Plato’s Cage, Resurrection’s Paradox | Ep.73

🔥 This in-depth discussion examines the biblical understanding of death, the soul, and resurrection, contrasting it sharply with Greek philosophical dualism and modern interpretations, such as full preterism. The core biblical anthropology presented emphasizes that a human becomes a living soul only when the breath (spirit) animates the body, and death is the cessation of breath, not an immediate transition to heaven. The resurrection is essential for eternal life, as the dead remain "asleep" until Christ's return, rejecting the notion that souls instantly ascend to heaven upon death. This interpretation challenges popular theological views, such as the traditional reading of 2 Corinthians 5:8 and the idea of an immortal soul separate from the body. It also critiques full preterism and dualistic views that undermine the physical resurrection and the essence of the gospel. Ultimately, the gospel is framed as a profound life-and-death reality centered on resurrection hope rather than an escape from the body to an immaterial existence.
