Where does the soul go when one dies?

Question

What happens when you die?

Answer 1

Heaven, and i don't think anybody knows what happens when you die, since nobody has come back to tell us what it's like.

Answer 2

What happens when you die is your body goes into the ground in a sleep-like state with no dreams. You do not feel anything, you are not alive in any sense. Your soul dies with you. Your soul is your living breathing body, wild animals are also known as living souls, but they are not resurrected. Your spirit returns to the creator, Jehovah God. You are in his memory and there is a hope of being resurrected.

Answer 3

Christians have a totally wrong idea of that the 'soul' is. For the Jews of that time... including Jesus... the 'soul' was an enveloping emanation from the godhead that resulted from the community's relationship with god. The soul as a component of a human being (Christian view) is an artifact of Greek thinking on 'dualism'... which was incorporated into Christian dogma and lore by Gentile theologians, who were ignorant of Jewish (and Jesus') concept of 'soul'.

Everyone's worries about what happens to their personal 'soul' are of no consequence... it does not exist.

Answer 4

Back to the one whom created it. It is called the Rapture. There is a bed that they can put people on when they are dieing. When placed on the bed a persons body weighs a certain weigh. How ever when the person passes on and take their last breath. 21 grams are always missing. I believe this to be the soul.

Answer 5

It either goes to it's creator in heaven or to hell, A temporary place..then after judgement day, where everyone that has ever lived will be judged by God. Then they will go to an even worser place!!! into the lake of fire...and there have been reports of people dying for a few seconds and returning to life, some claim they saw angels coming for them, some say they saw demons, i remember i heard on tv saying that one man saw a tunnel, and at the end of the tunnel he saw a man, reaching out to him, and there was a bunch of light behind him, cant say it wasnt Jesus

Answer 6

Most soul goes to Heaven, some are stuck here on earth seeking there way out, some fine Hell. some come back from Heaven to love ones, or to give a message of some sort.

Answer 7

My belief is that there is an in between point between earth and judgement. This in between point is where your soul resides until the second coming/resurrection/judgement day. Here life (or afterlife in this case) would be somewhat a prejudgement where some people will view it as paradise (those who made the right choices in life) and some will view it more like prison (those who sinned) however they still have a chance here to listen to teachers from the more paradise side and can still seek forgiveness, they can also join different churches here as these teachers will be missionaries. When the second coming comes then those in the spirit world (spirit prison/paradise) will be resurrected and those still on the earth will either die or be translated in "the blink of an eye". this is what is meant when it is said that no person of flesh and blood can inherit the kingdom of heaven. It simply means we have to overcome death as Jesus did. Being born again of the spirit is baptism by COMPLETE immersion for the remission of yours sins followed by the laying on of hands for the gift of the holy ghost by someone ordained by God to give such a gift. Think logically about it if your a christian and you belief in God the creator and in his son Jesus Christ the savior and redeemer of all the world and in in the lords messenger, the holy spirit. Then all you have to do is look at the life of Christ - birth by the womb of an earthly mother to receive a body of flesh and blood, baptism by immmersion at which time a dove flew out of the heavens (doves in the scriptures represent the holy spirit), set up the church of Jesus Christ with himself as the prophet and revelator, had twelve apostles (hence Christ's true church must have a modern day prophet, seer, and revelator and twelve apostles), bled form every pore so that men might have the gift of repentance, died on the cross, and was resurrected so that men might overcome the bound of death. notice that when he died his spirit left the body at that time He even Jesus Christ went to the spirit world, then he came back and took up his body again as a translated individual. other translated individuals include Moses, City of Enoch, Elijah just to name a few these would be closer to examples of being translated in the blink of an eye as they never endure the pains of death. If your o.k. with that answer then you should also know I believe in three seperate parts of heaven and outer darkness (comparable to hell in the traditional sense), however my definition of hell is the seperation from God and in all but one of the three kingdoms on heaven you are separated from him. dont get me wrong though even the worst of the three is way better than earth life as we know it. just in case your worried about outer darkness where you would be ruled by the devil, you cant get there unless you see an angel, God, or Jesus Christ and then deny it and sin directly against them (ex. Cain).

Answer 8

Nobody knows what will happen to the soul when a person dies. It all depends on which religion you follow.

Answer 9

Most christians believe you just die until Jesus comes back, Hes supposed to come from the East, thats why christian cemetaries bury you facing East so you'll be facing him when your risen from your grave, How ever I'm a christian and I believe in Jesus Christ, however I do not believe my soul will remain in a grave until resurection comes, Just as Jesus said to his deciples,"THE KINGDOM I TELL YOU ABOUT IS WITH IN EACH OF YOU" My soul will depart this shell which was given me before I was born into it with plans to "Learn" Love, kindness, compassion, and to complete other "PLANS" that God is requireing me to accomplish before I am able to leave this excursion into this Human experience, and I will have to repeat this over and over until I get it right or am able to accomplish the task or lesson God is requireing me to learn, It may be something as simple as saving a life or giving advice to another, which influences their lives, I cured a man of "Emphysema" in ark 13 yrs ago with an herbal formula I made but that alone seems to have not been my only task in my "LIFES PLAN" My soul will last forever and when I leave this body,it may chose to reincarnate again or remain on the other side. I think I may have died in the Civil war in my last life but I may be incorect, Our souls NEVER DIE UNLESS YOU TURN YOUR BACK ON GOD, ALHA, BUDDA, or what ever you call HIM. We will see our loved ones again, and they never leave us, Its just that they can see us but we can't see them since the vibration of your life force is so different than theirs, Just as "Danion Brinkley"says "WE ARE SOULS HAVING A HUMAN EXPERIENCE" NOT HUMANS HAVEING A HUMAN EXPERIENCE"!

Answer 10

It returns to the spiritual dimension where we all reside as souls to resume our "real" lives in spiritual form. This physical life is merely an illusion. We choose to experience it because of its sheer level of difficulty and the opportunity it gives us to expedite the evolution of our souls to deeper understanding of God and ultimate truth.
