I didn't say what the cause had to be. It could be anything! But it has to be something, and that's the only point I've been making.

His faith had nothing to do with his wife's faith. In fact, when his wife was in ministry he was a plumber. His ministry and gifting really did not come into manifestation until after her death.
Dealing with the cause...why can't we just go when our time is done? Why can't the cause be that our spirit left our physical body? Why do we have to believe that some form of event such as sickness, which was paid by the blood, or an accident which we have been told that we can have divine protection (psalms 91) or some other thing that operates because of sin must thrust us into heaven. Why don't we believe that Jesus made a way for us to live long, healthy, and prosperous as we go about establishing His covenant in the earth?

Because we live in the real world. There is a cause for death. God made us human, and in order to die, something has to go wrong with our body in some way. I don't know why it has to be that way, but I do know that it has to be that way.
And it doesn't have to be because of sin. Life happens. So does death.
