Paul says Absent from the body,present with the Lord.So this theory says that when our physcial body dies our soul goes to be with the Lord.Meaning our souls are no longer on this earth but with the Lord.

Then we read that when Jesus comes back,God brings those who are asleep [DEAD] in Christ with him.

Logical reasoning.... Our souls must not be here on earth soul-sleeping because in scripture it states that God brings the souls with him.So if God brings them back with him,then they must be with the LORD like Paul claims,absent from the body,present with the Lord.

He will raise the dead and bring them back with him to there many mansions, in heaven.
