In popular writing, you will often hear this order: body, soul, spirit. Notice the order in the following passage —
“Now, may the God of peace and harmony set you apart, making you completely holy. And may your entire being—spirit, soul, and body—be kept completely flawless in the appearing of our Lord Jesus, the Anointed One. The one who calls you by name is trustworthy and will thoroughly complete his work in you.”
1 Thessalonians 5:23-24 TPT
Questions:
– how can I support and enable my spirit to lead my soul and my body?
– in what ways do I consistently giving into the demands of my body like, I’m hungry, I’m tired, I don’t want to, waaah?
– what would it mean to see my soul as the integration between my spirit and body, that I am an incarnation, a three part person?
