Paradise is empty today.
Upon death, the Spirit and the soul is raised to be in the presence of the Lord.
at the time of the Rapture our bodies are changed to receive a Glorified Body. 1 Corrinthians 15:51-57
2 Corinthians 5:8
King James Version
8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.
To facilitate our discussion...what do believe the difference is between the spirit and the soul...biblically. How does the bible define each?
