The only thing you can prove on this is your body will die. As of your spirit or soul, best thought or what ever you feel is the answer. If you look at the laws of nature, there might be something to reincarantion, but then again we don't know everything about nature. Take for example the way atoms can work, something science hasn't been fully able to crack. It was reported ( don't have the source ) that atoms have been know to disapear and then come back. Where exactly did the atom go? It didn't actually loose appearance, it went somewhere else leading scientists into the question is there more dimensions than the 4 we know of. They only have theories, but even in nature when you look at the smallest thing possible you can see something enlightening. So if matter here, matter being the atom, can move to a new dimension so to speak, then why couldn't a soul? You have to believe in a soul or spirit for reincarnation, so why can't you be reincarnated in a heaven type place, or hell for that matter. It's all about of exsistence in theory, heaven being a realm or dimension, summer land or purgatory being another, and we are here learning and living untill we ourselves disapear and go somewhere else just like the itty bitty atoms.

According to the Bible, we are spirits with souls(mind, will & emotion) who dwell in bodies. When our body dies, our spirit and soul either go to be with the Lord, or to hades. See Luke 16, the rich man and Lazarus. The former realm referred to as Abraham's bosom was transferred to Paradise with the resurrection. It is appointed unto man once to die, and after this the judgment (Hebrews 9:27). You can read Revelation 20 regarding the future judgment and something called the "second death".

Jesus said that those who have placed their faith in Him will never die (in a fearful sense). They are conveyed by an angel to heaven with new spiritual bodies, that will somehow be recognizable by those who knew us. If people only read the Bible, instead of guessing what it says, they would be blessed.

This is a question we've been asking ourselves since the dawn of time. I don't beleive anyone has a definitive answer yet because, apparently, when we die we are unable to do interact with people that are still alive or "if" we do reincarnate, we seem to have no memories of our previous life.

This question, so far, escapes science, philosophers and even religions don't have the arguments to prove anything.

So, it's up to what you want to beleive.

In order to answer this question, one must have the ability to peer into and beyond "the veil" to see what happens when our friends and relatives "cross over." Why are there so many good psychics nowadays, trying to tell us that our bygone loved ones miss us, and want us to take the time to listen to them, so we will not be so lonely for them? It's great fun and oh so simple to do. Love makes it easy to hear and be heard. You don't have to guess-hear, fabricate or wish-hear. You really can hear and even see beyond this so-called veil of separation between the living and the dead. T'aint hard, try it, you'll see. Love lives in all realms simutaneously. It comes and goes easily. It's not afraid to die because it knows death is not real--we come again and again and again. It's not hard to remember how to do that either. I have lots of past life memory, and it's not just "guess work" either. I am Guided in my discovery. It's fun to have a whole mind that goes backward in time, focuses on today, yet has the ability to also read the future. All these gifts come from God. Sometimes people close their hearts to memory of past lives because they're having too much fun in the now. Yet I'm someone who wants it all. I'm just curious, deeply hungry for all of Life's Truth, even if it takes me into past lives of pain, where I volunteered to study insane rulers like Hitler, Napolean and Bloody Mary. That's how you learn who they really are come again as well, and why they will never live here or anywhere ever again. I am told that it is over for them and their kind... permanently!!!

The world enlarges us, as we go forward in time. We all feel the joy of progressing into the future and even in the now. You bet we are done with past lives of horror. Good for us who lived forever kind.

Yes, indeed, we do die. Your reference to death and rebirth is the concept of "reincarnation", which is a hypothesis never proven by science to be factual. It is a precept from Eastern Mysticism having its origin in the death and rebirth of the “great solar (stellar) deities”, being “stellar-metamorphosis” when a star undergoes different stages in its lifecycle. For example, our Sun has its current state as a G-2 class star; it will deplete its hydrogen and "reincarnate" into a helium-burning Red Giant Star; then it will deplete its helium and "reincarnate" into a White Dwarf Star. Research is beginning to indicate that our current Sun was not our original star, but rather a Blue Supergiant five times the mass of our Sun was our original star. Obviously, it is this “missing star” that had undergone “reincarnation” of its stellar cycles, and was the stellar deity of which reincarnation had originated from. Because Man worshiped and revered this stellar deity, and tends to "emulate" the “gods”, consequently, the concept of "reincarnation" was applied to human life in “theoretical emulation”. However, in reality reincarnation for humans simply does not and has never occurred, nor does it even exist. Christ Jesus stated, "It is appointed onto man to live once and die once."

Sad enough as it is to say,yes we do all die,now what ever happens to our souls I don't think anyone living would be able to give you a most accurate answer,and I don't want to be the one who finds the true answer for you either(LOL)

sounds like a religious question. Our bodies die, but our spirits live. After the resurrection, our bodies will become perfect and rejoin our spirit--never again to be separated.

This is a very big question and it needs a very big answer. I all depends on what you beleve. For instance chritians beleve you go up to heaven after you die. Their just isn't enough space here to put all the views tho so i will put myn.

However personally i think we die are buried and then all we do is push up the worms.

Only if you "actually" live do you actually die, but if you have an eternal form now, why would you need different bodies.

I believe the soul is immortal and the body is just a tool we use to experience physical reality in this incarnation. I also believe that earth is not the only playground. Cheers.
