SALT LAKE CITY, UT -- (Marketwire) -- 01/08/13 -- Health Catalyst (formerly Healthcare Quality Catalyst), the leader in healthcare data warehousing, today announced it closed $33 million in Series B funding, led by Norwest Venture Partners (NVP), with participation from Sequoia Capital (Series A lead investor) and Sorenson Capital. The Health Catalyst platform brings a new paradigm to the rapidly growing market for healthcare performance improvement, enabling hospitals and health systems of any size to better manage the coming cuts in Medicare and Medicaid rates, and more easily shift to managing patient populations under new care models.
Health Catalyst has more than doubled in size in each of the past three years while expanding its product line from eight stand-alone solutions to a platform of more than 40 integrated products. The company's agile, healthcare-specific data warehousing platform is utilized in the care of more than 20 million patients, including at Allina Health, Indiana University Health, MultiCare Health System, North Memorial Health Care, Providence Health & Services, Stanford Hospital and Clinics, and Texas Children's Hospital. In the last year, a majority of Health Catalyst's existing clients have dramatically expanded their original relationships with the company as a result of the rapid return on investment from their initial work together.
CLICK TO TWEET: #EDW Health Catalyst Announces $33 Million funding round led by @NorwestVP, and @Sequoia_Capital.
As part of this Series B investment, Promod Haque, managing partner at Norwest Venture Partners (NVP), will join the board of Health Catalyst, with Fraser Bullock, co-founder and managing director of Sorenson Capital, participating as a board observer.
"Almost every hospital and hospital system will need a data warehouse to organize, visualize and utilize its data to address the $750 billion of waste in the U.S. healthcare system," said NVP's Haque. "Health Catalyst not only offers a best-in-class solution to meet this growing need, but it boasts a stellar list of referenceable customers with quantifiable results and a pipeline of health systems that are demanding the company's solutions. The management team collectively brings more than 340 years of successful healthcare data warehouse experience to the table and has done a stellar job building an outstanding company and technology platform. We look forward to partnering with the team to help grow the company further."
Dan Burton, CEO of Health Catalyst, said, "Health Catalyst is well-positioned to continue to partner with the country's largest and most advanced health systems, as well as offer smaller health systems and individual hospitals a turnkey solution using the same platform and architecture. We are grateful for the market validation of the effectiveness of our platform and we will be using the funding to continue to invest deeply in our technology, services, and people to support our clients in their continued progression towards being data driven organizations."
Health Catalyst's technology platform meets the need for more effective data management and analytics capabilities as health systems are required to adjust to new shared-risk payment models. Hospitals of all sizes can better leverage their investments in electronic health records (EHRs) to more effectively measure quality outcomes, meet regulatory and financial incentive reporting requirements, standardize around the best, safest care practices, and eliminate waste.
Developed by healthcare and data warehousing veterans, Health Catalyst's platform is designed for integrating and analyzing complex operational, financial, clinical, and research data. Health Catalyst's approach has helped large, integrated delivery networks and smaller hospitals alike improve quality outcomes while simultaneously realizing millions of dollars in cost savings from improvements in areas such as length of stay, readmission rates, reduction in unnecessary procedures and prevention of patient injury.
"The market has reached a clear inflection point. While most large healthcare organizations have crossed the first hurdle to capture medical records electronically, many are still struggling to turn that information into real improvements," said Michael Dixon, partner at Sequoia Capital and a Health Catalyst board member. "Health Catalyst is helping their clients overcome these challenges and harness their data to save money, meet compliance needs, and most importantly, improve the health of patients. We're excited to continue our partnership with them as they expand their business."
Bullock of Sorenson Capital commented, "We understand Health Catalyst's roots. Having invested in companies here in the Salt Lake Valley for many years, we know the caliber of folks at Health Catalyst and have witnessed their success as leaders previously at nationally-recognized health systems like Intermountain Healthcare and Northwestern. We are thrilled to help Health Catalyst continue in its growth."

Brian Murphy axed after unit shows little improvement Brad Biggs
The Carolina Panthers had major issues on special teams last season and those have persisted during the team's 2-7 start to this season.
That is what Panthers coach Ron Rivera used to explain his decision to fire special teams coach Brian Murphy a day after Carolina allowed a 76-yard punt return for a touchdown in a home loss to the Denver Broncos.
Murphy will be replaced by Richard Rodgers, who was added as an assistant during the offseason.
"The biggest thing I look to see us improve in some of our production numbers," Rivera said. "I told coach Rodgers what I wanted. I wanted things simplified. I wanted to come back to fundamental basics and that's the direction we're going to head right now."
According to the report by Joe Person of the Charlotte Observer, the move was Rivera's alone and it came with a blessing from owner Jerry Richardson. Rivera is trying to get things turned around with speculation he could be in trouble after the Panthers dismissed general manager Marty Hurney last month.

DURHAM -- These are exciting times for Ontario Power Generation as the company is undertaking dozens of projects around the province, said a senior vice-president.
"We'll build a clean and more prosperous future for those to come," said Frank Chiarotto, senior vice-president of hydro thermal operations.
"These projects make for exciting times. Projects like this come along once in a lifetime. I'm looking forward to having a hand in that and so is OPG," he said during a networking breakfast hosted by the Durham Strategic Energy Alliance on Thursday.
Mr. Chiarotto noted, "Our nuclear plants and programs make Durham an energy leader."
In Durham, projects include the refurbishment of the four reactors at the Darlington station. While that is going on, Pickering reactors will remain online, he said, noting last year, Pickering provided 14 per cent of the electricity used in Ontario.
"Pickering will be crucial when the Darlington units are off line," Mr. Chiarotto said.
"Our nuclear projects and all of OPG's projects dramatically benefit Ontario. It's billions of dollars in investment," he said, noting thousands of jobs are being created.
Hydro-electric does the same for northern Ontario, he added.
"If we do it right, Ontario as a whole benefits. We haven't seen so much being planned and built. The scale and variety of the projects is amazing," Mr. Chiarotto said.
The projects "bring economic benefits to where they are being built" and they provide "reliable, low emission electricity."
Collectively, the projects "will help modernize Ontario's electrical system," Mr. Chiarotto said.
Two large hydro-electric projects are underway, he said.
The first is the Niagara tunnel, which is 10 kilometres long and 140 feet below the community of Niagara Falls. It's so big, a four-storey building could be erected inside the tunnel, which is also wider than the tunnel connecting England and France. It will provide hydro-electric power for 100 years, he said.
About 90 per cent of the work is complete and it's expected to be in service in the spring.
The other project is the $2.6-billion Lower Mattagami Project, which will provide 430 megawatts of electricity, enough to power between 300,000 and 400,000 homes. It's in Northern Ontario, near Kapuskasing.
"It's one of the largest hydro-electric projects in Northern Ontario in 40 years. I've been at the site and it is awesome," Mr. Chiarotto said. "Our partnerships make it possible."
Partnerships include those with First Nations and Metis.
The Atikokan generating station in northwestern Ontario is being converted from burning coal to burning wood biomass, he said, adding it will provide 200 megawatts of electricity.
OPG is spending $2 billion on various projects, he said.
"Currently, we have more than 200 projects in hydro-electricity underway," he noted. "Every year we execute hundreds of these initiatives and they are all done on time and on budget. We bring investment to the local economy, we use local suppliers and strengthen Ontario's economy."
Doing these projects "gives OPG a huge amount of project management. We can share that with our contractors. We get better, they get better. It's a win-win."
Partnerships with communities are important to having success with a project, he said. "If we don't have your support or any host community, we won't be successful."
He pointed out how Clarington and Durham Region officials supported the Darlington refurbishment at regulatory hearings last year.
"One benefit, with the right partners, we know our projects will succeed. By the same token, our partners will also benefit. There's growth in the community, helps business and helps people in their lives," he said.

The french novel Zone by Mathias Énard has been receiving some early press for a few reasons.
1. We're publishing it (with an English translation by Charlotte Mandell) in spring 2010.
2. It's about 500 pages.
3. It's about 1 sentence.
The Chicago Tribune just ran an article, including some helpful references to other long sentences with which you may be familiar. Within the article, Chad helpfully describes this incredible book:
Open Letter Books at the University of Rochester has purchased the rights to the book and expects to publish a translation by Charlotte Mandell in spring 2010, according to Chad Post, the press director.
But is the record-setter gibberish? Not at all, says Post.
"It's told from inside this guy's mind as he takes a train trip," he says. "It has a lot of commas."
Intrigued? Here's a little excerpt.

Spoiler alert: acclaimed writer Stefan Zweig and his wife Lotte kill themselves at the end of Lauren Seksik's 2010 novel, The Last Days.

Video: Hole Two Putts At Once
T.J. Auclair was searching for some fun putt videos and got this from Australian Matt Field who practices putting with two balls to ensure a square face at impact.
And sometimes Field makes perfect contact.
"Brookwater has a heavily sloped practice green so I thought 'why not?' The putt was about six feet, but I hit it about 20 feet past, up the hill and back in the hole. It took me about 10 attempts."
And when the two balls finally dropped into the cup?
"The people on the club balcony thought I was a bit weird when I high-fived myself!" Field said.

Score from 1516 reviews Very good
Superior king size room was spacious and comfortable. Breakfast was the best I have EVER had. Had to leave at 0730 otherwise I would have stayed and eaten five times as much. Will be heading back to the Marriott for the breakfast alone. Pool was excellent and changing rooms well appointed.
Can't think of anything. Parking was a bit pricey I suppose. No power outlets near the bed.
The hotel is looking tired and jaded, far from the 5 star image it had a long time ago.
We had a very comfortable night. The food in the restaurant was excellent. Strongly recommended.
Room size Location Quiet
Very poor menu No proper table to eat at as restaurant was shut sunday evening Service was slow No complimentary water in room Single sachet of coffee in room
One member if staff in dining room was quite off with us, after we reluctantly sat in an area where we would be passed on both sides. She was very friendly to others and we were not rude!
The bed !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No free upgrade after being told that I could have a free upgrade !
Reception very helpfull ,room great.Breakfast choice and service very good top marks!!!
post code on web site lead us to Anchor rd garage entrance a guess as not signed or mentioned on web site.Not the way to start.
Lovely hotel, nice atmosphere and great staff. Great location, highly recommend.
Noise from revellers in the early hours. Not the hotels fault though.
Restaurant catered for vegan request by producing a menu with delicious choices
Friendly Staff onsite parking Able to check-in early Great location
Buffet Breakfast - watery eggs! So many hotels do the whole buffet breakfast option, which for large hotels I can understand. But it would be so much nicer if there was a "cook to order" option even if guests had to pay more for that option - I would certainly pay more for such a service. More befitting of a hotel in this class!
Most if the staff Pricing Parking
Central location and secure parking
How central hotel is to the harbourside staff were excellent quick checkin when we arrived.
Nothing at all
Great service, great food, super room and location.
Very noisy outside on a Saturday night until late in the morning but you cannot avoid this with a city hotel.
Because there was a slight glitch in our booking, we were given a free upgrade to a suite instead of a double room. Huge bed. Superb breakfasts too.
Room was lovely, comfortable bed. Breakfast was really nice.
My husband is a vegetarian and he likes a good cooked breakfast, but there were no veggie sausages on offer. The noise from the pubs opposite was really loud, but nothing you can do about that.
Location to nightlife and restaurants.
I would have expected a guest to get free parking.
Friendly staff, relaxed atmosphere and very comfortable rooms we had a lovely nights sleep
I booked this hotel as part of a 70th birthday present for my Mum, she and my stepfather were delighted with everything about the hotel, the decor, the comfortable bed and excellent facilities, the fantastic breakfast and the excellent service. I had told the hotel it was her 70th birthday and they made my mum's day when they delivered a gift and card to her room.
Really liked the location very central, staff were friendly and helpful when we asked for directions, pool was great size
The facilities in the spa need updating, there was paper coming off the wall in the pool, and the changing rooms seemed grimey
elegant lounges very clean room
Booked in for 1 night with my Daughter to visit the Uni. Room was beautiful, Staff friendly and helpful, Breakfast superb. Very convenient location and picturesque surroundings although we didn't have a view.
There was nothing that I could fault the hotel with. Bottled water in the room would have been a bonus and maybe something in the Mini Bar
fantastic location and near old docks also very good for local transport. Staff were all so cheerful and helpful at all times, in particular the staff in the bar and resteraunt, the meals we had were cooked to perfection. everything done that could be done to make our stay so perfect.
Very central, pleasant staff

I love hearing stories like the one shared by this week's Tuesday 12 x 12 author Erik Ammon, where 12 x 12 not only helps a writer overcome fear and inertia but also helps improve his or her writing. It's amazing what being part of a supportive community can do for your confidence and your craft. For someone who needed to overcome a great deal of doubt to get where he is today (at a minimum, a near shoo-in for winning this year's challenge), Erik has shown exceptional bravery. It takes courage to share your work with others, but it takes even more courage to recognize that you can get better and put in the hard work to do just that. I hope you're as inspired by Erik's story as I am. Welcome, Erik!
I've always loved writing. For a while, in the early to mid 90's, I wrote some poetry and started the next great epic fantasy novel. Then I stopped. I'm not sure why I did, I just did. Honestly, it may have been the thought of actually writing 150,000 to 200,000 words.
Fast forward twenty years…
I started writing again while recovering from hip and knee surgery in 2013. It gave me something to do since I couldn't run. I started with a running novella about my life in running that, in an ultimate world, would have ended with me getting back to ultra-marathons, qualifying for and racing in The Western States 100 Mile Endurance Trail Run. But, life isn't perfect, and neither is my knee. I'm hoping to still finish that story, but it's going to be a long time.
With a pause in the running novella, I turned to writing short stories, which I put up on a writing site. Someone on the site liked my writing and asked me to write a children's story with a moral for a possible site published anthology to benefit multiple sclerosis (if I remember correctly- the site is now defunct, so I can't check in to be sure). The story was quickly reviewed by many and received several 5 star reviews. With this confidence, I hired an illustrator and self-published The Rabbit Who Wished He Could Fly on February 14th, 2014.
From there, I began to write more and more, but felt my writing was not quite good enough. I still wasn't serious enough. I wasn't a "real" writer. Funny thinking that. I always told runners they were real runners no matter how fast or slow they were, no matter how much or how little they ran. If you ran, you were a runner. But that thinking didn't transfer to me, as a writer.
Enter 12×12. I found out about the 12×12 Picture Book Challenge in January. By now I knew I wanted to be a children's book writer. The doubts came back to me: "You're not a real writer" "You're not good enough to sign-up." I told those thoughts to go…somewhere and signed up.
During my time with 12×12, my writing has improved by an amazing amount. It started with breaking through my fear and posting in the critique section, First 250 Words. I put up what I thought was great work, and had it quickly, and expertly, dissected. I didn't let that discourage me. This was why I joined 12×12. I needed these critiques and I used them to become a better writer. This past summer, I joined a critique group through 12×12 and even had another member ask to read a couple of my stories. Both the critique group and the individual have given great advice. I've seen my writing take another leap over the past two months with their advice. I feel like a few of my picture book manuscripts are now "finished."
I have written eleven picture book manuscripts, have ideas for a few more, joined a critique group, sent manuscripts to publishers, and have been actively seeking an agent. I even started a writing blog! All things I never would have done without 12×12. If you've heard of 12×12 and are not sure if you should join next year, put those fears aside and sign-up!
My name is Erik Ammon. I'm a 2nd grade teacher in my 15th year of teaching. I'm also a running coach and a pre-published writer. I have a wonderful photographer wife, a trumpet playing 10 year old son and a 9 year old soccer star daughter. Oh, and a cat, Kona, that runs the house.Categories: 12 x 12, Children's Books, Guest Blogging, Publishing, Self Publishing, Writing · Tags: 12 x 12, Children's Books, Critique Groups, Erik Ammon, Guest Blogging, Self Published, Tuesday 12 x 12, Works in Progress, Writer, Writing

I was sitting in the kitchen at my husband's friend's house drinking tea at a last visit, saying goodbye before we moved to another country. He (the friend) said, "where there are black people, there you'll find prostitution, drug use, assault, and illegal gun sales." I was immediately infuriated, but I didn't say anything. I don't really know this person, he's one of my husband's best friends, and it was their last meeting in a long time, possibly ever. Just not the time to get into a discussion on racism, for me to lecture them and react angrily like I wanted to. Also, he provided entertainment at our wedding for free. I had to stifle my emotions and shove them down. The only thing I managed to slip in in that conversation, which was mostly between them, was, "if it bothers you to live near them, you're going to be bothered anywhere. It doesn't bother me." (The conversation was about where we would live.)
But that night I couldn't sleep. I had so many thoughts I wanted to express, to tell him how wrong he was and how unfair he was being and to shame him by proving that racism is the result of a psychological desire to consider yourself better than someone else. But it was too late. So I'm turning to this blog.
What is racism? I used to think that racism was ignorance. Uneducated people who don't know any better just let themselves assume the worst about others, because it feels good and "to be on the safe side". (They don't know anything about the people they are judging, so they choose a negative judgement just in case.) But these are not ignorant people. They are young, educated people, both of whom have been to the United States and observed life there, including black people. My husband didn't say anything at the time, but I was just as mad at him because I know he feels the same way. Both these young men are Russian, and Russians are racist. Wait a minute, how can I say that? Am I not judging them prematurely, being a hypocrite? I had to figure that out, too. And I did.
Here is what I came up with in the arguments in my head in the following few days:
First of all, racism is a deep part of Russian culture. It's fascinating to me to see the contrast of young, smart, educated and well-traveled people being racist anyway because it's part of their culture. It has all sorts of implications about how deeply one's culture affects one's mentalities and view of the world. To say "Russians are racist" is not a judgement, because it's a fact. It's not that they choose to be racist, they are trained to think that way from birth. (But they fail to rise above it, too. More on that later.) To say a trait is an element of one's culture is not racism. For example, Filipinos have a strong culture of not smelling and controlling personal body odor, whereas in other cultures smelling is permitted. Those aren't racist statements, because they are overall cultural observations.
To say "Americans are fat," isn't racism either, because it's based on fact. To say "all Americans are fat" would be ridiculous because it's not true. To say "where there are Americans, there are fat people" would be not necessarily true, however likely. But "Americans" are not a race. I believe my husband's friend's statement was connected to the color of people's skin and although he didn't say it, he implied that they themselves cause and perpetrate these problems, because they are intrinsically a bad people.
If I had started to argue with him, he would have said, "Of course there are exceptions, but…" But what? But most of them are bad. So, a non-criminal black person is the exception to the rule? That's just crap.
I don't know statistics, but I would not have tried to argue with him by saying "that's not true." Yes, African American communities often suffer from a lot of problems, but these problems have more to do with socio-economic status than with skin tone. When are Russians going to realize that a person's actions depend not on the "group" that person belongs to, but on the person? To think otherwise is just not logical. That sort of logic is … not logic at all. Not to mention wrong, tacky, primitive and sinful.
A person born in a poor neighborhood or country with limited resources and opportunities is more likely to turn to illegal activities. And why do African Americans suffer from under-privileged socio-economic status? Partly because they are denied opportunities by people in positions of power. Because of racism. It's a vicious cycle.
So, although he didn't say anything that is not true, his thinking is all wrong. For example, I could say, "where there are white people, there you'll find…" and list lots of problems. I could say "Russians," for that matter! Russian society is plagued with many problems, including alcoholism, drug addiction and selling, prostitution, violent crime such as robbery and assault, hate crimes, high instance of auto collisions (due to alcoholism and stupidity), corruption, domestic abuse, smoking, high instance of cancer and other health problems, due to smoking and not protecting themselves from the sun, lack of resources for the abused, lack of accommodations for the disabled, functional illiteracy, poverty … and racism! And often, human rights violations! Can I say these things about Russian populations in the US? Yes, with the exception of human rights violations, but how should I know? Maybe they're engaged in human trafficking here in the US, for all I know.
I have yet to meet a Russian who is not racist. (And I have lived there many years and had all sorts of relationships with friends, colleagues, teachers, etc.) They don't think of themselves as racist, either. They think of themselves as realists, acknowledging the facts. It's like crazy people don't know they're crazy. There's no sense talking to them. They'll never see it your way.

The Bible, in both the Old and New Testaments, repeatedly makes reference to the "soul." Mainstream Christianity generally teaches that this soul is an immortal component of human beings; that upon our death, it is released from our bodies to spend eternity in either eternal bliss or eternal torment, depending on our conduct in this life. But a closer examination of the word shows that this is not the case.
The only Hebrew word translated as "soul" in the Old Testament, nephesh , is also translated elsewhere as "creature" or "being." All three words are synonymous, whether we look at God's creation of "an abundance of living creatures [ nephesh ]" in the sea (Genesis:1:20) or that "man became a living being [ nephesh ]" (Genesis:2:7) or read God's declaration that "the soul [ nephesh ] who sins shall die" (Ezekiel:18:4).
That last verse is key to understanding the concept of a soul. If the soul is immortal, it would be impossible to say that sinning would produce death. Rather, if mainstream Christianity were correct in its doctrine of hell, Ezekiel:18:4 would have to say, "the soul who sins shall be condemned to eternal torment." But it, along with the apostle Paul in Romans:6:23, plainly states that the penalty of sin is death , not never-ending fiery torment in hell.
Given that the soul is capable of death, and taking into consideration the fact that the word translated "soul" is used in reference to all sorts of living creatures, we can only conclude that the soul talked about in the Bible is a living being itself—not an eternal component of mankind.
For further explanation of the soul, including a look at instances of the word in the New Testament and information about the "spirit in man" (Job:32:8).
Please read our booklets What Happens After Death? and Heaven and Hell: What Does the Bible Really Teach?
Hi rwp,
Regarding Mt 10:28, you may want to check out this link, which I also included in my response to your other, related question:
In many places in the Bible, the word soul simply means "living being", or "person". (For instance, consider 2 Sam:4:9 and Acts:2:43). So it perishes when we die (Ezek:18:4).
God is immortal (1 Tim:6:16), so when the word is applied to Him, as in Jer:5:29, it refers to His immortal person or being. But just because we were created in God's image (Gen:1:26-27) doesn't mean we are a mirror image, for He made both male and female. Neither did He make us a spiritual or a perfect image at this time, but just as He has hands, feet, a face, etc, we have these features too. And we resemble Him so much more closely than the animals. We also have an intangible component called a spirit, but it differs from God's Spirit in that it is specifically called the spirit in man (Job:32:8; 1 Cor:2:11).
God's Spirit is mentioned separately in this passage (verses 10-11). Everything that is part of God is spiritual, so yes, His soul/body (person) is non-physical, and His spirit (the Holy Spirit) is also not physical. We obviously aren't a complete replica of Him yet, because we aren't immortal at this time, and our faces don't yet shine as the sun (Rev:1:13-16, Dan:12:3). While we do have a body and a spirit, which are not the same thing (Eccl 12:7), they aren't the same as God's, although they can be patterned after God's.
Jesus is the only Being currently in God's express image (Heb:1:3). When we are transformed to spirit-composed bodies like God's, then we will resemble Him and the Father much more closely in character and appearance (1 Jn:3:2).
While the answer given rightly impugns Mainstream Christianity, it too is lacking.
The "answer" is lacking in that it neglects to tell the whole story in that it doesn't point out that God himself speaks of his own soul (his own nephesh) in numerous places ... Lev:26:30, Is.1:14, Jer:8:9, Matt:12:18.
And doesn't Gen:2:7 show Adam receiving his soul (his life) directly from God - doesn't God breath it directly into his earthly body? Do not each of us receive a portion of God's soul from him as Adam did - just like each saint receives a portion of God's Holy Spirit from him upon the laying on of hands? Can't it be partitioned out in a similar manner as he does his Spirit? Isn't that why all souls are his? - because all souls (all life) come from him - and him only? And is God's soul not immortal? Can he not remove his soul from us similarly as he can remove his spirit from us? If he removes his Spirit from us are we then no longer his children? And if he removes our spirit from us do we not expire? So wouldn't we also expire if he took his soul back as well?
Also the answer states that since Ezekiel:18:4 instructs that the soul that sins shall die, then if the soul were immortal, it would be impossible to say that sinning would produce death. But doesn't that really depend on exactly what is meant by immortal? For instance - is the Word not immortal? But didn't he die? That being the case, wouldn't that imply that just because something can die doesn't mean its not immortal? And notice Ezekiel doesn't say how, when, or where a sunning soul will die. For instance, if one sins does he die immediately? Obviously not - right? Otherwise I couldn't be writing this now.
There is a verse in the bible that actually illuminates this whole issue if one is only willing to simply read and fully analyze what it plainly says ... and then believe it. And that verse is Matthew:10:28 -
"And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul [G5590 psyche]: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell [G1067 Gehenna]."
It answers virtually all the unanswered questions that Eze:18:4 and Rom:6:23 fail to answer. What it does is show a soul as being "conditionally" immortal.
In Jer:5:29 (and many other places as well) God speaks of his own soul (nephesh). Why wasn't this mentioned in the article? And how is God's soul different from our own ... considering that Adam received his directly from God (Gen:2:7)?
We know that man is created in the image of God. If man then is a soul that has a body and a spirit ... then isn't the same true for God (isn't he a soul that has a body and a sprit)? And if not ... then how would we then have been created in his image?
If Ezekiel:18:4 proves that it is impossible to say that sinning would produce soul death if the soul was immortal ... then how can we say that the "Word" is immortal ... after all ... he died.
There is an assumption seemingly made in the answers to almost all of the FAQs that involve some issue about the "soul". And the assumption that is made is that when we die, as we all do, that the soul dies at that time too. That is, its being assumed that when our bodies die ... our souls die at that same time too. I point this out because it appears to be in direct conflict to the bible's teaching in Matthew:10:28.
"Fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell [G1067 Gehenna]"
Here it plainly infers that our bodies can be killed without killing our souls. And further it implies that actually only God can kill the soul and that he does this in the lake of fire spoken of in Revelation:20:15 - "and if any one's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire."
And (as we all know) this Gehenna fire won't occur on this side of the millennium. So if it is true that the assumption is being made that the soul always dies when the body dies. Why is that assumption being made considering the clear implications of Matthew:10:28?
Hi rwp,
Regarding some of your points. The Word divested Himself of immortality and became flesh.
I think some you are assuming is that when 'soul' is mentioned, it always refers to something that lives separate from a body. You said, "And the assumption that is made is that when we die, as we all do, that the soul dies at that time too. That is, its being assumed that when our bodies die ... our souls die at that same time too."
This statement assumes a soul is something that can live after death separate from a body. You can't assume the point your are trying to prove, which is circular reasoning.
Psuche can be translated as 'life'. In Mtt 10:28, when we read man cannot kill the soul, only God. The translation that probably fits best here for the word 'soul' is life. So man cannot take away the possibility for someone to live. Because even if they kill you, God can resurrect you. But fear God, who can take away all possibility of 'life' for you. Because if you die, the second death, there is no coming back.
So inserting life for soul in this verse gives a better understanding. Do not fear man, who cannot take away the possibility for your existence. But fear God who can eliminate the very possibility for you to have life.
The verse says man cannot kill the soul, they cannot kill life. Because even if you die, God can give it back to you. This does not mean that the soul is something separate from the body that can live on its own.
