Desire for Knowledge: Bible's Explanation on the Death of the Soul

0:00 Throughout the 16th and 19th century, many Christians believed in this mortalism, that the dead are truly dead. So what does the Bible say about this belief? Well, the Bible reveals that this belief was created by the devil himself when he told Eve at the tree of knowledge of good and evil that you will not surely die. But isn't this talking about the body only? What about the soul of the person? Well, Ezekiel 18.4 says the soul who sins shall die. And Matthew 10.28 says do not fear those who can kill the body but cannot kill the soul, but rather fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
