Both words are representing our character. The difference is, that both words -soul and/or spirit - are used mostly by religious people. But in reality it's meant our character, which is or was lead through many generations through DNA.
The soul is the breath of God in every human and the mind is our consciousness of our perception of existence. To have the holy spirit is to know how to make the difference between what is right and wrong The light and the darkness the right and the wrong the good intuition and the doubt the real and the illusion. It is to sum up to recognize that God has said of truth and of good and to follow him and to abstain from what he has forbidden and recognized as evil. Whoever educates his soul with good and gives him good principles purifies it ; he who inculcates the bad choices corrupt him. The holy spirit feeds on science and the knowledge of what comes from heaven by learning from God through his books and prophets.
85. And they ask you concerning the soul, - Say, "The soul is of the order of my Lord." And we have given you little knowledge. (THE NIGHT TRAVEL)
7. And by the soul and the one who harmoniously fashioned it;
8. And then he inspired his immorality, as well as his piety!
9. Has succeeded, certainly the one who purifies it.
10. And surely he who is corrupting is lost. SOURATE 91 (THE SUN).
To put it simply, the spirit is for the living, and the soul for the dead. We can be witty or simple-minded or just witty, but the day we die, all that beautiful spirit that we loved so much disappears with the body envelope, as say those who have religion. It seems that some spirits return to earth to pull the feet of the living and walk with a sheet on the head, personally I have never seen. The soul on the other hand would be especially useful after the death, although some sells it during their lifetime (Faust, Swann, Robert Johnson, etc ...). Most religions believe that humans have a soul that continues after physical death to go to hell or paradise, or to the land of ancestors, or come back through reincarnation, or part of an "all "cosmic. The mind allows us to be aware of our mortality, and the soul would be the means to escape it. This is in any case the business of many organized religions.
