BODY, SOUL & SPIRIT: HOW WILL THEY END?

Paul, the Apostle, said in 1 Thessalonians 5:23 that human being is divided by three elements: body, soul and spirit. What do you think about each of them? Where it will return after we die? Let’s see what Scripture says about it:

BODY:

‘That’s how it will be when our bodies are raised to life. These bodies will die, but the bodies that are raised will live for ever’ (1 Corinthians 15:42, CEV)

‘… when you end their life, they die and rot.’ (Psalm 104:29, CEV)

SPIRIT:

‘So our bodies return to the earth, and the life-giving breath returns to God.’ (Ecclesiastes 12:7, CEV)

‘… His body will be destroyed, but his spirit will be saved when the Lord Jesus returns.’ (1 Corinthians 5:5, CEV)

SOUL:

‘… Instead, you should fear God who can destroy both your body and your soul in hell.’ (Matthew 10:28, CEV)

‘… the souls of everyone who had been killed for speaking God’s message and talking about their faith.’ (Revelation 6:9, CEV)

In summary, after we die our earthly body will be rotten, and we will dress in a heavenly body. Our spirit then goes back to God, the owner of spirit of all creatures. Our soul goes to a temporary place before the judgment day (read Luke 16:19-31).

May God bless us all!
