Les Feldick Bible Study

Why will the real part of a person never die?

The real part of a person—the invisible personality of mind, will, and emotion—will never die because it is the direct creation of God, coming straight from His very heart. God made it eternal, as He Himself is eternal.

Les explains that the body is merely a tabernacle or tent—a temporary dwelling place for the real person, the invisible personality of mind, will, and emotion. Alongside it, God placed a spirit entity capable of communication and fellowship with the Creator. Because this inner part is the direct creation of God, coming straight from His heart, it is eternal and will never die—eternal as God is eternal. Les also notes this truth appears early in Genesis, since God created man with a will for making a choice.
