Soul is Mind, Will, and Emotions

Soul is Mind, Will, and Emotions is a Myth because that is the teaching of the Greek philosopher Plato, a teaching brought into Christianity by Augustine in the fifth century. The Hebrew word Nefesh means Soul, Life, or Breath as does the Greek word Psuchei. The KJV often translates those as Life. Animals have Life and Breath and when the body dies so does the Life of that animal. When a human dies the Life dies, the Soul dies but the Spirit goes to heaven. See Soul in the One New Man Bible Glossary.
