Hi all,
This quote from C S Lewis changed my very perspective of Life...
"You do not have a Soul.... You are the Soul.. You have a body"
My perspective and most of our own belief was that we all have a Soul that passes by at the time of our Death.
Now think of this...
God says that we do not die... our earthly body dies and we go to the Creator... So now Lewis is making sense.
We do not have a Soul per se... We are the Soul. We have a body that is just a host, a temple of God, for a temporary camp in this World.
Now the options are very simple.
We either please the temporary residence and loose eternal salvation...
or...
We please the Creator by respecting His greatest Creation, Us, the Soul and please God in whatever we do with the host.
I Corinthians 10: 31 can not be any more clear on what we need to do...
"So then, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you may do, do all for the honor and glory of God."
as the Preacher says in Ecclesiastes 11: 9
"Rejoice, O young man, in your adolescence, and let your heart cheer you in the days of your [full-grown] youth. And walk in the ways of your heart and in the sight of your eyes, but know that for all these things God will bring you into judgment."
Kind regards.
