ChristSkyd 0 #1 April 12, 2004 I like to apply the model developed by Charles R. Solomon in my counseling work. It goes something like this: Man is composed of 3 parts, the body, the soul, and the spirit. The body relates to environment. The soul relates to others. And, the spirit relates to God. The body is physiological and is World-conscious. The soul is psychological and is Self-conscious. The spirit is, well, spiritual and is God-conscious. The soul functions as the mind, emotions, and will. Spirit functions as intuition, conscience, and communion. The spirit is the essence of life, the "elan vital." The question is, how do we unite or communicate in the spiritual realm. Or, who is at the center of the human construct. Is is God? Is it the person? How do you know?

wallygator 0 #2 April 12, 2004 blind faith,and the reasurrance that Christ died for us to save our souls. why do we need scientific evaluation to prove things. i believe and to me i don't need scientific validation for my faith leads the way and guides the concious.. it is unfourtunate that most people need validation in front of them before the acceptance of something so unexplainable. unification of the body and mind and spirit will come to those who are ready and willing. this is part of what i believe. Jah guide and protect! -------------------------------------------------- who Jah bless Let no man curse. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
