Resurrection

"It is unthinkable, in biblical terms, for a person to deny the resurrection while taking comfort in knowing that his soul(thought the superior component) is saved. The sould is not saved if the body does not rise, since this would mean that God had abandoned the work of his hands. Then all his promises would lapse. If the body does not rise, then "your faith has nothing in it and you are still in your old state of sin. It follows also that those who have died within Christ's fellowship are utterly lost" (1 Cor. 15:17-18)."
