Said Joseph Leidy, MD, LL D, Professor of Anatomy and Zoology, in the University of Pennsylvania: 'Personal consciousness is observed as a condition of each and every living animal, varying from microscopic forms to man. The condition is observed to cease with death; and I know of no facts of modern science which make it otherwise than difficult to believe in the persistence of that condition, that is, 'the immortality of the personal existence.' Science has learned no more than is expressed in Eccl. 3: 19: 'For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them; as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast.' " Said Lester F. Ward, AM, at the Smithsonian Institution, Washington, DC: 'The consciousness, when scientifically examined, reveals itself as a quality of brain.... It is a universal induction of science that modification of brain is accompanied by modification of consciousness, and that the destruction of brain results in destruction of consciousness. No exception to this law has ever been observed.' Thomas Hill, DD, ex-President of Harvard College, says 'Many facts in the possession of modern science make it difficult to believe in immortality.' Says Alexander G Bell: 'The possibility of thought without a brain whereby to think is opposed to experience, but this persistence of 'personal consciousness' after the death of the body involves this assumption.' Says the distinguished FKCL Buchner: 'Unprejudiced philosophy is compelled to reject the idea of an individual immortality, and of a personal continuance after death.' It is certain that the voice of science is emphatically opposed to the doctrine of the immortality of the personal consciousness".</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-63"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-63">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFMcConnell1901" class="citation cs2">McConnell (1901), <i>The Evolution of Immortality</i>, p.&#160;84, <q>In the first place, there have not been a few, both in ancient and modern times, who have maintained the truth of a 'Conditional Immortality'.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&amp;rft.genre=book&amp;rft.btitle=The+Evolution+of+Immortality&amp;rft.pages=84&amp;rft.date=1901&amp;rft.au=McConnell&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AChristian+mortalism" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-64"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-64">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFStreeter1917" class="citation cs2">Streeter; et&#160;al.

Then those who died in 'peace and quiet' with the lord will find eternal peace (Bedjan 276.15), while sinners will be banished to a darkness far away from God (Bedjan 117f.) Gehenna, the kingdom of the demons (Bedjan 203.4 from bottom), is a place of fire, and on the day of judgment this fire will burst forth from the bodies of the damned (Bedjan 73.4; 118.3–7). Until the resurrection, the dead must wait in Sheol, which the author seems to imagine as a collective grave (Bedjan 366.3 from bottom; 368.5; 369.4). Some passages in the corpus suggest that the dead continue to act, in Sheol, as they have during life (e.g., Bedjan 90.13; 366.10–18). Others declare that action for good or ill is no longer possible after death (e.g., Bedjan 392.4 from bottom), and even envisage Sheol, before the judgment, as a place of fire ruled over by Satan (Bedjan 93.4f.)</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&amp;rft.genre=book&amp;rft.btitle=The+hope+of+the+early+church%3A+a+handbook+of+patristic+eschatology&amp;rft.pages=174-175&amp;rft.date=1991&amp;rft.au=Daley&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AChristian+mortalism" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-FOOTNOTEConstas2001&#91;&#91;Category:Wikipedia_articles_needing_page_number_citations_from_May_2013&#93;&#93;&lt;sup_class=&quot;noprint_Inline-Template_&quot;_style=&quot;white-space:nowrap;&quot;&gt;&amp;#91;&lt;i&gt;&#91;&#91;Wikipedia:Citing_sources&#124;&lt;span_title=&quot;This_citation_requires_a_reference_to_the_specific_page_or_range_of_pages_in_which_the_material_appears.&amp;#32;(May_2013)&quot;&gt;page&amp;nbsp;needed&lt;/span&gt;&#93;&#93;&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#93;&lt;/sup&gt;-95"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-FOOTNOTEConstas2001[[Category:Wikipedia_articles_needing_page_number_citations_from_May_2013]]&lt;sup_class=&quot;noprint_Inline-Template_&quot;_style=&quot;white-space:nowrap;&quot;&gt;&amp;#91;&lt;i&gt;[[Wikipedia:Citing_sources|&lt;span_title=&quot;This_citation_requires_a_reference_to_the_specific_page_or_range_of_pages_in_which_the_material_appears.&amp;#32;(May_2013)&quot;&gt;page&amp;nbsp;needed&lt;/span&gt;]]&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#93;&lt;/sup&gt;_95-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><a href="#CITEREFConstas2001">Constas 2001</a>, p.&#160;<sup class="noprint Inline-Template" style="white-space:nowrap;">&#91;<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citing_sources" title="Wikipedia:Citing sources"><span title="This citation requires a reference to the specific page or range of pages in which the material appears.

For toward night a person who has become exhausted by his daily labor in this life enters into his chamber in peace, as it were, to sleep there; and during this night he enjoys rest and has no knowledge whatever of any evil caused either by fire or by murder. But the soul does not sleep in the same manner. It is awake. It experiences visions and the discourses of the angels and of God. Therefore the sleep in the future life is deeper than it is in this life.

While the Hebrew thought world distinguished soul from body (as material basis of life), there was no question of two separate, independent entities. A person did not have a body but was an animated body, a unit of life manifesting itself in fleshly form—a psychophysical organism (Buttrick, 1962). Although Greek concepts of the soul varied widely according to the particular era and philosophical school, Greek thought often presented a view of the soul as a separate entity from body.

The Bible, from cover to cover, promotes what they call the "Hebrew concept of the whole person." GC Berkouwer writes that the biblical view is always holistic, that in the Bible the soul is never ascribed any special religious significance. Werner Jaeger writes that soul-body dualism is a bizarre idea that has been read into the Bible by misguided church fathers such as Augustine. Rudolf Bultmann writes that Paul uses the word soma (body) to refer to the whole person, the self, so that there is not a soul and body, but rather the body is the whole thing. This interpretation of Pauline anthropology has been a theme in much subsequent Pauline scholarship.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&amp;rft.genre=book&amp;rft.btitle=Care+for+the+soul%3A+exploring+the+intersection+of+psychology+%26+theology&amp;rft.pages=107-108&amp;rft.date=2001&amp;rft.au=McMinn&amp;rft.au=Phillips&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AChristian+mortalism" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-206"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-206">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFMcNamara1997" class="citation cs2">McNamara (1997), <i>Beauty and the Priest: Finding God in the New Age</i>, p.&#160;64, <q>The general consensus is that the Old Testament rejected any natural or innate immortality.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&amp;rft.genre=book&amp;rft.btitle=Beauty+and+the+Priest%3A+Finding+God+in+the+New+Age&amp;rft.pages=64&amp;rft.date=1997&amp;rft.au=McNamara&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AChristian+mortalism" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-Indeed_p._518-207"><span class="mw-cite-backlink">^ <a href="#cite_ref-Indeed_p._518_207-0"><sup><i><b>a</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-Indeed_p._518_207-1"><sup><i><b>b</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-Indeed_p._518_207-2"><sup><i><b>c</b></i></sup></a></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFMyers1987" class="citation cs2">Myers, ed.

A dualism of soul and body is present: 'a perishable body weighs down the soul' (9:15). This perishable body is opposed by an immortal soul (3:1–3). Such dualism might imply that soul is superior to body. In the nt, 'soul' retains its basic Hebrew field of meaning. Soul refers to one’s life: Herod sought Jesus' soul (Matt. 2:20); one might save a soul or take it (Mark 3:4). Death occurs when God 'requires your soul' (Luke 12:20). 'Soul' may refer to the whole person, the self: 'three thousand souls' were converted in Acts 2:41 (see Acts 3:23). Although the Greek idea of an immortal soul different in kind from the mortal body is not evident, 'soul' denotes the existence of a person after death (see Luke 9:25; 12:4; 21:19); yet Greek influence may be found in 1 Peter’s remark about 'the salvation of souls' (1:9).

The word 'being' translates the Hebrew word nep̄eš which, though often translated by the Eng. word 'soul', ought not to be interpreted in the sense suggested by Hellenistic thought (see Platonism; Soul, Origin of). It should rather be understood in its own context within the OT as indicative of men and women as living beings or persons in relationship to God and other people. The lxx translates this Heb. word nep̄eš with the Gk. word psychē, which explains the habit of interpreting this OT concept in the light of Gk. use of psychē. Yet it is surely more appropriate to understand the use of psychē (in both the lxx and the NT) in the light of the OT's use of nep̄eš. According to Gn. 2, any conception of the soul as a separate (and separable) part or division of our being would seem to be invalid. Similarly, the popular debate concerning whether human nature is a bipartite or tripartite being has the appearance of a rather ill-founded and unhelpful irrelevancy. The human person is a 'soul' by virtue of being a 'body' made alive by the 'breath' (or 'Spirit') of God.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&amp;rft.genre=book&amp;rft.btitle=New+Dictionary+of+Theology&amp;rft.pages=28-29&amp;rft.edition=electronic&amp;rft.date=2000&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AChristian+mortalism" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-231"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-231">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFCarrigan2000" class="citation cs2">Carrigan (2000), "Soul", in Freedman; Myers; Beck (eds.), <i>Dictionary of the Bible</i>, Eerdmans, p.&#160;1245, <q>Far from referring simply to one aspect of a person, "soul" refers to the whole person.

The majority have held that immortality also includes continuing existence of the soul or person between death and resurrection. Almost every detail of this general confession and its biblical basis, however, has been disputed. The debate has been fueled by the development of beliefs about the afterlife within the Bible itself and the variety of language in which they are expressed. The Hebrew Bible does not present the human soul (nepeš) or spirit (rûah) as an immortal substance, and for the most part it envisions the dead as ghosts in Sheol, the dark, sleepy underworld. Nevertheless it expresses hope beyond death (see Pss. 23 and 49:15) and eventually asserts physical resurrection (see Isa. 26:19; Dan. 12:2).</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&amp;rft.genre=bookitem&amp;rft.atitle=Immortality&amp;rft.btitle=The+Encyclopedia+of+Christianity&amp;rft.date=2003&amp;rft.au=Cooper&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AChristian+mortalism" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-235"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-235">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFCrossLivingstone2005" class="citation cs2">Cross; Livingstone, eds.

Equally misleading is the interpretation that too radically separates soul from body as in the Greek view of human nature. See body; spirit. N. Porteous (in IDB, 4:428) states it well when he says, "The Hebrew could not conceive of a disembodied nepeš, though he could use nepeš with or without the adjective 'dead,’ for corpse (e.g., Lev. 19:28; Num. 6:6).” Or as R. B. Laurin has suggested, "To the Hebrew, man was not a 'body' and a 'soul,’ but rather a 'body-soul,’ a unit of vital power" (BDT, 492). In this connection, the most significant text is Gen. 2:7, "the Lord God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life [nišmat hayyîm], and the man became a living being [nepeš hayyâ]" (the KJV rendering "living soul" is misleading). …The Bible speaks of the nepeš as departing and/or returning (Gen. 35:18; 1 Ki. 17:21–22). However, the crucial series of texts are those in which the OT writers indicate a fear of death and a fear of the loss of the self or soul through the experience of death (cf. Job 33:18–30; Ps. 16:10; 30:3; 116:8; Isa. 38:15–17). What is essential to understanding the Hebrew mind is the recognition that the human being is a unit: body-soul! The soul is not, therefore, unaffected by the experience of death. OT eschatology does indeed contain seminal elements of hope implying the more positive teaching of the NT, as can be seen in the OT phrase, "rested with his fathers" (1 Ki. 2:10 et al.), in David’s confident attitude toward the death of his child (2 Sam. 12:12–23), and in Job’s hope for a resurrection (Job 19:20–29). It is this essential soul-body oneness that provides the uniqueness of the biblical concept of the resurrection of the body as distinguished from the Greek idea of the immortality of the soul.'</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-FOOTNOTEBrandon200765-5-237"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-FOOTNOTEBrandon200765-5_237-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><a href="#CITEREFBrandon2007">Brandon 2007</a>, p.&#160;65-5: 'Mortalism, the idea that the soul is not immortal by nature'</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-238"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-238">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFCairdHurst1994" class="citation cs2">Caird; Hurst (1994), <i>New Testament Theology</i>, p.&#160;267, <q>But the Jew did not believe that human beings consist of an immortal soul entombed for a while in a mortal body.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&amp;rft.genre=book&amp;rft.btitle=New+Testament+Theology&amp;rft.pages=267&amp;rft.date=1994&amp;rft.au=Caird&amp;rft.au=Hurst&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AChristian+mortalism" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-239"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-239">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFFordMuers2005" class="citation cs2">Ford, David; Muers, Rachel (2005), <i>The modern theologians: an introduction to Christian theology since 1918</i> (3rd&#160;ed.), Malden, Massachusetts: Blackwell, p.&#160;693, <a href="/wiki/ISBN_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="ISBN (identifier)">ISBN</a>&#160;<a href="/wiki/Special:BookSources/1405102764" title="Special:BookSources/1405102764"><bdi>1405102764</bdi></a>, <a href="/wiki/OCLC_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="OCLC (identifier)">OCLC</a>&#160;<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://search.worldcat.org/oclc/57344044">57344044</a>, <q>While the idea of an immortal soul is an established belief for most Christians, it cannot be supported by Biblical texts. …Consequently Buddhist and biblical views of the self agree that there exists no immortal soul that remains self-identically permanent through time.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&amp;rft.genre=book&amp;rft.btitle=The+modern+theologians%3A+an+introduction+to+Christian+theology+since+1918&amp;rft.place=Malden%2C+Massachusetts&amp;rft.pages=693&amp;rft.edition=3rd&amp;rft.pub=Blackwell&amp;rft.date=2005&amp;rft_id=info%3Aoclcnum%2F57344044&amp;rft.isbn=1405102764&amp;rft.aulast=Ford&amp;rft.aufirst=David&amp;rft.au=Muers%2C+Rachel&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AChristian+mortalism" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-FOOTNOTEMoody1990182-240"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-FOOTNOTEMoody1990182_240-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><a href="#CITEREFMoody1990">Moody 1990</a>, p.&#160;182: 'Berkouwer has a long chapter on the meaning of the soul called 'The Whole Man.'
