And as a stand-alone, it has always meant to me that the body is mortal, but the human spirit is immortal.

That is a good interpretation of C.S. Lewis' "You don't have a soul. You are a Soul. You have a body."

For me, it establishes which is the owner and which is the slave. The body does not order the soul, the soul orders the body.

Well said, dear sister, and thank you for the kind words. :)
