Most Christians today think that those who believe in Jesus, when they die, their soul or self separates and goes to heaven. Is this biblical and if not, where did Christians get this idea from?-2. Explanation of the Greek philosophical view of Plato that "death is the separation of the soul from the body". Most Christians think Plato’s description of death is in the Bible.-3. If people don’t “go to heaven” when they die, what is the biblical view of what happens to a person when they die?-4. Is the human soul or self immortal? What is meant by “conditional immortality”?-5. As examples, two main passages that Christians point to as evidence that “when you die you go to heaven” Luke 2 Corinthians - 6. If people’s souls don’t separate from their bodies at death and go to heaven, that is a lie, no? How does this lie deflect from what is real? A different hope. What is the biblical hope for a believer in God and Jesus?--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/onegodreport-podcast/support
