Abstract

This thesis will be limited to the consideration of the immediate state of the believer after his death as this is illuminated by St. Paul in Phil. 1:23. Other Pauline passages will be studied as they relate to the verse in question. There will be no attempt to determine the state of the unbeliever since Paul does not treat this question.
