God created man in it's original form, and at such man have the original order to operate. And this original order of operations includes:
- the Spirit
- the soul
- the body
1Thessolonians 5:32 talks about all the operations in existence.
May the God of peace himself make you entirely pure and devoted to God; and may your spirit and soul and body be kept strong and blameless until that day when our Lord Jesus Christ comes back again. (Living Bible)
the spirit role:
God is a spirit and he communicates with man via the spirit, The spirit interfaces directly with God. In John 4:24 it shows that God is a spirit and the only way man can reach out to God is through his spirit.
God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
Romans 8:16 proves how God communicate with man through His spirit.
The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
the soul role:
The soul is a sit of feeling and desire and needs satisfaction from the spirit to be filled up. Psalms 107:9
For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness
It is only the spirit that is the spirit that communicates with God that can satisfied the longing, feelings and desires of the soul.
the body role:
The body is the material part of man, it houses the soul and the spirit and gives expression to the state of the soul and the spirit. Remember, the spirit receives directly with God's spirit and then the spirit satisfied the needs of the soul and the soul directs the body. It shows that the body cannot function without the soul and the spirit.
Note:
Man consist of both material and immaterial parts, the material is the physical aspect of man that is things we see, feel and touch which is the body and the immaterial is what cannot be seen, feel or touch that is the soul and spirit.
