Aspects of Immortality in Terms of Conditionalism

Summary/Abstract: Conditionalism is a religious concept met in the ancient Judaism dogma, but also in some old Christian religious groups, and in some radical Protestant Christian denominations together with theologians past and present, who do not accept the doctrine of the soul’s natural immortality, but only that immortality that those saved by the sacrifice of our Saviour Jesus Christ on the Cross will receive as a gift from God, immortality which will be given at the end of our world’s dramatic history. They believe that man was created from the ashes of the ground and after contact with the breath of divine life given by the Creator, breath which includes in it the principle of life, man became a rational soul, a living person with self awareness and indivisible being. Conditionalism believes that man is mortal and that only Deity possesses immortality which means not only the quality of not dying, but also the property to be the cause and the source of one’s own life. They believe that immortality is not a natural quality of man or his soul, but is exclusively considered as being God’s gift, subject to saving (salvation).
