As for the concept of the soul, if it is immortal than what happens to it after death? And when you say that it's part of god, are you saying that when you die, you'll soul will return to be united with god? That rings a bell with Mormonism I think.
Does it? Oops! Smile

Yeah I stayed away from that exact phrase. I don't think it's be correct, although I don't know how.

I don't think the journey of the soul has much relevance. The relevance is that it helps define what it is.

Jesus came to die and rise again so that we may live life to the full, by accepting his forgiveness and so on. What of the people who never choose to believe? What punishment is there (if any) for their unforgiven sins?
Punishment for doing bad stuff is the opposite of life in it's fullness. Think of following Christ's example as full on life, warts and all. Doing the opposite prevents you enjoying the moment. It's counter productive, negative, paralyzing.
