Soul vs. Spirit

If God were soul, His communication us would be a direct link of Divine Soul to human soul:  Heart to heart, Feeling to feeling, Emotion to emotion.

That being so we would feel Him.

If He were Physical, His communication with us would be by means of our physical bodies. He would appear in human form, not for a fixed period of time as with Jesus, but for all time.

So we would see him, feel him and touch him, just as His disciples did in the past.

Seeing that God is Spirit, His communication with us is by the exclusive means of the spiritual realm: the Spirit of God to the human spirit, from the Supreme’s Intelligence and Wisdom to human intelligence. But this is only possible through faith—faith in His Word.

With this kind of faith, exercised and practiced in obedience to the Word, closeness with God becomes a reality.

I admit that this is difficult to explain and even harder to understand. Only people who’ve come face-to-face with the Holy Spirit can understand it.

Because of this, we are going to have another Fast of Daniel starting August 13th, when the thirsty will come to the Fountain and have the right to enjoy the kind of faith that produces eternal benefits.

Meditate on this teaching and discover the secret of a faith that works:

“But what do you think? A man had two sons, and he came to the first and said, ‘Son, go, work today in my vineyard.’ He answered and said, ‘I will not,’ but afterward he regretted it and went. Then he came to the second and said likewise. And he answered and said, ‘I go, sir,’ but he did not go.Which of the two did the will of his father?”

They said to Him, “The first.”  Matthew 21:28-31
