Where do we get out soul?

[Plecto]

How and where do we get our soul? Is it dessided by god or is god handing it out randomly (not dessiding what kind of soul each person gets)?

We cannot "get" our soul, for we are not us without one. We simply have it.

No this is an old myth, there is nothing to support the idea.

There is only one man who 'simply has it'

[ReluctantProphet]

We cannot "get" our soul, for we are not us without one. We simply have it.

This is fact.

And God does nothing "randomly".

Pure randomness cannot exist. All things have cause and all things have purpose.

The cause related to your soul's creation just like everything else, is determined by what came before it such as to initiate its creation. Some teach that your soul has always existed, but this notion is only true in a certain conceptual sense similar to saying that the concept of a circle has always existed even before there was anyone to imagine it.

But your soul, in a more real sense (not merely in concept) is initiated by a need to fill the gap and the opportunity to do so. Your soul is formed by the shape of the gap.

This gap is a gap in what you might envision as the volume of all life. The grass spreads across the field, it grows into any and every opportune spot. All life makes the attempt to fill all space with itself.

Each life form and type is originated by this effort and takes form based on the available gap and initiating effort. Your feet, if restricted by tight shoes, will fill the available space in the shoes by attempting to grow into a preferred shape. The result is neither the preference nor the exact shape of the empty shoe, but a meeting of the two - the effort and the opportunity.

Thus your specific soul is formed by the effort of life to expand into a limited space - the gap. The preference was that your soul be idealized, perfect life. The gap determines its challenge in accomplishing this.

Life forever tries. You are another attempt.

This is also fact

Like I said, your soul is basically a natural 'earth' energy that needs a gap (or hole) to tune into ones fundamental ying and yong (and possibly yang) so the coming together of the main life forces (spirit - soul - wind - thoughts - light - oil - perfume) can exist in neutral universal harmony within the central brain that pulsates within the crystal at the centre of the universe.

But we have our soules when we are given birth? Because this is the thing I dont get. Either we have gotten our souls from someone or something or the soul has always excisted. Maybe Im not so smart but could anyone try again to explain who everyone has a unique soul?

You have your soul even before you are conceived.

Your soul is individualized by in what manner it attempts life. Life requires a great variety of diversity. Every diverse type of life must come forth so as to ensure that life itself can never stop.

Often the distinction between two souls is very minute. Sometimes their difference is great. There is a nearly infinite variety between.

Try to find two apples that have the exact same shape to the smallest detail. They might be of the same variety and even have the exact same DNA structure, yet will still be different. Life fills the gap and takes its shape. No two gaps are identical even if the lives were.

There is no 'you' before conception for you to have soul, where then would this soul reside ?

Your soul is individualized by in what manner it attempts life.

What decides the manner it which it attempts life ?

Does the souls character or' 'type' decide in which manner it 'attempts' life ?

If so where does this character or type come from ?

Life requires a great variety of diversity.

'Life' is a condition or state and as such has no requirements.

This like saying 'speed' needs variation to allow all the various speeds, nonsense, perhaps it is poetry ?

Every diverse type of life must come forth so as to ensure that life itself can never stop.

An unsubstantiated notion clearly without support.

Often the distinction between two souls is very minute. Sometimes their difference is great. There is a nearly infinite variety between.

Another unsubstantiated notion clearly without support.

What information / knowledge / logic / reason do you hold to make this statement ?

Life fills the gap and takes its shape.

What does this mean in non-mystical mumbo-jumbo talk ?

What is this 'Life' that acts on its own in filling this gap ?

Where or what is this 'gap'

No two gaps are identical even if the lives were.

Do you make this stuff up as you amble along ?

Dear Plecto, we are body, soul, and mind, and at birth we are also given some of God`s Spirit. The body and mind you know, the soul is the inner man. As the body grows, so does the soul, and while we are young, our bodies grow, and we do what our bodies like. As we grow older and wiser, our souls come into their own, our inner man, or woman, realises that we can do things, or not, which also have consequences. We may find that to be loud and bossy, most times get us what we want, but those around us do not like it much. We also find that to be kind and pleasing, will get us most things, and at the same time, those around us like us, and are nice to us. Our soul takes over now, it will either follow the kind and gentle way, which our minds tell us are better, or it will follow our body`s wishes and desires, like self comes first, and why bother about pleasing anybody. Our souls grow, as our bodies do, and when our time on Earth is ended, we leave our bodies behind, and our souls go on living. Those souls who have decided to follow Jesus, will go back to God, and those who have chosen their own, ill-advised promptings not to follow Jesus back to God, will end up in outer darkness, without God`s Love or Light. I say this humbly and kindly, Plecto, and send greetings. Emmy, sister in Christ.

I think we are all created spiritually and physcially alive. The spiritual part is the soul.
