Does Pre-Believer Have a Spirit?

Many Christians were taught that pre-believers do not has a spirit ... Man's spirit dies when he sins and it results in physical death eventually. This is not so as we know that man is spirit, soul and body. When a man dies, his spirit remains and goes either to heaven if he has accepted Christ's salvation and goes to hell if he hasn't. If pre-believer does not has a spirit, then he just disappears after physical death. This is against Bible's teaching... Heb 9:27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: . There is not need for judgement is he has gone.

Death, is better , or originally, defined as separation. Before Adam sinned, his spirit was connected to God. After he sinned, his spirit was disconnected from God and consequently lost the glory of God's presence and found himself naked.

In Mat 26:41 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. Here are the disciples who were not yet born again by the Holy Spirit. Their spirit is very much alive.

For man as making of spirit, soul and body see the Tripartite Man
