thnetopsychism

== English == === Etymology === From ecclesiastical Ancient Greek θνητόψῡχος (thnētópsūkhos), from θνητός (thnētós, “mortal”) and ψῡχή (psūkhḗ, “soul”) +‎ -ism. === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /θnɛtəˈsaɪkɪz(ə)m/ === Noun === thnetopsychism (uncountable) The doctrine that when the body dies, the intangible soul and/or spirit also goes to sleep or in other words the person's consciousness ceases until the resurrection, and that the soul and/or spirit must be awoken and both are to be called back to life at the Day of Judgement. This was first recorded as taught by the Thnētopsȳchītæ, a third century sect of Christianity in Arabia, and is based on 1 Timothy 6:16, an epistolary doxology addressed to the God who alone has immortality. ==== Related terms ==== thnetopsychist
