The Immortality of the Soul: A Protest is a philosophical book written by Joseph Agar Beet. The book explores the concept of the immortality of the soul and argues against the popular belief that the soul is inherently immortal. Beet argues that the idea of the soul's immortality is not supported by the Bible and that it is a concept that has been adopted from Greek philosophy. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores different aspects of the topic. The author discusses the nature of the soul, the biblical evidence for and against its immortality, and the implications of the belief in the soul's immortality. Beet also critiques the arguments put forward by proponents of the immortality of the soul and offers his own interpretation of the relevant biblical passages. The book is written in a clear and accessible style and is aimed at both scholars and general readers interested in the philosophy of religion.The Real Significance Of The Doctrine Of The Immortality Of The Soul Is Its Bearing On The Ultimate Destiny Of The Wicked. This Teaching Has, In Ancient And Modern Times, Been Supplemented Or Limited In Three Directions By Other Teaching About The Ultimate Destiny Of The Wicked. 1. To The Pictures Of Actual Suffering Found In The New Testament, The Traditional Teaching Of The Church Has Added The Assertion That This Suffering Will Be Endless. 2. Others, Especially In Recent Times, Have Added To, And Limited The Teaching Of The New Testament By Endeavoring To Prove That The Suffering Therein Depicted Will Ultimately, After Different Degrees Of Suffering In Proportion To Different Degrees Of Guilt, Be Lost In Unconsciousness. 3. Others Have Not Only Gone Beyond The New Testament, But Have As I Think Contradicted It, By Asserting With More Or Less Confidence That All Men Will Ultimately Be Saved.' (P. 111-14) But To Every Careful Student Of The New Testament Two Doctrines Stand Out As Clearly And Frequently Taught There: (1) That Eternal Life In Infinite Blessing Awaits All Who Put Trust In Christ And Walk In His Steps; (2) That Ruin, Complete And Final, Awaits Those Who Reject The Salvation He Offers And Persist In What They Know To Be Sin. We Have No Right To Assert In God's Name Anything More Than We Can Trace By Abundant And Decisive Evidence To The Lips Of Christ And The Pen Of The Apostles And Evangelists. And The Teaching Which Can Be So Traced Is All We Need.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
