Question: Pastor Kristen, according to Pastor Doug Batchelor, after death, individuals lose their sense of time and enter a state similar to sleep, where they don't know anything and don't dream either.

When they wake up, it will be the time of judgment. Is it true?

Answer: Let's take a look at revelation chapter 6.

When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of the word of God and the testimony they had maintained.

They called out in a loud voice, "How long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until you judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood?"

Then each of them was given a white robe, and they were told to wait a little longer, until the number of their fellow servants and brothers who were to be killed as they had been was completed.

These three verses make it clear that the souls of the dead are conscious, as they are crying out for justice. Obviously, the souls are not unconscious after death. They are given a white robe, and they are told to wait a little longer.
