Here is another good answer to the question, “Do we go straight to heaven when we die?”
As we see in the video some branches of Christianity believe we go purgatory to be punished before we go to heaven or others believe we have a period of soul sleep when we die and we are awakened when Jesus returns.
The Bible teaches we go straight in to God’s presence when we die as Christians. This video from GotQuestions.org outlines this position with numerous Bible verses to back it up.
