    Well, Jim is not entered in heaven yet.  After his death, his spirit 
separated his dead body.  He entered into the Spirit World.  Spirit World is 
the waiting place above earth.  All good and evil spirits have opportunity 
to learn gospel of God for the second chance since they had no chance on 
earth before they enter the judgement to determine how they are obidience to 
the commandment and doctrine of God.  Then they are in the resurrection 
process before entering heaven.
