Scripture outlines a concept that eternal life is a gift given exclusively to those who are born again. This concept has been overtaken by Greek philosophies that man has an immortal soul that is encased in these dirt vessels, this concept made its way into the church in the first few centuries following the apostles and has cemented itself among verses out of context. In this episode we take a look at the idea that we are not immortal by default as well as pick apart some of the bad theology that is built upon this non-biblical foundation.
"I charge you before God (who makes all things alive) and in the sight of Christ Jesus (who witnessed the good confession to Pontius Pilate), that you keep the commandment without spot and without blame until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ. For He in His own time will reveal who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone has immortality, dwelling in light which cannot be approached, whom no one of men have seen, nor can see; to whom be honor and power everlasting. Amen." 1 Timothy 6:13-16
