You are a living SOUL the breath of life that's sustaining your heart is the SPIRIT. Genesis 2:7
So at death all living organisms return to the ground out of which our bodies were formed {Genesis 3:19} but the energy sustaining our breath returns to the one who gave it GOD! Ecclesiastes 3:19-20; 12:7

However there are other forms of life that doesn't have physical bodies they are known as "angels" they are also living beings: SPIRIT BEINGS! Job 38:7

According to God( Genesis 2 vs 7) and Jesus Christ( John 3 vs 5 - 8) it is only those who are of God that have a spirit of their own. Man was never created with a spirit of his own from his beginning. undecided

So how did they create man in god image? There are different verses in the Bible talking about man being spiritual beings living in a fleshy body.

Even dogs have spirit, that’s why they are spirited.

In Islam Spirit = Soul. In most cases there's No difference.

Souls and spirits don't exist.
No evidence that they do

So how is a dog alive if it has no spirit or soul?

I'm not discussing a derivative "Spirited".

A dog is alive because it has a Soul/Spirit.

Every humans and animals have a soul or spirit.

Spirited can be a "verb" or "Adjective". You will have to define yours?

“Have a soul or spirit?” You said soul=spirit

Either cases. Is there anyone that you won’t need to have a spirit? And it’s an adverb.

Who Is the impulse? Who is controlling the impulse?
the one who is master of himself is also the one who is weaker, and the one who is weaker is also the one who masters. After all, the same person is referred to in all these descriptions.

impulses are unreflective urge and desire to act, usually controlled by excitatory neurotransmitters in the brain that sends impulses to the muscles.

Controlling your impulse is the ability to train the brain to handle suurge surge in excitatory neurotransmitters, just like you train your brain to retain memories with some specific activities.

Please I'm still lost as to how spirits and souls are involved.

Where do those urge and desires come from?
Re: What Is The Difference Between Spirit And Soul by FatherOfJesus: 12:22pm On Apr 23, 2022

from your brain via neurotransmissions controlled by your genetic makeups

So are you saying your Brain is different from you?
The Brain that brings those urges and impulses is different from you that is controlling it?

Exactly what controlled your hand to go touch a hot kettle, it is surely not a working brain that will do that maybe some other thing did?

But it seem to me that you don't know that it's your brain that controls every single damn thing in your body, including the ability for you to move your hand and touch a hot plate.

Without the brain sending impulse inform of neurotransmissions to muscles of your hand, you cannot move them to touch the hot plate. This explains why people with stroke cannot move certain parts of their bodies, the part of the Brain that sends impulse to the part is non-functional.

Do you understand it now?
Why are you trying to insert a spirit into the equation?
