Re: How many Spirits can a person have in them?

aquila, thanks for sharing your thoughts. let me share how i concluded that heart and spirit are synonymous.

god is spirit. god is love. love is emotion. emotion is heart. so i concluded that heart is spirit. not sure if you follow that reasoning, but i struggled with heart being soul or spirit.

when i read that the hg is poured into our hearts. i thought our makeup as being that of the tabernacle where body soul and spirit correspond to outer court, inner court and holy of holies. if hg is poured into our hearts, i thought that heart corresponds to holy of holies, ie our spirit.

those are the 2 reasons i thought heart corresponds to spirit, but it may very well correspond to soul, i am not concrete on the matter.

i still think that our mind is distinct from our emotion. the only way to explain that in your view is to say there are 2 parts to the soul and that our spirits are a third part. how would we feel or distinguish our spirits within us?

just by self examining our own makeup, i can only distinguish thought and emotion, so i link them to soul and spirit. the hg may be one with my spirit but i cannot discern that, i only feel the hg when i commune with the person of jesus christ. just some extra thoughts. that verse in 1 cor is great for mystical believers. i'm reading a book on deification.
