Immortality Only in Christ Conditional immortality Premise: Immortality of the soul is only through

Immortality Only in Christ Conditional immortality Premise: Immortality of the soul is only through Jesus. Those who are not in Christ are judged according to their deeds and eventually annihilated. This theory allows for the Justice of God yet still upholds His mercy. The insistence of eternal conscious suffering is founded upon the Platonic idea of the incorruptibleness of the soul, justifying it scripturally from the Genesis account. “God breathed into Adam and he became a living soul” concluding, because God is immortal, the soul is immortal. This is true but only if one is “in” Christ Jesus.

The first Adam’s choice brought us death. The last Adam’s choice brought us life.

The first Adam’s choice brought us death. The last Adam’s choice brought us life. The first Adam was not obedient. The last Adam was obedient. Romans 6(9 -11) 9 knowing that Christ, having been raised from the dead, is never to die again; death no longer is master over Him. 10 For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life(Zao) that He lives, (Zao) He lives to(Zao) God. 11 Even so consider yourselves to be dead to sin, but alive(Zao)to God in Christ Jesus.

Those found in the book of Life(Zoe) Judgments 1 Cor 3 (11 -14)11 For no man can lay a foundation other than the one which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. 12 Now if any man builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw, 13 each man’s work will become evident; for the day will show it because it is to be revealed with fire, and the fire itself will test the quality of each man’s work. 14 If any man’s work which he has built on it remains, he will receive a reward. 15 If any man’s work is burned up, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire. 2 Cor. 5(10)For we must all appear before the judgment seat (bema) of Christ, so that each one may be recompensed for his deeds in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad
