Plotinus on Souls and resurrection

St. Paul: “This is what I’m saying, brothers and sisters: Flesh and blood can’t inherit God’s kingdom. Something that rots can’t inherit something that doesn’t decay” (CEB 1 Cor. 15:50).
Writing in the second century CE, Plotinus was quoting and agreeing with Paul: “The Soul exists in its own right; it neither comes into existence nor perishes. It is itself the principle of life, the ‘one and simple activity in living,’ and as such it is indestructible. … Resurrection, says Plotinus explicitly, is an awakening from the body, not with the body. Flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God, neither can corruption inherit incorruption. …There are no new Souls—all have existed from eternity…But there are new bodies…” (The Philosophy of Plotinus by William Ralph Inge, “The Immortality of the Soul.”)
