Yes, the Word of God is living and operative. Definitely, but this is the word living and operating in our hearts, and not just some words on the page of a book.
In the LC we were compelled to study more, learn more, be trained more, and do more, yet rarely to love more. Hence, in many instances, there was little dividing of soul and spirit.

I would agree. And it was only when God started showing me how much it was about love, that scripture and His purpose began to open more to me! I had many years of being fed "God Eternal has a Purpose," which in itself was good (but in the context of "If you don't line-up straight, He might have to squash you to get it!"). However, love is the key as to the why and how (and even when I think) He will get us there.
Does that make sense?
