The Bible does not clearly define that there is a difference between a person s soul and spirit. It seems that the terms are used synonymously at times, as in Luke 1:46-47. In other instances,  soul is used to describe man s basic worldly functions, and  spirit is used when talking about his spiritual relationship with God. This is shown in 1 Corinthians 2:14-3:4. </P> <P> It seems that man is likely made up of three distinct parts: body, soul, and spirit. The body is made up of flesh and can be touched. The soul forms the basic thought patterns and directs one s functions. The spirit is in direct relationship with the Lord. </P> </span> <hr size="1" noshade="true"></hr> <address onclick="link()">Content Courtesy of <u class="link">RaptureReady.com</u></address></body> </html>
