A Spirit in the Form of a Soul within the Mind that Controls the Flesh
According to the Gospels, this world and the human beings are made of material or flesh and the spirit. Even a man is made of the flesh or the physical body and the mind consisting of the internal soul, the intelligence, emotion, sensation, etc.
However, this whole material universe was originally generated from non-material energy called the vacuum energy as a result of the quantum physics effect. So, it can be inferred that this material universe was generated from the spirit energy. Therefore, it is no wonder that work of the human mind is based on the spirit energy.
Some scientists think that the human world is made of the world of the mind, the physical world, and the Platonic world, so that the human mind can assume the presence of ideal concepts while living in the complicated and concrete world. Indeed, it is a kind of mystery that men can think of the God who is complete and perfect.
According to those who have near-death-experiences, the spirit world is more realistic that this material world. What they saw in the spirit world in the sate of near-death was clearer and more vivid than phenomena in this world. Even in the spirit world, there is no restriction of time and space. It can be thought that it supports the supremacy of the spirit world over the material world.
The human body is started to be built from a single cell called a fertile ovum. Eventually, a human body consists of scores of trillion human cells. However, each cell is made of molecules, atoms, and elementary particles where the quantum physics effect works. So it seems natural that some scientists focus on the quantum physics effect in their study on consciousness or work of the mind.
In this context, it should be noted that Christ Jesus made it clear that the spirit world, spirit entities, the holy spirits, and the God, who is also Spirit, are above the human world or the world of flesh.
It is thought that a man's spirit is put inside its body in the form of a soul to make its mind work. But when he dies, the soul is released from the body and mind to become a spirit so that it can enter into the spirt world that is closer to the God than the material world. Therefore, spiritual entities living in the spirit world must have purer features than human beings in the material world. And the ideal concepts must be realized in the spirit world.
Especially, holy spirits must have special power and ability, since they directly come from the God. On the other hand, material entities or men as flesh cannot easily understand reality, conditions, and states in the spirit world. They are apt to purchase material interest like men have material desires. Therefore, Christ Jesus blamed men for their misunderstanding of or nonconformity to holy teachings.
Anyway, everyone can understand that the God is not a material entity. And, Christ Jesus said that the God is Spirit. We have to admit that the God is at the most distant extension of our mind which includes a spirit in the form of a soul within the mind that controls the flesh.

Romans 8, King James Version
8 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.
