Bible Question: I have heard it said many times by Christians that the 'soul' is the 'mind, will, and emotions' ... if this is so, then why does the Bible say (Deut. 6:5, Matt. 22:37) 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' - clearly differentiating between the soul and the mind? |
Bible Answer: The soul is your inner consciousness and all that it is made up of. This would include intellect, emotions, etc. Remove all of the physical and what do you have left? The mental. This is your soul. |
