Yeah, Payable On Death refers to Jesus death, and us facing up to how we have lived our lives upon our death.
As for the debate about them being a Christian band; It's true that they said they don't want to be defined as a Christian band. That's because of the limit that the Christian music industry seems to place on bands. And beside, in my opinion, defining a genre as Christian rock, or Christian rap, etc. for that matter, is like defining all the rap songs that are about drugs in one genre, and all the songs about sex in another. Christian is a theme, not a genre.
