Origen Quotes About Soul

Quotes about: Soul

• Every soul... comes into the world strengthened by the victories or weakened by the defeats of its' previous life. Its' place in this world as a vessel appointed to honor or dishonor, is determined by its' previous merits or demerits. Its' work in this world determines its' place in the world which is to follow this.

• Every soul that is born into flesh is soiled by the filth of wickedness and sin. . . .

• It can be shown that an incorporeal and reasonable being has life in itself independently of the body... then it is beyond a doubt bodies are only of secondary importance and arise from time to time to meet the varying conditions of reasonable creatures. Those who require bodies are clothed with them, and contrariwise, when fallen souls have lifted themselves up to better things their bodies are once more annihilated. They are ever vanishing and ever reappearing.

  Origen

• The soul has neither beginning nor end [They] come into this world strengthened by the victories or weakened by the defeats of their previous lives
