Acts 24:15

“Having hope toward God, which they themselves accept, that there shall be a resurrection both of the just and the unjust.” Here we see the word heresy again occurring, which means separation, and its legitimate application to all the followers of Jesus is here recognized by Paul. The Holy Ghost is the Spirit of the Lord Jesus (Acts 16:6 and Romans 8:9) sent into the world not only as the Revelator but the Successor of our risen Lord (John 14:16). The holiness movement, like all preceding revivals, is simply a departure from the fallen, dead, despiritualized and degospelized ecclesiasticisms in order to follow Jesus. Hence it is heresy from their standpoint, just as primitive Christianity was heresy from the attitude of fallen Judaism. Here we see a clear repetition of some modern heresies in reference to the annihilation of the wicked, as we see here that even their bodies will be raised into immortality, as well as those of the righteous in the general resurrection. God in the beginning created Adam immortal. Though he was free to sin and fall, his immortality, a necessary constituent of his humanity, is nonforfeitable, since such forfeiture would dehumanize, i. e., brutalize, him.
