A Person's Spiritual Composition

Many people believe that a person is merely comprised of a soul. This is far from correct. A person is actually composed from a large array of spirits.

For every quality and concept that exists, there exists families of spirits which govern and regulate it. E.g. there are spirits called mind and love, which provide the means by which men think and love. Without these spirits, men cannot think and love. That is why there are boundaries to everything. Men think only a limited amount of thoughts, and love only a limited amount of ways, and all these things are regulated.

The following scripture indicates that mind is in fact a spirit.

Lost Scrolls of the Essene Brotherhood

"Gracious Love, Creator of Love! Reveal the best words Through thy divine mind living within us."

There is however not just one mind which occupies man. Those who have faith are given a divine mind as is indicated in the above scripture. However, there also exists a carnal or sinful mind occupying those who don't have faith - as well as those who do have faith.

The Aquarian Age Gospel of Jesus, the Christ of the Piscean Age

Chapter 126

8 Hear me, you men of Israel! Defilement is a creature of the heart. The carnal mind lays hold of thought, and makes a monstrous bride; this bride is sin; sin is a creature of the mind.

Therefore those who have faith each has a divine mind, along with a carnal mind which they contend with. Those who don't have faith, have only a carnal mind.

The following scriptures underscore the fact that spirits govern everything, and are responsible for the behavior seen in people.

Isaiah 11
1 A shoot will come up from the stump of Jesse;
       from his roots a Branch will bear fruit.
2 The Spirit of the LORD will rest on him—
       the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding,
       the Spirit of counsel and of power,
       the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD -

Isaiah 61

3 and provide for those who grieve in Zion— to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the LORD for the display of his splendor.

Jeremiah 51

1 This is what the LORD says: "See, I will stir up the spirit of a destroyer against Babylon and the people of Leb Kamai.

Hosea 4

12 of my people. They consult a wooden idol and are answered by a stick of wood. A spirit of prostitution leads them astray; they are unfaithful to their God.

John 14

16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever
17 the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you.

2 Corinthians 4

13 It is written: "I believed; therefore I have spoken." With that same spirit of faith we also believe and therefore speak,

2 Timothy 1

7 For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline.

Therefore every behavior and quality that is seen in man, is made possible by a corresponding spirit in man, who facilitates this behavior / quality seen in him. In as much as men laugh, cry, think, hate, love, and do a myriad of other things, there exists within their spiritual composition, many, many spirits who facilitate these things taking place. Further, those who have faith, have a myriad of godly spirits (which make up what the Bible calls the inner man) who facilitate godly behavior. Therefore a man is much more than his soul. A man is actually a platform for a myriad of spirits, who make possible his various capabilities.
