Biblical proscription of "One soul, one mind, one body?" Never heard of this, and I'm pretty well versed in the Bible. Can you give me chapter and verse on that? A search for "one soul" turns up only these:
"And levy a tribute unto the LORD of the men of war which went out to battle: one soul of five hundred, both of the persons, and of the beeves, and of the asses, and of the sheep:" (Numbers 31:28)
"And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common." (Acts 4:32) Which is referring to a whole group being "one soul."
A search for "one mind" turns up lots of stuff, but it's all of the same sort, talking about groups of individuals who were metaphorically of one mind. And "one body" turns up the various metaphors about the body of Christ being the church of Christ.
Where does it say the one soul, one mind, one body thing?
