Over and over we are told that when we die our spirit is alive in Heaven with eternal life and its only the body that will gain eternal life at the second coming.
Did Paul believe this?
1: It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife.
2: And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.
3: For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed,
4: In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,
5: To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that
the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. 1 Cor. 5:1-5
When will the spirit be saved? As soon as we die?
Paul says in the
DAY OF THE LORD JESUS!
