word of God in various centers for homeless, and reformed fellons, and taught and mentored inside prisons.
Having used 31 years of my life serving him, I may be allowed to live to the ripe age that my doctor said I will.
However there is another factor.
In studying the story of Simeon in Luke, I had a inner voice speak to me and say, 'I give you this same promise, you shall not die before you see the Lord return.
Either I will live longer, or He will return sooner, or I was deceived.
I was at a mens conference and sat at a table with several pastors, and related what I had heard to them, and three of them said they had received the same message in the same year that I had received it.
