I posted this topic on another form, and over there someone brought up the idea that a person is kept alive in a hospital until the organs can be harvested. This I would have a problem with because the spirit and soul cannot leave the body until the body dies therefore “we” would be stuck and held captive in a physical body that was no longer of any use instead of being able to receive our inheritance in heaven

Ummm... where to start... well scientifically I believe that death is a spectrum and brain death and body death are different... Even so the delay would not be more than a few hours for organ harvest and I'm good with that to have the chance to give someone else more time on wonderful planet earth.

Theologically I don't don't really ascribe to the 'absent from the body, present with the Lord' thing... I believe we wait for the resurection and judgement... but I'm certainly not saying I have all the answers on that.
