The natural world in which humanity inhabits is visible to physical eyes. Tangible objects fill the scenes of this earthly realm. The world and its components are familiar and open to humanity, and as a result, most feel comfortable with their natural environment and what they can physically see. Yet man is a dual being, as he is a spiritual as well as an earthly being. Man has a soul and that soul will live eternally. Of course, man's soul belongs to the spiritual side of humanity where the spiritual world plays a vital role in the decisions he makes, the influences he is subject to, and where man's soul will ultimately spend eternity. The invisible spiritual world is filled with spirits who help each soul choose their final eternal destination. This is the world that most are not familiar with or comfortable considering or paying much attention to. However, if a soul wants to successfully reach heaven, then it is vitally important to consider the spiritual side of man and what it entails. A spirit is an immaterial, intelligent being. A spirit can also be described as the disposition of the mind or intellect. People are the result of the spirit to which they lend themselves. In one instance Jesus told his disciples that they were not aware of the spirit influencing them. There are many different spirits that influence people. The Bible names the spirit of wisdom and understanding. There are spirits of fear, jealousy, fornication, and countless others. For a man to enter Heaven he must be born of a particular spirit, the Holy Spirit (John 3:5). The Spirit of God will bring the right influences into the heart of the truly converted soul. David asked God to renew a righteous spirit in him (Psalm...... middle of paper...... expose oneself brazenly in front of a human being most of the time, but rather one must discern it. A true saint of God can distinguish what belongs to the spirit of God and what is in opposition to the spirit of God. The Holy Spirit will give the necessary discernment to the heart that is open and close to God. Such a heart will have the power to overcome every wrong spirit that exists in the way of the redeemed. Spirits represent themselves through people, and people can use many different ways to manifest the spirit that influences them. May God help anyone who is entitled to true Salvation to be able to discern with the. help of the Holy Spirit the spirits, or influences, that oppose the truth. The Holy Spirit is the only spirit that will carry the soul of man safely to heaven. Works Cited The English Standard Version Bible New York: Oxford University Press , 2009. Print.
