The Bible generally speaks of us as a whole person. It also refers to body, mind and soul as different aspects of a human being which are intricately woven together to make the whole. (It sometimes uses different terms such as strength, heart, and spirit interchangeably - e.g. Deuteronomy 6:5). When the Bible uses the term ‘soul’, it refers to the inner being that will go on existing after an individual’s death (1 Peter 1:8-9). This will be either in the New Creation, having been brought into union with a new heavenly body, or in Hell, to suffer under judgement for eternity (1 Corinthians 15, Revelation 20:4, Matthew 10:28).
