Glimpses of Grace

Episode 23: What does the Bible say about our Soul?


Listen Later

The soul is the seat of our personality; in the soul, we find our mind, will, and emotions. In this episode, John and Mark discuss how the soul functions mentally and emotionally. They ask the question, "What identity do I live from?" Is it self-life or Christ's life? There is abundant life in the spirit but defeat in self. Doubt is a great example; doubt gains traction in the soul even though we have assurance and security in our spirit. John discusses how rejection and disappointments affect the soul with feelings of inferiority, insecurity, and inadequacy. John also discusses the differences between real and imaginary guilt. The common struggles of worry, doubt, and fear are also addressed. The flesh life brings about many psychological symptoms and problems. Mark teaches us the difference between a reaction and a response. He also states that when we are living selfishly, we tend to blow up or clam up. There are so many ways we try to mentally escape but when Christ is life, He can bring mental health. Listen to the end as Dr. John teaches on depression and anxiety and ends with Matthew 11:28-30. Jesus gives rest to our souls because when we are saved, he redeems our spirits!
