Spirit (energy) + body (dust) = Soul (person)
You are a living soul in this equation...

Soul (person) – spirit (energy) = dust
The soul/person is dead or unconscious in this equation

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. Genesis 2:7

All the while my breath is in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils; Job 27:3

The Spirit of God has made me; the breath of the Almighty gives me life. Job 33:4

My understanding from the Bible, the spirit is the energy that sustain the soul

Spirit is an exact image of your body in God's form. But Soul is what gives you life. If the soul leaves a body then the body is lifeless.

Soul is omni-dimensional energy quanta, a fractal of consciousness vehicle which spirit requires as an overlay between the physical reality and the larger consciousness system to access the diverse planes of existence without the dense adverse effect of the magnetoelectric field of the planes of experiences in the desired reality that spirit seeks to experience. It is a derivative of Sol, our local sun. The soul is micro sol (sun) vibrating and electrifying the avatar, animating it for spiritual experiences.

Spirit is Energy Intelligence at its core, a fractal of Omni-Intelligence, a Unit of Consciousness from the larger consciousness systems, a unit which guides the Avatar and is the avatar at its core in any chosen dimension for experiences and guidance on scripts of fates and destinies.

While the spirit is the eternally living unit of the consciousness system, the soul is a conscious animating vehicle, a fractal of Sol, our local sun, that transports spirit to access any desired reality at multi-dimensional levels even while on this reality. Without Soul, spirit could be ionized.

For the scientific lay mind;

Spirit is a base level of the conscious unit of awareness from a larger consciousness system that hosts this computed reality.

Soul is the base vehicular unit of transport of spirit to any Reality it seeks to experience any simulated reality.

From The Islamical And Quranical Angle, Your Spirit belongs to God while Your Soul Belongs To You aftermath... Maywhile, Your body belongs to this world after death

Both soul and body belongs to Allah,

Spirit is like inspiration that drive soul spirit is a (thought)of man either good or bad, spirit can't exist without soul but soul can exist without spirit, spirit is like inspiration and it leaves once it accomplished it aim, spirit is a mood of soul, your thinking is your spirit, and some spirit came from God through angels while some spirit came from devil, your soul is real you and only your soul can accept any spirit and your soul can reject any spirit, and in Quran allah will only say I created a soul, and sometimes he will say to him all souls shall return back to, so your soul belongs to Allah alone, spirit is like inspiration either good or bad.

The spirit and the soul are always at loggerhead. The spirit is the spiritual part of our heart. It resides in our heart. It leads us to do things that are spiritual; things like fasting, praying, etc.
But the soul is a physical thing. It consists of the mind, brain, our thinking or thought, our emotions. It's also the part that deals with how we understand and know things. The soul is not our body. It is the part empowering our flesh. It always fighting with the spirit for supremacy.
If you are spiritually minded, i.e doing the things of the spirit, then you are led by the spirit. But if you are pleasing the body or the flesh in the detriment of the spirit, then you are led by the soul. Both the spirit and the soul are entities embody in our body. Mind you, the spirit don't die, it return back to God. It is our emotions, thinking, thought, knowledge, etc that make up the mind which in turn makes up our soul, that actually die.
In summary, the soul die but the spirit do not. Happy sunday

In my view the soul is the entity it self. It's that void everything empty itself into Including the spirit and the body. The body is much distant from it, but the spirit is closer. The spirit mediate between the body and the soul..without the spirit, there will be no awareness of the soul.

The soul feeds directly from.God and informs the spirit. Which in turn informs the body what to do. What satisfy it and also what satisfy God.

If a man soul is pure, his body his spirit will be closer to purity and finally his body. This mean he obeys the empress instruction of his make. From inward out.

We're as if it dark. It feed more of outward in.

The soul is material, the spirit is immaterial. However, the human soul is a 'spirited-soul'. Hence, it's immortal; it transcends death.

Spirit, soul and Body.
Body: the container (flesh)
Soul: this is life. God the owner of all souls. You are alive is because of ur soul is alive.
Spirit: the is the force or coordinator. It is the spirit that lead and direct you. Ur action and inaction depend on the Spirit that possess you. It is either the spirit of God or Demon Spirit . Spirit of God will lead u to do good while demon spirit lead u to do bad.

So allow the Spirit of God to dwell in you.

The spirit is the breath of God that lives in us (the connection between mortals and the immortal beings) when there is a message from the spirit realm, our spirit interpret the message to our soul which consist of the sense organs (including our mind) it is what this mind comprehend that our physical awareness makes choices from which leads to our immediate actions. So the spirit is our connection with the spirit being while the soul is our mind that interpret the message from the spirit man, that is why when the spirit is gone the senses are no longer active, therefore it is interpreted that the man is dead.

There are three parts that make up human. The body,the soul and the spirit.
Body is the part that house both soul and spirit. Spirit can be mistaken for soul. Soul is a canal man. Soul operates through mind. It can also be referred to as human spirit which must have a strong will to help us resist evil thoughts and action. The spirit is the one that communicate to the soul,it places before the soul the knowledge of good and the bad,and the leave the will to choose with soul.
For example;
The body demands for alcohol
The spirit communicate the consequences of taking alcohol to the soul.
The soul decides to take alcohol or not.
The soul and spirit work together but they operate differently. The soul must have strong Will to keep the spirit alive.

Wonder no more. Cos there is a difference between the soul and spirit according to the bible "man" is made up of two parts, the body and the spirit. The body is the physical you, the part you can see and touch but the spirit is the part that you can not see. The combination of the body and spirit is what the bible calls the SOUL.
A look at the bible book of Genesis explains this:
Genesis 2:7 (KJV)
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.
From here you can see that God made the body and breathed His spirit in it and the combination became a soul, i.e the complete man. The soul(person) can die but the spirit does not die but returns to God at death according to the book Ezekiel the soul/person that sins shall die Ezekiel 18:20. Any where the bible uses soul it means the complete man or person so there should confusion about the two. God bless you

According to Islamic view, spirit is like inspiration, spirit can come from God through angel, spirit can also come from devil, let us said spirit can be only found in thinking of a man, and spirit can't exist without soul.

But soul is living in body, and both body can represent soul, and in Quran Allah didn't said he will reword spirit, instead he said all soul shall receive reward of it deed, so spirit is not something that really exist on it own.

But the fact is spirit is like inspiration or thinking while soul is what that carry out work of spirit.

Here are the Differences:

Your Body: That which u can see and touch

Your Soul: Define the mental aspect of u. That's why it's sometimes called ur Mind.

The soul/mind consist of four parts:

1. Senses
2. Intelligence
3. Emotion
4. Will

Your Spirit: Your inner being. You can't see it - coz it operates at far extreme vibrations than can be processed by human senses. Sadly, I can't explain it simpler than that...

Nevertheless, those that've had OBE where their inner beings pop out of their body can relate to that.

Many surgical patients do report OBE but Doctors pass them off as just hallucinations.

That's because, Medicine like any other science can only comprehend empirical occurrences.

hmmmmm. OK, let us use the analogy of a computer; a working computer is made up of hardware and software. it's powered by electric charge stored in the battery.
the electric power is the spirit,
the hardware is the body, and
the soft ware is the mind .
together it's called a computer system(the soul). thus the soul is the whole/entire being.

iTearHerToto:
A Spirit is a soul while a soul is a spirit

There's no much of a difference just that a spirit can harbor in a soul but a soul can't harbor in a spirit

Let's say for example in a sentence... "99% of Afonjas are possessed with an evil spirit hence resulting to their extreme depravity" that is an afonja soul is in possession of a spirit which is the spirit harboring in a soul. And the spirit is causing them to inflict harm to the environs and even their family members

You can also put it the other way round like All Afonjas are filled with the holy spirit but that's an impossible tense but it isn't what we are here to discuss

Furthermore.... There's more but I hope you get something from the few points I made

Off to church

Did I just say church




Pukes angry


Ur name alone shows that u are really posses with that evil spirit.
