The soul has its senses and consequently it feels
The latter decision is not an act of overthrow, the decision of the soul at the time of its separation from the body, but rather of bringing about a union with the transformed, resurrected body with which the soul will continue to live forever. After separation, the soul has its senses and, consequently, feels, understands, and generally exercises all the energies of the soul (Revelation 6: 9-10; 7:15; 1 Peter 3:19; Hebrews 12:23; Luke 16: 27-28. The word "sleep", which denotes death, refers not to the soul but to the body. In Matthew 27:52, we read that many saints who had fallen asleep were raised. The final decision will take place on the second coming of Jesus Christ, a strong belief of the Church is recorded in the Symbol of Faith that "He (Jesus Christ) will come again with glory to judge the quick and the dead." The time of the Second Coming of Jesus Christ is not known and, according to Revelation, cannot be guessed by any means.
