Most of what you read in Christianity though is interesting and useful information, nothing compares to the dividing of your spirit, soul and body. Everything points back to the proper ordering of your spirit, soul and body. In fact, much of the Word of God will talk about proper conduct, but that only sets the stage for what is the key element God is after, that in order to really be able to maintain proper conduct, first the spirit must be quickened and the soul distinctly divided from the spirit and renewed.
The reason we come to the cross of Christ is so that God can separate our spirit from our soul. By forgiving us of our sins, we can come before God and not guilt ridden. By dying on the cross with Christ our soul life is placed back where it belongs not exalted, so the voice of the spirit can be heard and a spirit of rapture can be attained through the resurrection life afforded to us by Christ in His resurrection.
The confusion caused by mixing the spirit with the soul, even the soul and body, is the cause of the troubles we face in not living right. For example, if you have headaches, it is because you have not only confused your spirit's functions with your soulical abilities, but the hurt you feel in your soul has been confused and fused with the pain in your body. No longer does your very being realize the difference, but through the dividing of your soul and body, will you be able to be saved from headaches and confusion.
Many other afflictions can be relieved by the same methodology. But in order to do so, one must know the laws of the spirit to understand what to follow that is spirit and not soul and body. God wants you to walk after the spirit's intuition and always heed the conscience in your inner man by following whatever intuition conveys through communion with God.
There may be some logic you are certain of and you know you must do a certain something and in a particular way, but then all of a sudden upon you comes this suggestion in your spirit, this unspoken idea that tells you not to do that certain something or to do it another way. You don't know why, but you know it is right. At that point you must do that thing, otherwise, you are not walking after your spirit and again, giving ground to your soul's power. By following your inner registration, your spirit is exercised and strengthened to hear it in the future even more distinctly and frequently.
