Immortality is simply the eternal continuous and conscious existence of the soul after the death of the body. Within the Bible the term immortality is usually used of the body only. However, theology proper uses the term as applied to both the body and the soul. For our purposes here we will focus on the continuous consciousness of the soul-spirit or the immaterial part of the human after the body ceases to live.
Another evidence for the Doctrine of Immortality is based upon the Doctrine of Resurrection. The very act of resurrection implies immortality. We are raised to live forever. In the Old Testament the doctrine is found in Isaiah 26:19; Daniel 12:2-3; and Hosea 13:14. In the New Testament it is clearly expressed in John 5:25-29 and Revelation 20:4-6, 11-15. This then according to Scripture, demonstrates that the immaterial part of man is viewed as being with God upon death and is conscious.
