    Funny how this guy conveniently leaves out his religious background or under what churches authority he is living and spreading his brand of theology? Does not the bible teach that we all must come under authority of someone .

    I'm guessing his authority is the Bible. Definitely not Mormon or JW.

    I emailed him to find out.

    There are other groups that believe the "soul sleep" view, including Adventist and probably some others that I don't know about. We'd have to know his views specifically on Jesus to determine whether he's a Mormon, JW or something else.

    In 1972 I died and I stood before the LORD. I seen a bright light and I ask the question where am I . I was told , you are standing before the LORD. I ask how do I know you are the LORD. A arm came out of the whiteness and there was a hole in His arm. Then the LORD ask me if I was ready to come home. Now with that said. I don't under stand why preachers say you sleep? I did not sleep. I went from earth to stand before the LORD in a trekking of an eye really a trekking of the eye.

    The phrase "you sleep" refers to the body which "sleeps" in a grave until Judgment Day when body and soul are reunited.

    What do you mean by "trekking"? This means "hiking." Do you mean"twinkling" of an eye?

    The way I see it is that we are a speck of time within eternity and eternity isn't confined to time in any way shape or form

    Hello to all:

    Remember the scripture that states " those who are Christ's do not have to worry about the Second Death. So if that be the case when one dies they are dead, not asleep. The dead in Christ shall be raised from the dead.
