Some say "spiritual" life begins at conception. However, twins dispute this. Shortly after fertilization, the embryo splits to create more than one life. Now each twin is going to have their own soul. Do you believe the soul splits equally to each individual? Or do you believe we do not receive our soul at conception?

The soul is an integral part of a human being. Body and soul come in to existence at the same moment, the moment an individual human being is defined, and that is the moment of conception. The fact that an early embryo splits after conception is hardly likely to be a problem for God. All we need to know is that each developing human being has an individual soul long before the mother knows those human beings exist.

If it is god's intention for a couple to have twins then it is reasonable to assume he would provide two souls. There is no biblical reference explaining exactly the moment when the human person is infused with a soul. Such questions have been asked over and over again especially in the case of abortion which is wrong no matter when the soul is introduced. If the souls are provided after the split, it does not mean the embryo is not alive, the embryo is a gift from god as is the soul and therefore is sacred.

What makes you think that because 2 physical bodies separate, that has anything to do with the soul. The soul is beyond anyhting we understand. Life begins at conception. Forget the spiritual end of it, the embryo represents life.

We received a soul at conception. For twins, God knew the embryo would split and two humans would be born.

I am not Christian, but I will answer. I believe in reincarnation, and that the soul is eternal. The soul is energy, and the energy changes increases, decreases, lightens, darkens in accordance with our actions. I believe the soul and the body merge at conception, and as for twins...they each have their own soul...just because the initial amount of energy is split...their souls are not less in quantity or significance...but they are closely connected.

Each baby born receives their soul upon conception, whether the embryo splits in multiples or not. God planned the birth of that child or children, and I believe He gave them their souls upon conception.

Conception is my belief and the twins have individual souls at conception of each.(at time they split)

Christian who have self assurance in evolution would desire to have skipped the e book of Genesis and specific did not understand something of the Bible. There are some who're specialists interior the historic content textile and ethical coaching of the Bible besides the incontrovertible fact that that's God who shows the non secular aspects. Pray, Pray and Pray lower back for know-how. Please! As for the soul, all human beings are born with souls not merely like the animals.

well, it was gods choice to create twins so he probably threw in an extra soul when the embryo split
he knows what he is doing
