Spirit To Spirit
subtitled: The Christian World View
Our souls are blessed
with life eternal
We are God-breathed
made in His image.
Our souls never die
our spirits are born dead
we are born sinners
rebellious, unrighteous,
separated from God.
Our spirits can choose
to reject or accept God
as outlined in the scripture
When we confess Christ,
as Almighty God,
we become "believers."
His Word becomes our compass.
The death, burial and resurrection
of Jesus Christ grants us
forgiveness for sin and
grants us grace in our failure to follow
God's righteous path for mankind.
When we profess Christ as our Savior,
our spirits are reborn.
God's Holy Spirit
comes to live within us
teaching us how He wants us to live.
The spirit and the soul
exist in our body
a physical body, visible and mortal.
Our body will likely die (
unless Jesus returns first).
Remember, our souls never die.
Now when the body dies, what happens
to that eternal soul that has no connection
with God, the soul that has a dead spirit?
Where does the unbeliever's soul go
when the body (with a dead spirit) dies?
