{{Style S-Small capitals|Says}} a correspondent of the London Spiritualist, “In my view, the use of the word ‘spirit’ to designate the spirit body is erroneous. In scriptual psychology, and in that of the Greek fathers, the spirit-body is termed the ''soul (psyche anima'', and perhaps ''nephesh''). Justin Martyr says: ’The body is the house of the soul, and the soul is the house of the spirit.’ St. Paul says: ‘I pray God your whole spirit, and soul, and body may be preserved blameless.' That ‘by virtue of the possession of which man is immortal’ should properly, I think, be termed ''spirit (pneuma, sfiritus'', and perhaps, ''ruach'') The question may be merely one of the correct, or conventional, use of terms. In the dichotomy of the Latin fathers, which, until comparatively recently, prevailed in the modern churches, the word soul seems to include both the ''pneuma'' and the ''psyche''; and the proper distinction between spirit and soul has been very generally lost sight of. We talk of seeing ‘spirits’ in the same way as we speak of so many ‘souls’ perishing at sea, or elsewhere. What the clairvoyant medium sees are spirit-bodies, or ''souls''; and what perish at sea are bodies.”
