I am agreeing with Jesus about the immortality of the soul. Remember what I said about physical and spiritual life and death? Abraham, Isaac, And Jacob are dead physically but alive spiritually. That is why Jesus said they are alive.
Luke 20:38
He is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for to him all are alive.”
Do you believe the passages that say Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob are dead are wrong?
You keep ignoring anything that doesn't agree with you. Again, the passage is referring to the Resurrection. Jesus stated plainly,
And as touching the dead, that they rise: have ye not read in the book of Moses, how in the bush God spake unto him, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?
27 He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living: ye therefore do greatly err. (Mk. 12:26-27 KJV)
The passage is about the Resurrection.
Your not agreeing with Jesus because the Bible doesn't teach the immortality of the soul. Paul tells us that the Father alone has immortality.
14 That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:
15 Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;
16 Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen. (1 Tim. 6:14-16 KJV)
Paul said that Jesus will show the only one who has immortality. The one who dwells in light that no man can approach. The one whom no man has seen nor can see. That is the Father. He is the only one who has immortality. So, the immortal soul doctrine is just another error that people believe.
If man was immortal why did God promise him eternal life? That wouldn't make much sense would it? Why promise eternal life to someone who already has eternal life?
