Well Brother, I'll be brave and give it a go
(BTW, thankyou for your encouragement over the years, you have been such a blessing).
Now, this is how it was taught to me in TBDI (only very briefly, during a course on romans).
At conception, a child has a spirit and a body. The spirit is alive. The body is alive. When the child is born and takes it's first breath, the soul is created in the child, and that child becomes a living soul.
Dr Lince didn't mention anything else at that time, although he may cover it more in a different course, so that's about all I know of the position.
I don't know enough about the position to say either way. Without a life, the body and the spirit are alive at conception. As for the soul, I don't know.
Gen 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
Job 33:4 The Spirit of God hath made me, and the breath of the Almighty hath given me life.
