I'm not aware that "divine spark" is a theological term of art; if it isn't, then the article should probably be deleted. Garamond Lethet c 02:43, 30 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

What if reincarnation is real.

and the divine spark is the thing the holy spirit - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sophia_(Gnosticism) gives to souls. one soul at the time. since the fall.

and every soul with the divine spark can do the same. Onemistaketomany (talk) 09:28, 23 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

It is a term in Gnosticism. However, I think the article is incorrect in saying that every person has a divine spark. In Gnosticism, only the elect have a divine spark within them; most people do not. Philgoetz (talk) 04:50, 15 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

This concept is common in many religions outside of Christianity, particular in the religions' mystical traditions. It is a primary topic in Jewish Kabbalah, for example. An interesting article for reference can be found here: https://louisjacobs.org/articles/the-doctrine-of-the-divine-spark-in-man-in-jewish-sources/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:14A:C101:3C2F:5F1:EAA4:42A4:C7A0 (talk) 20:31, 13 June 2018 (UTC)Reply
