"Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through
the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently" 1 Peter 1:2
The battle between the flesh and the soul will end when we finish our course. Meanwhile, we press toward the higher mark. In my book, Darkness Behind The Veil, I describe the soul as a reservoir, filled with life's joys and sorrows. The soul, which many scholars call "Ego", define who we are and what we have become. Within confounds determined by borders created within, the ego sometimes keeps us imprisoned, not allowing us to freely live and be the true person God created us to be. By barriers - walls within the soul - we block Him out.
Freedom of the soul is a learning process not mandated by the flesh, the world, or its scholars, but by God through His Word. Tabernacle of the Soul is the way to understand and know the soul. It is not by highfalutin, pompous, or pretentious words, but by humble, plain, and simple adumbrate and symbols in the wilderness... So that in this we can truly "love one another with a pure heart fervently"...
Likening the soul to a reservoir filled with joys and sorrows is absolutely right on! Dipping into the deep well of my own soul, I marvel at the life experiences that juxtapose themselves, intertwining around my heartstrings. Your teaching and book, have been an oasis, recovering that putrid reservoir which was once stagnating within me. Praise God, now the fresh, Living Water is freely coursing through it! Thank you for your obedience to God to write this anointed revelation for those who thirst for truth.
