4. John 10:11 "I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd lays down his life [life-soul-psukee] for the sheep. 12 He that is a hireling, and not a shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, beholds the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep, and flees, and the wolf snatches them, and scatters [them]: 13 [he flees] because he is a hireling, and cares not for the sheep. 14 I am the good shepherd; and I know mine own, and mine own know me, 15 even as the Father knows me, and I know the Father; and I lay down my life [life-soul-psukee] for the sheep. 16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice: and they shall become one flock, one shepherd. 17 Therefore, the Father loves me, because I lay down my life [life-soul-psukee], that I may take it again." An immortal soul, as taught today, cannot die; therefore, the translators could not say Christ gave up His immortal soul. He gives His life, not an immortal soul.

[5] PASSAGES WITH PSUKEE (soul)
USED IN SYMBOLIC LANGUAGE.
For notes on these see chapter eight. Those who believe in the Pagan doctrine of an immortal soul from birth and Hell have no plain easily understood non-figurative statement. That they must make figurative language, metaphors and symbolic passage into literal statements SHOWS THE WEAKNESS OF THEIR BELIEF, that it is from man and not from God. Figurative language and parables are made to be superior over plain statements, and clear language must be made to agree with what they think is said in the symbolic language.
1. Revelation 6:9 "And when he opened the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls [life-soul-psukee] of them that had been slain for the word of God." See chapter eight - the fifth seal - souls under the altar in heaven - a symbolic picture.
2. Revelation 8:9 "And there died the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, [even] they that had life [life-soul-psukee]; and the third part of the ships were destroyed." A third of the immortal undying souls died? Are immortal souls, as the word is used today, in the sea? Do fish have an immortal soul?
3. Revelation 12:11 "And they overcame him because of the blood of the Lamb, and because of the word of their testimony; and they loved not their life [life-soul-psukee] even unto death." If this symbolic passage were made literal, it would say the soul [psukee] does die.
4. Revelation 16:3 "And the second poured out his bowl into the sea; and it became blood as of a dead man; and every living soul [life-soul-psukee] died, [even] the things that were in the sea." If made literal, this symbolic passage says living souls are the things that are in the sea. Every "living creature" fish in the sea are "souls [psukee]" that died. When will all the fish in the sea literally die?
• "And every living thing [psukee] in the sea died" New International Version
• "And every creature [psukee] living in the sea died" New American Bible
• "And every living thing [psukee] in it died" Revised English Bible
5. Revelation 18:13-14 "And cinnamon, and spice, and incense, and ointment, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and cattle, and sheep; and [merchandise] of horses and chariots and slaves; and souls [life-soul-psukee] of men. And the fruits which your soul [life-soul-psukee] lusted after are gone from thee." If there were an immaterial part of a person, could it lust after material things? Will an immortal soul be slaves in Heaven or any other place?
• "Slaves, and human lives [psukee]" Revised English Bible.
6. Revelation 20:4 "And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and [I saw] the souls [life-soul-psukee] of them that had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus, and for the word of God, and such as worshiped not the beast, neither his image, and received not the mark upon their forehead and upon their hand; and they lived ["came to life" New American Standard Version, New Revised Standard Version], and reigned with Christ a thousand years." "The rest of the dead lived not until ..." ["did not come to life" New American Standard Version, New Revised Standard Version] Revelation 20:5. Some immortal souls "came to life" and some "lived not." If the soul cannot die, it cannot come to life and if it cannot die, then all souls live and none can "lived not." This passage is a real problem when taken literal.
• Five of the six times psukee is used in Revelation, is something that can and does die.
1. Revelation 6:9 "Souls [life-soul-psukee]...slain"
2. Revelation 8:9 "And there died the third part...that had life" [life-soul-psukee]
3. Revelation 12:11 "Loved not their life [life-soul-psukee] even unto death"
4. Revelation 16:3 "Every living soul [life-soul-psukee] died" [In the sea, all fish died]. Can anyone tell me why the translators, who believed the soul could not die and do not believe fish have a soul, put "ever living soul died" in this passage? "And every living thing [life-soul-psukee] in the sea died" New American Standard Bible.
5. Revelation 20:4 "The souls [life-soul-psukee] of them that had been beheaded"
THE SOUL IS THE EARTHLY IMAGE OF ADAM
A "LIVING SOUL" IS THE "NATURAL BODY"
Psukikos: natural [earthly].
• "The NATURAL (psukikos - man)" [1 Corinthians 2:4]
• "A NATURAL (psukikos - body)" [1 Corinthians 15:44]
• "There is a NATURAL (psukikos - body)" [1 Corinthians 15:44]
• "That which is NATURAL (psukikos)" [1 Corinthians 15:46]
The soul or the spirit is not the spiritual body that we will have after the resurrection.
WE ARE NOW A LIVING SOUL WHICH IS IN THE IMAGE OF ADAM
1 Corinthians 15 [1] NATURAL BODY verse 44,46 WE NOW HAVE
ADAM [2] A LIVING SOUL verse 45 ADAM'S
[3] EARTHLY verse 47 IMAGE verse 49
WE WILL BE A SPIRITUAL BODY WHICH WILL BE IN THE IMAGE OF CHRIST
[1] SPIRITUAL BODY verse 45 WE WILL HAVE
CHRIST [2] LIFE GIVING SPIRIT verse 46 CHRIST'S IMAGE
[3] HEAVENLY verse 48 verse 49
"NATURAL" in verse 46 is used in place of "A LIVING SOUL" in verse 45, and ARE THE SAME THING. We now have Adam's image [a living soul-a living being, a natural being of this earth], but we will have the image of Christ [a spiritual body].
"For our citizenship is in heaven; whence also we wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ: who shall fashion anew the body of our humiliation, that it may be conformed to the body of His glory" [Philippians 2:20-21 American Standard Version] "change" King James Version "transform" New American Standard Version.
"Beloved, now are we children of God, and it is not yet made manifest what we shall be [what a spiritual body is composed of]. We know that, if he shall be manifested, we shall be like him; [have a spiritual body, be of the same substance] for we shall see him even as he is" [1 John 3:2].
"For in the resurrection
