Where in the Bible does it say when Christians die, we go to sleep? It doesn't. Jesus was speaking metaphorically. Otherwise, there are 100's of millions, if...

"The requirement for salvation has always been faith." That's true. It's also true that we can't produce our own faith. Abraham didn't wake up one morning...
