The Wages of Sin Is Death: A Biblical Case for Conditional Immortality
Scripture calls the wages of sin death and God’s gift eternal life. This essay argues that everlasting life is given only in Christ, and that the final punishment of those who refuse him is a real and irreversible death, not endless conscious torment. It works through the biblical evidence, the hardest passages, the witness of the early church, and what the question means for the church and for Christian hope.
