1 | Where do our souls go when we die? | 2 Cor 5:8 | Remdo | 111136 | ||
When we die, do our souls go immediately to heaven, or do they go to sleep, until Christ returns? I was reading 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18. This confuses me a bit because here it talks about the dead in Christ rising first. If our souls are in heaven, what purpose is there to raise a dead body? I have heard some say that our souls just go to sleep, rather than going directly to heaven. | ||||||
2 | Where do our souls go when we die? | 2 Cor 5:8 | Emmaus | 111137 | ||
2 Cor 5:6 Therefore, being always of good courage, and knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord-- 2 Cor 5:8 we are of good courage, I say, and prefer rather to be absent from the body and to be at home with the Lord. We will be integrally perfected, not separately as I understand and see it. Our redemption is not completed until the resurrection of the body we again become whole and cleansed of all sin as God originally created us to be. Cor 15:12 Now if Christ is preached, that He has been raised from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? 1 Cor 15:13 But if there is no resurrection of the dead, not even Christ has been raised; 1 Cor 15:14 and if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is vain, your faith also is vain. 1 Cor 15:15 Moreover we are even found to be false witnesses of God, because we testified against God that He raised Christ, whom He did not raise, if in fact the dead are not raised. 1 Cor 15:16 For if the dead are not raised, not even Christ has been raised; 1 Cor 15:17 and if Christ has not been raised, your faith is worthless; you are still in your sins. 1 Cor 15:18 Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. 1 Cor 15:19 If we have hoped in Christ in this life only, we are of all men most to be pitied. |
