What is the difference between your soul and spirit?

Dear Reader,
Hello. I am a servant of Jehovah God. Before I begin my message, I
would like to greet whosoever reads this warmly. I respect the fact
that people have the God given freewill to believe whatever they
want to. Kindly put, I believe Jehovah is the Almighty and Most
High God because of scriptures like (Exodus 6:3, Psalm 83:18,

Isaiah 12:2, and Isaiah 26:4). I write to encourage Bible reading
and to make Jehovah's name known.

There are many beliefs about the soul. Like for instance,
it lives on after a person dies and goes to either Heaven or Hell.
As a human with the God given right to believe whatever I want to,
I myself believe that there is a difference between the Soul and
the Spirit. The Bible says at Genesis 2:7, "And the Lord God formed
man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the
breath of life; and man became a living soul." (QUOATED GENESIS 2:7)
From reading this scripture, I myself have believed that the body
itself is the soul. I do not believe that it is immortal, and goes
on an afterlife to Heaven or Hell.

I myself, believe that the spirit is the breath of life
that God blew into the nostrils. In other words, the life force that
is keeping us alive today. Once we die, the spirit returns back to God
and we return back to the dust from which we came. (Ecclesiastes 3:19-22)
(Ecclesiastes 12:7). Then, what happens to us next depends on God and
Jesus Christ. Jesus is Jehovah's annoited King. Jehovah gave him
power to ressurect and judge the dead. It is up to Jesus to decide
who gets ressurected, who goes to Heaven, and who gets destroyed.

NEW TESTAMENT
(JOHN 5: 28-30, REVELATION 20: 12-15)
