Well, is anyone created actually immortal? Isn't God the only one who has no beginning or end ? Isn't He the only one set apart from Time? Is Christ even immortal? We believe he was created by his Father, as all sons are. So, He has a beginning, he died and then was raised to Life. Adam was created and I see that he would not have died if he hadn't sinned. What he would have to do to preserve that life is beyond me. If God wants to keep you alive He will do so by any means He desires. And is not the Tree of Life actually Christ? Is it an actual tree? Is there a reason the New Testament keeps telling us that Christ died on the Tree ?
Immortality is more than deathlessness.
And then there's this I'd love to get clarification on - I Timothy 613.
I charge you in the presence of God, who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus, who in his testimony before Pontius Pilate made the good confession, to keep the commandment unstained and free from reproach until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, which he will display at the proper time- he who is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and the Lord of Lords, who alone has immortality, who dwells in unapproachable light, whom no one has ever seen or can see.
So, who is the blessed and only Sovereign? God like I'm thinking? Or no, the verse is referring to Christ? How can it talk about Christ whom no one has seen when they all had seen him? So, I think God alone has immortality. Didn't Ray say no one has seen God and we have no reason to think we ever would?
