The Immortality of Being

"We want some sort of like system that explains how immortal am I really as a human? Correct. And so it's led to different conclusions in the Christian tradition," he says. "If you choose a life that's on a trajectory continually away from the tree of life, then it's choosing death, non-existence." The root of it is in the Eden narrative, it's conditional immortality. Immortality is a gift of God.
