Bible Question: how long is ones soul confined to a grave befor it goes to heaven or hell and is it resting or unsettled |
Bible Answer: Hello earlene. After answering the last question, I thought I should have continued. The soul is not confined in the grave. Note two passages: 1) In the account of the rich man and Lazarus (Luke 16:19-21) both men were taken to comfort and torment immediately after death. 2) Paul's teaching (2 Cor 5:6-8) tells us his expectation was to be with the Lord at death.
