Immortal Soul
(From Forerunner Commentary)

Ecclesiastes 9:2-3  (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up) Both the righteous and the wicked—even the animals!—go to the same place at death. All physical creatures are composed of dust and return to dust again. These scriptures make it abundantly clear that no one goes to either heaven or hell at death, and further, no one who is dead has the capacity to feel joy or pain. Earl L. Henn (1934-1997) Basic Doctrines: The Fate of the Wicked

Ecclesiastes 9:5  (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up) Since the Bible states plainly that the dead are not conscious of anything, we can logically conclude that man is not born with an immortal soul that is conscious and aware of things happening around it after death! Just What Is Man?

John 3:6  (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up) Man is composed of flesh—of protoplasm. Jesus plainly says that if one is born of (and therefore composed of) flesh, he cannot also at the same time be born of (composed of) spirit. He must be one or the other! So this verse alone is strong evidence that man is not an immortal, spiritual "soul" in a body of mortal flesh. Just What Is Man?
