IMMORTALITY OF THE SOUL: The Birth of the Doctrine
BOOK DESCRIPTION
For centuries, the idea that humans possess an immortal soul has shaped religious doctrine, philosophical thought, and cultural traditions. But where did this belief originate, and does it align with the Bible? Immortality of the Soul: The Birth of the Doctrine traces the historical development of this concept, revealing how it emerged from Babylonian, Egyptian, Persian, and Greek philosophies and was later adopted by various religious movements—including mainstream Christianity.
Through careful historical and biblical analysis, this book dismantles the notion that the soul is inherently immortal. Instead, it demonstrates that the Bible teaches humans are souls, not that they have souls. It exposes how the idea of an undying, separate soul is foreign to Scripture and how it replaced the biblical teaching of resurrection as the true hope for life after death.
While the Bible rejects the idea of an immortal soul, it does speak of immortality—but only as a special gift granted to a limited number, distinct from eternal life, which is offered to the faithful. Immortality belongs solely to God and is conferred only upon those chosen for a specific role in His divine purpose. Understanding this distinction is crucial to grasping the biblical truth about humanity’s hope.
Did God create humans with an immortal essence, or is eternal life something entirely different? With thorough research and compelling evidence, Immortality of the Soul: The Birth of the Doctrine challenges long-held assumptions and calls readers back to a biblical understanding of what happens after death
