Conditional Immortality?
from Created Souls · host Joshua R. Farris
Here I continue the discussion from the previous episode about the doctrine of the immortality of the soul, which is represented in numerous creedal, ecumenical, and confessional statements. I consider the doctrine of conditionalism and suggest that it is largely consistent with what I have said in the last several episodes because I was affirming the doctrine of the soul which entails some version of immortality (as the catholic statements affirm) contra the immediate resurrection and extinction re-creation views affirm. That being said, conditionalism does contradict the clear teaching of many of the ecumenical and confessional statements mentioned, which prompts several other important questions about the nature of the soul and the nature of immortality of which there are nuances in the philosophical, biblical, and theological discussions that deserve our attention but in another context.
