This world suggests an ideal environment for human learning constructed by God for that purpose into discussion about the notion of the soul which means we're here to learn and be prepared.
The belief suggests we're here to get rid of "Bad Karma" and to learn lessons that are necessary so that we can eventually - on our own, make those necessary transitions beyond this world into rebirth.
Given that we're here to continually learn on the journey of life, it seems that the ultimate goal of learning is the perfection of our souls.
Denial of the Soul among pseudo secularists redundantly evidence, for one reason or another, to be strongly immune or closed to it where discount's in militancy compass to be against the power of {God} and his Word are continually degraded down to that of a subservient lessor compasses additionally the unique nihilistic attitude of: There is and will never be, any greater, than the American politico self-centered "Elitist" under protection(s) in boys club of self rule statuses in good, under the table - tithe, standing. WOW!
Once again we find ourselves involved with something that is actually much larger than we are, and therefore cannot be submitted to any single, adequate, or simplistic definition.
That doesn't mean, however, that we can't use an operating definition at the very least to facilitate progress in looking at the equally mysterious subject of learning.
We will topically define the Soul as "a God-created, God -nurtured, unique, developable, immortal human spirit."
Each of these modifiers is crucial, but for the moment let us focus upon three.
It has already been suggested that this world is such an ideal environment for human learning that it has actually been designed for that purpose.
We are saying that we are created by God, and further suggest that we were created to learn by God-nurtured council but also that God, through "GRACE", continues to nurture us throughout our lives.
The other Key word for the moment is "Developable."
There would be no point in God wanting us to learn unless we could learn, unless we were capable of development.
We are evolving creatures, not only as an entire race but as individuals.
As physical beings, we have bodies that stop developing and inevitably decay.
But our "Psychospiritual" can 'Continue' until the moment we die (and, suspected, long, long after-ward).
For this psychospiritual development, faith must frequently use the word "Growth" and growth is inextricably dependent upon learning.
Throughout divine teachings it repeatedly says all have a choice of whether to grow or not grow, whether to learn or not learn.
The coined term "self-actualization" fundamentally believes it can actuate itself and additionally can create itself.
The issue: What man can do is "STEWARD" the flower garden that God has made it possible for us to enjoy.
What this means is that while we cannot create our own souls, we can Steward them well or badly.
In the choice we make to grow, we can become cocreators of ourselves, whereas whenever we resist growth, we were rejecting the role of being cocreator with GOD.
Typically, the hard work of cocreation (or coactualizing) ourselves with God's guidance is an "ONGOING" process of Unfolding, Development, and Blooming.
But the deliberate choice to learn and grow is primarily one that we make or fail to make as adults unlike childhood where most learning is "Passive."
In other words, for the most part those unacceptable redundant dynamics that just happened
and should never of come to pass.
