I would relate them to "the sea," or "waters" in
Scripture, and, noting that we only see dimly here,
say that they remain just potential. And I don't mean
that God "doesn't recognize" physical death so much as
that it just has a completely different meaning to Him,
is not important, like spiritual death is.
I say this because even angels can apparently
incarnate at will--I guess even fallen ones.
Christ's example, also, went to some lengths
to illuminate that our human def of physical death
is pretty naive. I'm even suspicious of "...just as it
is given for a man to die once."
