I’ve recently attended many funerals and each time the people say that the person who died is in heaven. It’s a nice thought but when we look at the Scriptures they don’t talk about a person going to heaven when they die.
Instead, death is called a sleep. The Bible study guide below discusses different Bible texts on the state of the dead. It is not all-encompassing so if anyone has any questions, please feel free to send them along.
