What is a Soul?
Right in the very first book of the Bible, Genesis, we are told that the soul is not something you have, it is something you are. We read of the creation of Adam, the first human being: “The man came to be a living soul.” (Genesis 2:7) The Hebrew word used here for soul, ne'phesh, occurs well over 700 times in the Hebrew Scriptures, never once conveying the idea of a separate, ethereal, spiritual part of man. On the contrary, the soul is tangible, concrete, physical.

Look up the following cited texts in your own copy of the Bible, for the Hebrew word ne'phesh is found in each of them. They clearly show that the soul can face risk, danger, and even be kidnapped (Deuteronomy 24:7; Judges 9:17; 1 Samuel 19:11); touch things (Job 6:7); be locked up in irons (Psalm 105:18); crave to eat, be afflicted by fasting, and faint from hunger and thirst; and suffer from a wasting disease or even insomnia as a result of grief. (Deuteronomy 12:20; Psalm 35:13; 69:10;) In other words, because your soul is you, your very self, your soul can experience anything you can experience.

Does that mean, then, that the soul can actually die? Yes. Far from being immortal, human souls are spoken of in the Hebrew Scriptures as being “cut off,” or executed, for wrongdoing, being struck fatally, murdered, destroyed, and torn to pieces. (Exodus 31:14; Deuteronomy 19:6; 22:26; Psalm 7:2) “The soul that is sinning, it itself will die,” says Ezekiel 18:4. Clearly, death is the common end of human souls, since all of us sin. (Psalm 51:5) The first man, Adam, was told that the penalty for sin was death, not transfer to the spirit realm and immortality. (Genesis 2:17) And when he sinned, the sentence was pronounced: “For dust you are and to dust you will return.” (Genesis 3:19) When Adam and Eve died, they simply became what the Bible often refers to as ‘dead souls’ or ‘deceased souls.’

The Bible mentions Body, Mind and Spirit. The approach "frame" is used, it would even be comprehend as "Soul, Mind and Spirit". This is due to the fact of precisely what you point out. "Body", as usually understood is only a fabric shell. "Soul" is the being that's included into that shell. Our our bodies, adding our brains, depend on electromagnetic signs. Soul, Mind and Spirit are 3 elements of who we're; the 3 elements that exist during our lifetime, even supposing our our bodies do difference or age. Soul = the secular aspect that's emotional, feels connections with others and will experience simply being alive. Focused in this global's joys. Mind = the logical, calculating aspect folks that causes matters out. According to many traditions, the Mind is among the Soul and Spirit. Spirit = the religious aspect folks (dishonest via utilizing the equal phrase to outline itself, I realize) that ties again to our supply. For greater than one million/two the sector, this implies the aspect of you that ties again to God/Allah. I like the best way the Matrix symbolizes those matters. Zion (crimson or blue, I do not recollect) is the Soul. The Matrix (inexperienced) is the Mind. The Machine City (golden) is the Spirit. Note that the Matrix is among the opposite 2. Note that even though Neo has powers inside the Matrix, his powers derive from the Source. Note that Seraph is golden within the Tea House Fight Scene. At the top of the 3rd film, Neo eventually unearths a option to deliver the 3 in combination so they are able to reside in peace. When Soul, Mind and Spirit are in concord, then a being is at peace.

For some reason, that sounds a little confusing. I mean, I always thought that our spirits were the same as our soul and the Holy Spirit can come to us if we are one with God, that is we have given ourselves to Him, and believe in Him, and so on. When you die, the spirit or soul, leaves the body, and goes where we go after death which is determined by God. I look at it as a turtle, the outside shell is our body, but the turtle inside the shell is our soul, which leaves the body when we die.

why praytell do you ask effectively the same question twice in 5 minutes?

like I said in the previous thread, Soul = Driver. Body = Car.

"Spirit" = matter and energy that make up the form and energy propelling/animating/ect both body and soul.

>>"Sorry there is no such thing as a soul. While we're at it, there are no ghosts, past lives, afterlives, or imaginary friends. "<<
that is like a blind person saying there is no such thing as color. in fact, there is, the fact that you cannot perceive it does not change its existance.

sometimes the word "Soul" and "Spirit" are used almost interchangably.
which really just confounding the whole thing....

The Bible says the soul is the Blood and dies with the body. When you sell your blood, you are selling a part of your soul. Whenever there is a bombing in Israel, they chip up every fragment of blood, even if it requires tearing up streets.
