Do those who die in sin have life? Is life something we have on our own or is it from God. When a partient is maintained on life support systems and is then disconnected from that which keeps him alive, he dies. When we are separated from God, our life support source, we die. How can someone who is dead, separated from Life, be immortal?
Maybe you should ask yourself what does it mean to be dead (mortal).
They have "life" in existence, but not "life" in Christ. The Bible speaks of both concepts. I believe that the concept of "immortality", in the English, is much more associated with "life" in existence. You appear to have a different view. :)

God gives us our temporary physical life, as well as an immortal soul, which will go on forever either in Heaven or hell. The physical bodies we live in now do not go on forever. They are mortal.

You are mixing the physical with the spiritual. The Bible confirms that they do not work the same way. In Genesis, God specifically limits our physical years to "120". Yet, we are told over and over again that if we believe we will have eternal life. Obviously, two different things are being referenced.
