ONE GOSPEL TRUTH SERIES. THE NATURE OF MAN. THE DEVIL destroyed by Jesus being SIN resulting in death (Heb. 2.14, 10.26), it follows that MAN IS MORTAL. NATURE proves this and the word of God abundantly supports the fact. GOD’S LOVE however, provided a way by which those pleasing to Him might obtain eternal life. THE IMMORTALITY OF THE SOUL FABLE is of pagan origin and nullifies the need of salvation. THE WORD OF GOD DECLARES: — “Unto dust shalt THOU return” (Gen. 3.19, Psa. 104.29, Ecc. 3.19-20); “DEATH passed upon all men” (Rom. 5.12); “in Adam all die” (1 Cor. 15.22) “What man . . . shall not see death—that he deliver his SOUL from the grave” (Psa. 89.48, 30.3, 86.13, Job. 33.22); “In death there is no remembrance” (Psa. 6.5, Ecc. 9.10); “In that very day his thoughts perish” (Psa. 146.3) “As though I had not been” (Job 10.19) and abundant other testimonies.
