What is the difference between the soul and the spirit?

[Gray_Joy]

For me,in simple terms,the soul is the power of God molding,holding,together the created self,body.
While the spirit is what is referred to as the silver cord,in Ecclesiastes. That is the communication portal,link,by which holy spirit information and influences the person.

By the way, that comes from the Bible. Your theology is mistaken.

Lamentations 3:31 esv
For the Lord will not cast off forever,

2 Samuel 14:14 esv
We must all die; we are like water spilled on the ground, which cannot be gathered up again. But God will not take away life, and he devises means so that the banished one will not remain an outcast.

IMO:

o "If anyone's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the Lake of Fire" (Revelation 20:15)

o "Not cast off forever" (Lamentations 3:31) indicates restored communion with God for those *not* in the Lake of Fire.

o This final judgment, after the millennial reign of Jesus, indicates destruction of those who *are* in the Lake of fire (Revelation 20:11-15).

It's in the book.

Check out Revelation 20:11-14.

Ephesians 1:10 says that Jesus came to unite all things in himself. You apparently believe that Jesus failed

"As many as *received him*, to *them* he gave the gift of eternal life." (John 3:16).

The offer is there. Jesus paid the penalty, God the Father accepted what Jesus did. You snooze, you lose.
