I voted none of the above, because the options were not enough. I would have preferred 'we are unconscious in the grave until the resurrection'. 'Soul' does not sleep, it ceases to exist as the life dies with the body at death (Numbers 23:10, Judges 16:30).

State of the Dead - First response to OneTrueChurch (2A) - YouTube
