Hello everybody,

So received my first question today, and have few ways I can answer it. But I would love some ideas from you as well.

The question is,

Which is the most important aspects of man? Is it soul or spirit? Is it the mind? Is it the body and the soul? Is it the community? Is it the body? Why or why not?

Thank you and God bless!

    Ed Romero and Ed Chait like this.
  • Ed Romero Two things come to mind.

    Romans 12:1 says to present our bodies as living sacrifices. In this case, bodies is talking about our whole selves, body and spirit.

    Paul elsewhere talks about how physical training is of some benefit, but spiritual is more important. So, God wants all of us, but our hearts and minds are most important

  • Ed Chait In light of eternity, I think the most important aspect is our soul. People who aren’t saved are afraid of death so they tend to focus on physical health (body) so as to live as long as possible. Believers, on the other hand, are to be focused on the eternal.

    (1 Timothy 4:8) for while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.
