Bible Question: where do we go when we die? cuz, sum people say that u go directly to heaven like Jesus said to the thief that was crucified next to him. Some people say that when u die u just sleep until Jesus comes back. |
Bible Answer: I wondered this too.. so I searched the scriptures and prayed a lot and here is what i came up with. Also about the verse where Jesus says that he will be with him that day we have to remember that Jesus didn't even go to heaven that day. And also there was no punctuation in the origianl writings of the scriptures. If this does not make sense ask me and i will clarify more. God Bless you in your search for truth. Satan has done his best to make it hard to find but if we search for it as hidden treasure we are sure to find it.
