WHAT IS
THE SOUL?

The soul is the spiritual principle of the human person—the God-given, immaterial source of life that gives life to the body and enables us to know, choose, love and respond to one another and, most importantly, to God.

THE SOUL
IN SCRIPTURE

The biblical words for soul help reveal the richness of our inner life. The Hebrew נֶפֶשׁ (nephesh) can refer to one’s life, living being, or inner self and includes ideas connected with appetite, passion and emotion. In Genesis, after God breathes the breath of life into man, he becomes a living nephesh—a living being. The Greek ψυχή (psychē) similarly can mean life or soul and points to the inner person, including our feelings, affections and desires.

At Soul Fitness Ministries, Inc., we use these biblical concepts as a framework for examining our appetites, passions, emotions, feelings, affections and desires—the inner movements of the person that can be formed, strengthened and directed toward what is right, just, holy, good and true, and, therefore toward God who created the human soul and desires each of us to live in intimate communion with Him, now and for eternity.
