Only one God has immortality, and because the person cannot be immortal ( 1 Tim 6.16, 1.17 ).

Man is mortal  ( John 4.14, 1 Cor 15.53 )  and because it must search for immortality ( Rom 2.7 ).

 

Man was made from the dust of the Earth ( Gen 2.7 ) and created in the image of God - a reasonable creature ( Gen 1.26-27 ).

HOWEVER, THIS DOES NOT IMPLY THAT HE WAS CREATED IMMORTAL AND OMNISCIENT AS GOD.

 

BREATH OF LIFE ( Heb. "neshimat-a-Chaim"  ) was blew in the face of the person in creation ( Gen 1.7, Job 33.4 ). It is there and the animals ( Gen 7.22 ). In the Old Testament this phrase is found 24 times, and nothing is said about  immortality.

SOUL ( Heb. “nefesh”, 754 times in Old Testament; Greek. "psuhe", 104 times in New Testament ). It have people and animals too, because they themselves are "soul alive" ( Gen 1.20, 24; 2.7 ). THEREFORE THE SOUL IS MORTAL. "The soul thus will die" (Ezekiel 18.4).

SPIRIT ( Heb. “ruach”, 377 times in Old Testament; Greek. "pnejma", 385 times in New Testament. )  -  Nowhere says that he is immortal.  Animals also have the spirit of life ( Gen 7.15-22, Eccl 3.19-21 ).

 

Bottom line: these words are found in the Scriptures of all 1644 times, but said the provisions of the "immortal soul", etc. In addition, in  Ezekiel 18.4  and elsewhere spoke of her mortality.

The doctrine of the immortal soul is pagan and NOT BIBLICAL .

The origin - the ancient world  (Babylon, Egypt, etc.).
