157 - The Soul of Man Overview

The understanding that we are triune: spirit, soul and body, just as God is triune, is seen repeatedly in Scripture. Internally, we are spirit, which is born again, made new by grace, having become partakers of the divine nature. This is surrounded by our soul (mind, will and emotions), which is renewed through a process involving the Word and the Spirit of God, Who indwells us. The outer man is our body, which is what everyone sees. But, our body, unlike our spirit and soul will not enter the Kingdom of Heaven. We'll be given a new body. On this earth, we are to let our righteous born-again Spirit come forth. For this to happen, we must work to put on the mind of Christ by the study of God's Word and the working of the Holy Spirit. Daily, we're to cast down imaginations and every high thing, which tries to exalt itself against the knowledge of God, His love, and His resurrection power. As our mind is renewed with the Word of God, we'll experience peace, which only He can give, plus His power to do His work on earth. We become the light of the world, just as Jesus is the light of the world. This message draws on specific Scriptures to bring out how this can be done in us. How we can stop serving sin, defeat the devil and become servants of righteousness.
