Soul (psuche) and spirit (pneuma) are very often used as synonyms for the part of man which is created in God’s image; the inner man; the part of man which is invisible and eternal. However, the word soul is also used to refer to the vital force which animates the bodies of men and other living creatures; “the breath of life,” “living creatures.” Time Gen. 1:1 Death1 Heb. 9:27 Hades Lk. 16:19-31 (Greek; Acts 2:27) Heb. 9:27 Acts 17:30-31 Matt. 25:31-46 Matt. 7:21-23 J U D G M E N T Eccl. 12:13-14 2 Cor. 5:10-11a Rom. 14:10-12 Phil. 2:5-11 Jude 6; 14-15 Rev. 20:12-15 World Acts 17:24; Jn. 1:3; Rom. 1:20 1 Jn. 2:2 Heaven Rom. 1:16-17 Mk. 16:15-16; 2 Thess. 2:14 Lk. 8:11-15; Jas. 1:21 “enter” FAITHFUL, Heb. 10:39 Paradise Kingdom of Christ Jn. 3:3-5; Acts 2:38, 41, 47; Gal. 3:26-27; Col. 1:13; 2 Cor. 5:17; 2 Pet. 1:3-11 INFANTS, Matt. 18:3; Ezek. 18:20 Abraham’s Bosom Lk. 16:22-23; Acts 2:22-36 (esp. 27, 31); Lk. 23:43 Matt. 16:18 Matt. 25:21, 31-46 Josh. 24:15 Resurrection Eternity UNFAITHFUL, Heb. 10:38-39 Power of Darkness Col. 1:13; Lk. 11:18 Acts 26:18; Rom. 6:16 The world 1 Jn. 2:15-17 All Humans2 Ezek. 18:20 1 Jn. 3:4 Rom. 3:23 Great Gulf Torment, Anguish, Flame Lk. 16:23, 28; Jude 6 2 Pet. 2:4, 9 Resurrection ALIEN SINNERS, 2 Thess. 1:7-9 2 Thess. 1:7-9 “depart” Tartarus 2 Pet. 2:4; Jude 6 Gehenna Lust-Sin-Death Jas. 1:13-15 Hell (gehenna) Sheol (Hebrew; Psa. 16:10) “Beneath these clouds and beneath these trees, Lies the body of Solomon Peas.
