Claim. The spirit self grows through the same three ordered stages that govern all creation: formation, growth, completion. A spirit in the formation stage is called a form spirit; in growth, a life spirit; in completion, a divine spirit. A divine spirit is one whose spirit-and-flesh have completed the four position foundation centered on God.
Elaboration. Per 6.3.2. The Structure and Functions of the Spirit Self: “The growth of the spirit self toward perfection progresses through the three orderly stages ordained by the Principle of Creation. A spirit in the formation stage of life is called a form spirit; in the growth stage, a life spirit; and in the completion stage, a divine spirit.”
What the divine spirit can do: “A spirit fully matures as a divine spirit when the person’s spirit self and physical self unite through perfect give and take action centered on God and form the four position foundation. A divine spirit can accurately feel and perceive every reality in the spirit world. As these spiritual realities resonate through the body and manifest themselves as physiological phenomena, they can be recognized through the five physical senses.”
The eschatological role of divine spirits: “People of divine spirit, who thus resonate with the spirit world, build the Kingdom of Heaven on earth. When they shed their physical bodies, they will make a smooth transition into the Kingdom of Heaven in the spirit world.”
DP’s three-stage taxonomy is doctrinally distinctive. Most Christian traditions treat the spirit as a single entity that persists or perishes; DP holds that the spirit is a growth with discrete stages, and that the stage at death determines post-mortem existence. This is why DP weights lifetime maturation and why post-mortem spirit elevation through descendants becomes structural (later DP: returning resurrection).
