Does the Soul have Control over our Decissions

Decisions are not made by races, cultures, or nations unless they are first made by individuals. The most destructive decision that an individual can make is to give away his or her decision-making authority.” Ken Carey “The Third Millennium”

Taking what this quote says about the destructiveness of giving away your decision - making authority where does this apply with the Soul on that level.

Do we as the host for the Soul have the control over decisions made or does our Soul have some role there on a solo level to over ride what we decide ?

Our lives are directed by the soul and its intention more as we surrender our personal minds to it.

Free Will

in the book Revelations of 2012, The prophet of Life writes that everyone is born with an encapsulated "True Soul" and a protective layer we know as a spirit. The protective player absorbs the various things that occur to it through life experiences and reacts according to the personality that you develop. The encapsulated soul merely acts as a conscience and also records everything you do in life. When you die it helps conduct you back to God.

We are not hosts for a soul; we are souls. When we make decisions our souls are making decisions.

i imagine (or speculate) that my soul is a manifestation of an eternal vibrational constant. i don't know if soul has a choice as to how it manifests as selfhood.

The very first basic level, instruction, realization, in true spirituality is,
We are each non-physical, immortal, spiritual beings and are not the mortal, physical, human body we operate, the mind, or anything else. You are you and you are the one doing the looking, evaluating, concluding, deciding, imagining, creating, loving, feeling joy,etc...You don't have a soul or spirit, because that soul or spirit is you. Someone saying "my soul" is a sure sign, that they have not yet achieved or realized this first basic level of spirituality.

LOL and anyOne making such an arrogant judgement based on such a minor point has not yet realized that they aren't in a position to make such judgements concerning the spirtual state of others.

Even Jesus a few thousand years ago knew that this was true for each individual, but I would not expect someone like yourself to understand...
There are those who know and those who only assume that they know. lol

John 3:6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh (mortal, physical, human body) and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.(you as a non-physical, immortal, Spiritual Being).

John 14:20 At that day ye shall know that I [am] in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you. (a spiritual type collective)

Psalm 90:10The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away. (as non-physical, immortal, spiritual beings, we each Depart the Deceased mortal, physical, human body.)

You are the Soul, therefore you are making your own decisions

um okay. i don't suppose it occurred to you that my employing the term "my soul" was to indicate that i was speaking only for myself and wasn't making assumption about the souls of others.

Bible verse. yeah. sure.
