Something that has been VERY helpful for me is understanding the difference between soul & spirit.
When you receive Yeshua, your SPIRIT is restored to “pre-Eden” state - fully restored & redeemed. Our “new man/new wine skin.”
But, our soul (psuché/phágō) is our “freewill” part: emotions, thoughts, will, choices, etc. THAT is the part where scripture talks about “sanctification” which is a PROCESS of surrender & inviting HolySpirit to heal, cleanse & restore. Our “old man/old wine skin.”
Emotional healing is the sanctification process of repentance, forgiving ourselves & others, learning new patterns of behavior & choices, learning to submit our flesh & freewill choices to HolySpirit, etc.
Understanding that our spirit is fully restored & walks freely “in the cool (Ruach) of the day” as Adam & Eve did before the fall, and our spirit & HolySpirit are partnering together to “flush out” all the rot & debris the enemy has been loading us up with lies & woundedness - flushing from Spirit-side, innermost being, from the “backend” of how the enemy has dumped stuff in from our flesh/Earth experience… like flushing out a septic tank
Your salvation was never at risk and still isn’t… now we are dealing with cleanup & debris from enemy efforts to derail us & whatever others, & we have unwittingly, contributed so our spirit is in unencumbered ruling our soul (psuché/phágō) & flesh.
Hope that makes sense. I’m on my lunch break & tried to it quickly…
