Tripartite man is one of the core teachings in LC. This teaching also had an immense influence on my Christian life. I have no doubt that there is a difference between our spirit and our soul. However, I think that in LC we had some unhealthy tendencies. For example, many their think that the things of the soul are negative and bad. Therefore a big stress on how bad are our opinions and soulish attachments. As a result, the cross was understood mainly as the denial of the soul. We were taught to get out of our mind and get into our spirit. There is much to discuss here.
