(18) The separation of the spirit and the soul
The spirit is
the image from God. The soul is the emotion from from the parents. These two
can not be combined like water and oil. One will be die. The spirit is died in
the flesh from the parents, and the soul is died in the body from God. So
spirits of all human beings are dead because the soul surrounds the spirit like
a snake. The spirit is trapped in clay. The spirit can not alive unless it is born
again as a spiritual body. We must deny the soul to be born with a spiritual body.
I will crucify me on Jesus'cross because there is a seed of a snake in my mind.
The veil of the temple was divided just as Jesus was died. The spirit and the
soul are separated when we are died with Jesus.
『For
the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword,
piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and
marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. Neither is
there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked
and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do. Seeing then that we
have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of
God, let us hold fast our profession.』(Hebrews 4:
12-14) The Word of God divides soul, spirit, and marrow. The soul is a thought
that comes from the flesh. The spirit revives when the soul is died on the
cross. The soul is an oldself. This is expressed in baptism.
『Knowing
this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be
destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.』(Romans
6: 6) For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out
of Egypt by Moses. But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with
them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness?『And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but
to them that believed not? So we see that they could not enter in because of
unbelief.』 (Hebrews 3: 316-19) The Hebrew people were
the people who stirred God up in the wilderness for 40 years. In church today,
most of the members are like this. The soul, the spirit, and the marrow must be
cleaved before they are born again. It means to deny everything before.
