In a biblical context, personality encompasses the attributes, traits, and behaviors that define a person as a unique creation of God. The Bible provides insights into the nature of human personality, emphasizing the spiritual, moral, and relational aspects that reflect the image of God.<br><br><b>Biblical Foundation:</b> <br>The concept of personality is rooted in the creation narrative. <a href="/genesis/1-27.htm">Genesis 1:27</a> states, "So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them." This foundational verse highlights that human beings are created with a unique personality that mirrors certain aspects of God's character, such as rationality, morality, and relationality.<br><br><b>Attributes of Personality in Scripture:</b> <br>1. <b>Rationality and Intellect:</b> <br> Humans are endowed with the ability to think, reason, and make decisions. This intellectual capacity is a reflection of God's wisdom. <a href="/proverbs/2-6.htm">Proverbs 2:6</a> states, "For the LORD gives wisdom; from His mouth come knowledge and understanding."<br><br>2. <b>Emotions and Affections:</b> <br> The Bible acknowledges the emotional aspect of personality. Jesus Himself displayed a range of emotions, such as compassion (<a href="/matthew/9-36.htm">Matthew 9:36</a>), anger (<a href="/mark/3-5.htm">Mark 3:5</a>), and sorrow (<a href="/john/11-35.htm">John 11:35</a>). These emotions are part of the human experience and are to be expressed in ways that honor God.<br><br>3. <b>Moral and Ethical Nature:</b> <br> Humans possess a moral conscience that discerns right from wrong. <a href="/romans/2-15.htm">Romans 2:15</a> speaks of the law written on the hearts of people, "Their consciences also bearing witness, and their thoughts either accusing or defending them."<br><br>4. <b>Relational Capacity:</b> <br> Personality is inherently relational, reflecting the triune nature of God. Humans are designed for relationships with God and others. The Great Commandment in <a href="/matthew/22-37.htm">Matthew 22:37-39</a> underscores this: "‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’"<br><br><b>Transformation of Personality:</b> <br>The Bible teaches that personality is not static but can be transformed through a relationship with Christ. <a href="/2_corinthians/5-17.htm">2 Corinthians 5:17</a> declares, "Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come!" This transformation involves the renewal of the mind (<a href="/romans/12-2.htm">Romans 12:2</a>) and the development of the fruit of the Spirit (<a href="/galatians/5-22.htm">Galatians 5:22-23</a>), which includes love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.<br><br><b>Diversity of Personalities in Scripture:</b> <br>The Bible presents a wide array of personalities, each uniquely used by God for His purposes. Moses, known for his humility (<a href="/numbers/12-3.htm">Numbers 12:3</a>), contrasts with Peter, who was impulsive and bold (<a href="/matthew/14-28.htm">Matthew 14:28-29</a>). Despite their differences, both were instrumental in God's redemptive plan, illustrating that God values and uses diverse personalities for His glory.<br><br><b>Personality and Spiritual Gifts:</b> <br>The New Testament teaches that believers are endowed with spiritual gifts that complement their personalities and enable them to serve the body of Christ effectively. <a href="/1_corinthians/12-4.htm">1 Corinthians 12:4-7</a> states, "There are different gifts, but the same Spirit. There are different ministries, but the same Lord. There are different ways of working, but the same God works all things in all men. Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good."<br><br><b>Conclusion:</b> <br>While the Bible does not provide a systematic theology of personality, it offers profound insights into the nature and purpose of human personality. Created in the image of God, individuals are called to reflect His character, grow in Christlikeness, and use their unique personalities to serve and glorify Him.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.

"Person" is also frequently supplied as the substantive implied in various adjectives, etc., e.g. profane, perjured, vile.<br><br>In the Apocrypha we have prosopon translated "person" (Judith 7:15, the Revised Version (British and American) "face"; Ecclesiasticus 10:5, etc.); the "accepting of persons" is condemned (The Wisdom of Solomon 6:7; Ecclesiasticus 4:22, 27; 7:06; 20:22, the Revised Version (British and American) "by a foolish countenance"; 35:13:00; 42:01:00; "With him (God) is no respect of persons, Ecclesiasticus 35:12).<br><br>The Revised Version (British and American) has "soul" for "person" (<a href="/numbers/5-6.htm">Numbers 5:6</a>), "face" (<a href="/jeremiah/52-25.htm">Jeremiah 52:25</a>), "man" (<a href="/matthew/27-24.htm">Matthew 27:24</a>); "reprobate" for "vile person" (<a href="/psalms/15-4.htm">Psalm 15:4</a>), the American Standard Revised Version, the English Revised Version margin "fool" (<a href="/isaiah/32-5.htm">Isaiah 32:5, 6</a>); the American Standard Revised Version "men of falsehood" for "vain persons" (<a href="/psalms/26-4.htm">Psalm 26:4</a>); for "a wicked person," the Revised Version (British and American) has "an evil thing" (<a href="/psalms/101-4.htm">Psalm 101:4</a>); "back to thee in his own person" (auton, different text) for "again thou therefore receive him" (<a href="/philemon/1-12.htm">Philemon 1:12</a>); "take away life" for "respect any person" (<a href="/2_samuel/14-14.htm">2 Samuel 14:14</a>); "with seven others" for "the eighth person" (<a href="/2_peter/2-5.htm">2 Peter 2:5</a>); "false swearers" for "perjured persons" (<a href="/1_timothy/1-10.htm">1 Timothy 1:10</a>); "seven thousand persons" for "of men seven thousand" (<a href="/revelation/11-13.htm">Revelation 11:13</a>).<br><br>Personality is that which constitutes and characterizes a person. The word "person" (Latin, persona) is derived from the mask through which an actor spoke his part (persona). "From being applied to the mask, it came next to be applied to the actor, then to the character acted, then to any assumed character, then to anyone having any character or station"; lastly, it came to mean an individual, a feeling, thinking and acting being. For full personality there must be self-consciousness, with the capability of free thought and action-self-determination-hence, we speak of personal character, personal action, etc. A person is thus a responsible being, while an animal is not. Personality is distinctive of man. The personality is the unit of the entire rational being, perhaps most clearly represented by "the will"; it is that which is deepest in man, belonging, of course, not to the realm of space or the region of the visible, but existing as a spiritual reality in time, with a destiny beyond it. It is the substance (hupostasis) of the being, that which underlies all its manifestations; hence, the rendering "the express image of his person" in <a href="/hebrews/1-3.htm">Hebrews 1:3</a> the King James Version. Hupostasis was employed by the early Greek Fathers to express what the Latins intended by persona; afterward prosopon was introduced.<br><br>Recent psychology has brought into prominence elements in the subconscious realm, the relation of which to the personality is obscure. There seems to be more in each individual than is normally expressed in the personal consciousness and action. The real, responsible personality, however, is something which is always being formed. The phenomenon of double personality is pathological, as truly the result of brain disease as is insanity.<br><br>In the Bible man is throughout regarded as personal, although it was only gradually that the full importance of the individual as distinct from the nation was realized. The use of prosopon for "person" indicates also a more external conception of personality than the modern. With the Hebrews the nephesh was the seat of personality, e.g. "Thou wilt not leave my soul (nephesh) to Sheol" (<a href="/psalms/16-10.htm">Psalm 16:10</a>); "Thou hast brought up my soul from Sheol" (<a href="/psalms/30-3.htm">Psalm 30:3</a>). God is also always regarded as personal (who has created man in His own image), and although the representations seem often anthropomorphic they are not really such. The divine personality could only be conceived after the analogy of the human, as far as it could be definitely conceived at all; but God was regarded as transcending, not only the whole of Nature, but all that, is human, e.g. "God is not a man, that he should lie" (<a href="/numbers/23-19.htm">Numbers 23:19</a> <a href="/1_samuel/15-29.htm">1 Samuel 15:29</a>); "Canst thou by searching find out God?" (<a href="/job/11-7.htm">Job 11:7</a> <a href="/isaiah/40-28.htm">Isaiah 40:28</a>; compare <a href="/ecclesiastes/3-11.htm">Ecclesiastes 3:11</a>; <a href="/ecclesiastes/8-17.htm">Ecclesiastes 8:17</a>, etc.). In the New Testament the personality of God is, on the warrant of Jesus Himself, conceived after the analogy of human fatherhood, yet as transcending all our human conceptions: "How much more?" (<a href="/matthew/7-11.htm">Matthew 7:11</a>); "Who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counselor?" (<a href="/romans/11-34.htm">Romans 11:34</a>). Man is body, soul and spirit, but God in Himself is Spirit, infinite, perfect, ethical Spirit (<a href="/matthew/5-48.htm">Matthew 5:48</a> <a href="/john/4-24.htm">John 4:24</a>). He is forever more than all that is created, "For of him, and through him, and unto him, are all things" (<a href="/romans/11-36.htm">Romans 11:36</a>). The human personality, being spiritual, survives bodily dissolution and in Christ becomes clothed again with a spiritual body (<a href="/philippians/3-21.htm">Philippians 3:21</a> <a href="/1_corinthians/15-44.htm">1 Corinthians 15:44</a>).<br><br>W.
