“In the Gospel according to Matthew, our Lord Jesus Christ says: ‘What is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul?’ (16:26). [...]The immortality of the soul is taught in the Old and New Testaments, in the works of the Church Fathers and other Ecclesiastical writers of the Orthodox Church, in its iconography and hymnography. I shall undertake to substantiate this assertion by having recourse to these sources, setting forth their relevant teachings.”
