Baptists, at least Southern Baptists, do not believe in soul sleep. When Jesus spoke to the thief on the cross He told him that he would be with Him TODAY, not some distant time in the future. Baptists understand the use of the word "sleep" in the New Testament as a euphemism for death. When Paul was contemplating what became of one at death, he wrote that to be absent from the body (dead) was to be with Christ. There is no intermediate step between death and being with Christ.
Yes they do i went to a assemblies of God for 2 years till God directed me out of the church. There a cult one sign of a cult is where they believe in soul sleeping personally what would be the point of salvation if all you do is sleep till the second coming. i don't think Jesus would be that cruel making people wait till the second because he don't even know when that day is. because the Jesus i know is love not torment stay away from the pennecostals no matter what branch they are a penncostal is a penncostal they all believe the samething i'm Baptist now and i haven't felt this close to God over 2 years.
If you believe that the soul is immortal, that means that it lasts forever, and is therefore infinite in terms of its length of existence.
People are not immortal - they will die eventually. Most religions believe that people have a part (a soul) that is immortal, but this can't really be proved or disproved easily
I am a Buddhist and I must say that those of my fellow Buddhists who believe this are incorrect. There is an immortal soul regardless of what you believe. You, me, and all materials in every direction make up the expanding and timeless Cosmic Conciousness. I could go on. . .
Hinduism believes in reincarnation. The believe that the soul is immortal and will be born again in another body in due time.
Sikhs believe in the cycle of birth and death, with the soul continuing to be reborn until it merges with the divine. They believe that death is a natural part of the cycle of life and should be accepted with grace and without fear. Sikhs also place importance on remembering and honoring the deceased through prayers and community service.
I do not believe you will find the actual phrase 'immortal soul' in the Bible. In fact, some sects say the soul is not immortal and there is no life between physical death and 'the resurrection of the body' on judgment day.Another answer:The phrase "immortal soul" does not appear in the Bible. However, between the promise of eternal life for the faithful believer (John 3:16) and the question asked by Jesus in Matthew 16:26 (For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?), the Bible clearly teaches that the soul of man IS immortal, and that its ultimate disposition is solely in the hands of God.Ecclesiastes 12:7 - Then the dust will return to the earth as it was, And the spirit will return to God who gave it.Matthew 10:28 - And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.[Quotes from NKJV]

He hoped this would make him immortal.
Certainly not on this Earth. Most religions, however, believe there is some sort of afterlife - if this is true, we have an immortal soul, that will continue living after our body is dead.

There is no such thing as a soul.
Subjective to a person's point of view. There are many who think the soul lives on after death and goes somewhere or turns into something. There are others that believe the soul is the person themselves and simply ceases to exist after death. Even Christian denominations are divided on what the bible actually teaches on the soul. Either way, most denominations believe that there is life after death in some form. Some believe the soul is immortal while some believe the bible says the soul dies, but God will resurrect the dead at some point in time, either to heaven or earth.
