2 Corinthians 5:6-8 (KJV)
[SUP]6 [/SUP] Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord:
[SUP]7 [/SUP] (For we walk by faith, not by sight

I read the article but it didn't answer about being with the Lord when we die.....plus there are so many people having experiences of being in heaven,..like little kids who are not bias.......sorry..can't see it..

"The Word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing as far as the division of soul (psuche) and spirit (pneuma), of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart" (Heb. 4:12). And the apostle Paul prayed for the Thessalonian Christians that "the God of peace Himself might sanctify them entirely; and their spirit (pneuma) and soul (psuche) and body (soma) might be preserved complete, without blame at the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ" (1 Thess. 5:23). Psuche is the Greek word from which we get the English words "psyche," "psychology" etc.
