IF A SOUL CAN DIE
IT CANNOT BE IMMORTAL
CAN WHATEVER IS INTENDED BY THE HEBREW WORD "NEHPHESH"
DIE? THE BIBLE SAYS OVER 320 TIMES THAT THE NEHPHESH [soul]:
1. CAN DIE
2. CAN BE KILLED BY MAN
3. OR THAT IT IS ALREADY DEAD.
If it can, then whatever "nehphesh" is translated into IS something that can die. If the
many words that "nehphesh" is translated into is something that can die, then the
soul cannot be immortal, and it can die. To say that "nehphesh" [soul] is immortal and
cannot die makes the Bible be wrong repeatedly. If the soul [nehphesh] is immortal and
cannot die, the writers of the Bible did not know it.
(1). Souls [nehpheshs] can die Numbers 23:10, Ezekiel 18:4, 20, Joshua 11:11. "They
smote all the souls" [nehphesh]. An immortal soul can die? NOT ONLY DOES THE
BIBLE NOT SAY THE SOUL IS IMMORTAL, IT DENIES IT BY SAYING
OFTEN THAT THE SOUL CAN DIE OR BE KILLED OR IS DEAD.
(2). Souls [nehpheshs] can be murdered. Deuteronomy 12:23; Numbers 35:11-15.

(8). Souls [nehpheshs] can be sought to kill it Jeremiah 44:30
