In the Holy Scriptures of the Bible, there are only two place you can go when you die. If you have trusted in what the Lord Jesus Christ did on the cross for you then you will spend eternity in the heavens. Christ died for our sins, He was buried and took our sins away and He rose again for our justification. 2 Corinthians 5: 8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. If you reject what the Lord Jesus Christ did for you then when you die you will go to hell and then stand at the White Throne Judgment and be judged and cast into the Lake of Fire forever. Revelation 20: 11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. Revelation 20: 12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. Revelation 20: 13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. Revelation 20: 14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. Revelation 20: 15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. There is no re-incarnation. You will not return as some other animal. Trust Christ.

DEATH AND HELL
Psa.23:4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the SHADOW of death, I will fear no evil: for
Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me.
Flesh death of the body is a SHADOW of death, a silhouette or likeness of the second death.
Heb.9:27 And as it is appointed unto men ONCE to die, but after this the judgment:
If you are already dead why then after this the judgment?
Matt.10:28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather
fear Him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
Fear (revere) God Who can destroy both soul and spiritual body, that is second death.
I Cor.15:44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and
there is a spiritual body.
There is a flesh body and a spiritual body.
II Cor.5:6 Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: II Cor.5:7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:) II Cor.5:8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.
Absent from the flesh body, present with the Lord.
Ecc.12:6 Or ever the silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl be broken, or the pitcher be broken at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern. Ecc.12:7 Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God Who gave it.
The spiritual body and soul return to God.
I Cor.15:54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall
have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is
swallowed up in victory.
The second death is what Christ paid the price for. Until the mortal puts on immortality he is still considered dead or liable to die the second death.
Ezek.18:4 Behold, all souls are Mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is Mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die.
All souls are God’s. The verdict for sin is the second death.
Heb.2:14 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, He also Himself likewise took part of the same; that through death He might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;
God through flesh death paid the price for the second death. Satan already sentenced to the second death has been defeated. Satan can’t say we deserve the same verdict.
Rev.2:11 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that
overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.
Those who overcome Satan become immortal, the first resurrection.
Rev.20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. Rev 20:5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
The rest of the dead, that is mortal souls, missed the first resurrection, that is immortality, until the thousand years are finished.
Rev 20:6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with Him a thousand years.
A thousand years, a time of teaching by those who had part in the first resurrection.
Rev.20:11 And I saw a great white throne, and Him that sat on it, from Whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. Rev.20:12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
The dead, that is mortal souls.
Rev.20:13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. Rev.20:14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
Don’t read over that. Death, that is Satan, and hell, that is separation from God, were cast into the lake fire, the second death.
Rev.20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
The second death.

Sorry, saving that for later.
God has this really long list of things I need to do, plus there's the Torah and the 613 commandments.
If God wanted me to worry about that, I would have some indicators.

Heaven will be a thousand times more beautiful than earth. I think that we have the potential to be gods and will make our own earths someday.

1jo 3:1 Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.
1jo 3:2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
