I mean, raiden did revive once, and the netherrealmers in deception ( who talk backwards) say that gods re-form after a while. So, shouldn't he revive after Armageddon. Raiden obviously didn't do it to save himself. Once Shao Kahn is fighting Raiden in the intro of MK9, nearly everyone else that was in that game is most likely dead. He went back to try to stop things like the elder Sub-Zero's death and Smoke's cyberization (which lead to Noob-Saibot and Noob-Smoke) but ended up making things worse... but THEN Earthrealm's warriors created a new generation that would be able to keep fighting even if the original characters all die. I don't know about the Deception thing though (the wiki doesn't have the reversed messages so I had to use a possibly incomplete guide which didn't mention anything about that), I only know that the Elder Gods are immortal (which means Shinnok will experience all fatalities in full and still be alive afterwards!).
