Spirit and soul
What is the difference between a spirit and a soul?
While there are some who believe that human beings consist of three distinct parts—body, soul and spirit—the Bible most often describes people as consisting of two parts: body and soul/spirit. The Bible most often uses “soul” and “spirit” interchangeably.
Overall, the Bible uses “soul” in relationship to the body, while it uses “spirit” in a person’s relationship to God.
