  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Hello, and welcome! :D

I would like to know the difference for yuxh, Psukikos and psuche.
Why are they three words and only transliterated as one please? :confused:

I am a beginner, but here goes.

yuxh and psuche are the same word, ψυχή which can be translated "soul" or "life", like the inner life we have. (zoe is also translated as life, but means life in general)

Psukikos (ψυχικός #5591) means life, but adds the meaning of the natural life as opposed to the spiritual life.

I was told Zoe Life is Christs Life, isn't this correct?

Thanks, but I still have a question..

Are they really the same word?
Is psuche just the pronounciation of yuxh?
Or are they two different words used in the Greek?

Oh, and how can we be of the same yuxh?

Thanks :)

Are you getting zoe = Christ's Life from John 1:4 "in Him life was", zoe generally just means life.

It's difficult to tell if it's really the actual same word due to the english letters.

If y=ps=ψ (psi), and x=ch=χ (chi), and h refers to eta (ή),
then yuxh is the same word as psuche, just transliterated differently.

ψυχή (yuxh or psyche) has the additional meaning of "the seat of the will, desires and passions" (Liddell and Scott).

If two people share the same passion, then they could be said to be of one ψυχή, as we would say "He and I share a heart for the homeless".
