The dead are incapable of talking, thinking or feeling. What does the Bible teach about what happes to us when we die?
Animals and people experience the same thing when they die as stated at Ecclesiates 3:19,20--"For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all is vanity. All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again."
Psalm 146:4--"His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish."
Eccl 9:5--"For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten." (This means that people still living cannot help those who die,they cannot reward them and eventually the memory of those who die are forgotten. They are not forgotten by God though for he holds all those who die in his memory and soon all will be resurrected back to life. The fact that we do not dwell on those who die is helpful so that death is not something thought about constantly, for if that were to happen, who could stand the pain of losing loved ones? God helps us to cope with our sadness this way. )
Eccl 9:10--"Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest."(This also helps us to see that the dead fell neither pain nor pleasure)
Death is likened to being asleep. Psalm 13:3--"Consider and hear me, O LORD my God: lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death." John 11:12-14--"Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well. Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep.Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead."
I hope this helps you to see what the Bible teaches regarding the dead.

Most my family has seen relatives and ghost, I guess it's in the blood. I seen more than I wanted to, but now I am getting use to it. Let see, my dog came back first day, my mother in law three times, my grandfather three times, neighbor kid, to many to list.

Once I brought home Lot's of stones and bricks from the woods to do a stone walls and a walk way, after I was done, I was asleep on the couch near the walkway, and I was awaking to to a presence floating over me, then a week went by, my wife called me outside, and said, there is some writing on this stone, Great I said, I brought home a grave stone, it read Tilly Jones 1880

A woman at work said to me that her son died two years ago, and her husband one year ago, and that they both came back at different times and said about the same thing, "not to worry, it's good where I am".

This is impossible, for in the book of Ecclesiastes, it clearly states the 12th chapter 7th verse saYs then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto god who gave it.

I was writing a letter to my Mom about my Grandmother
once. We had an argument the day she died. I told my
Mom I know Grandma forgives me, and right then, it felt like a
hand touched mine.
I know it as my Grandmas spirit.
