Soul and Body

Soul and Body

May 18 to May 24 – When Soul is understood as God, we begin to see man differently — not as a material body, but as a spiritual idea, sustained by Soul.

What sustains our soul? Where does our soul reside? The answer to both questions is God.

“therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.”

I Corinthians 6:20

“Man is not a material habitation for Soul; he is himself spiritual.”

Mary Baker Eddy, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, p. 477:6–7
