We’ve told little kids for SO long, that when Gramma died, she went to be with Jesus; that we’ve conjured up doctrine to ‘PROVE’ IT.

So the soul is never absent from the body???

There is soul and spirit with each human. Paul taught the Thessalonians that God would bring the dead in Christ FROM HEAVEN when the Rapture event occurs. We may rightly infer from 1Thess4 that these brought with Christ will be given physical bodies and we who are alive and remain at the coming in the air will be transformed and caught up together with them into the clouds to meet the Lord in the air.

I have no idea.

People who tell me things about a human soul will have to have some pretty good EVIDENCE they are actually telling me truthful data.
