What happens when you die?

Answer 1

We don't know yet but we are all going to find out!

Answer 2

When you die there are many 'stages' your consciousness goes through. Psychologically speaking, these are dreamlike states filled with visions that are dependent on your mental condition at the time of your death.

Religions, or other belief systems, have no real meaning here other than how they influenced your mental condition while you were alive.

Some religions, or belief systems, that accurately explain the death process may also ready your mind and help guide you through these stages in a positive way.

After these dream stages (some of which are beautiful some awful, again depending on the state of mind... this is where the ideas of 'Heaven' and 'Hell' come from) you will enter another body and the cycle of rebirth continues unless you have become enlightened, then the rebirth cycle stops.

Answer 3

I experienced an out of body thing.
I was about 18 or 19 and felt tired in the middle of the day so i went to my room where i layed down. at this point in life my mother had me living in the den downstairs ajacent to the dining room. When i closed my eyes i heard someone knocking at the door, so i struggled to get out of bed and walked into the dining room where I looked at the back door and there saw an ANGEL standing above the ground. all i could see of his face was a great big smile. Something whispered in my ear. so I waved my hand and said go away to the angel and went back to bed and layed down. I heard the knock at the door AGAIN and opened my eyes and had to FORCE myself to start breathing! apparantly I had stopped breathing, it happens commonly now these days but not that often, When i got up out of bed I realized what i had seen and went to the back door where a 13 year old was knocking at the door looking a mutual freind.
Later on I heard someone give a TALK in the LDS church and he defined that death is LIKE walking from one room to another.
Personally that couldnt have been MORE Of a coincidence.

Answer 4

After death comes judgement.

That is the reason why the Bible tells us, "...it is appointed for men to die once and after this comes judgment." Hebrews 9: 27

The moment a person dies physically, the soul departs the body and goes either into the presence of God or into hell to await the final day of judgment.

Answer 5

Your soul waits in the grave for judgement day. No, you don't go straight to heaven, no the dead don't walk the earth.

If you are praying to a saint in heaven, you are mistaken.

If you think your loved one is in heaven right now, you are mistaken.

Answer 6

Actually when people die; they're asleep in the grave. Death is called a sleep (Matt.9:24; John 11:11; 1Cor.15:51; 1Thess.5:10).
The spirit goes back to God that gave it!(Eccles.12:7; Psalm 146:4)


The Bible describes three hells.

SHEOL OR HADES, THE FIRST HELL
The first term in Greek and Hebrew means the grave. It's the grave where the dead await the resurrection.
GENESIS 37:35---I SHALL GO DOWN INTO THE GRAVE.
PROVERBS 15:11--HELL & DESTRUCTION ARE BEFORE THE LORD.
ECCLES.9:10---NO WORK...OR KNOWLEDGE...IN THE GRAVE,
MATT.11:23---WILL BE BROUGHT DOWN TO HADES
1COR.15:55---O HADES, WHERE IS YOUR VICTORY

GEHENNA, THE SECOND HELL
The second term in New Testament means the place of fiery destruction of the wicked.
MATT.5:22--...BE IN DANGER OF HELL FIRE
MATT.10:28--TO DESTROY BOTH BODY AND SOUL IN HELL

TARTAROO, THE THIRD HELL
This third term is only used once and refers to the place of restraint where the demon spirits were placed following the rebellion against God.
2PETER 2:4---BUT CAST THEM DOWN TO HELL.

THE THREE HEAVENS
There's 3 heavens.

First Heaven = This is also called the firmament or expanse of heaven. It is the heaven where the birds fly and where the clouds give rain. (Gen.1:26; 2:20; 8:2 & 1Kings 18:45)

Second Heaven = This refers to outerspace where the sun, moon and stars can be found. (Gen.22:17 & Exodus 32:13 & Joshua 10:13)

Third Heaven = The Apostle Paul tells us that the heaven of God's abode is the "third heaven." In the Old Testament this is often designated by the phrase "the heaven of heavens." (Joshua 2:11 & Psalms 11:4 & 2Corinthians 12:2 equated with v.4 = paradise)

THERE ARE TWO KINGDOMS: ONE ON EARTH AND THE OTHER ONE COMING DOWN FROM HEAVEN.

The 1st Kingdom of Heaven =
DAN.7:27 = "AND THE KINGDOM AND DOMINION, AND THE GREATNESS OF THE KINGDOM UNDER THE WHOLE HEAVEN, SHALL BE GIVEN TO THE PEOPLE OF THE SAINTS OF THE MOST HIGH, WHOSE KINGDOM IS AN EVERLASTING KINGDOM, AND ALL DOMINION SHALL SERVE AND OBEY HIM."
REV.5:10 = "AND HAST MADE US UNTO OUR GOD KINGS AND PRIESTS: AND WE SHALL REIGN ON THE EARTH."

The 2nd kingdom of Heaven =
AFTER 1,000 YEARS = A NEW HEAVEN AND NEW EARTH-HOLY CITY COMING DOWN FROM HEAVEN = REV.21:1-4; ISAIAH 65:17-25; 66:1,22 AND ETC.

SO HERE'S WHAT WE'RE GOING TO DO---
ISAIAH 66:21; ZECH.14:9-11 = "BUILD HOUSES, PLANT VINEYARDS, EAT VINEYARDS"
ISAIAH 66:23; ZECH.14:16-19 = "WORSHIP FROM ONE NEW MOON TO ANOTHER AS ONE SABBATH TO ANOTHER"
JESUS WILL BE GIVING CITIES TO THE SAINTS INWHICH THEY WILL BE TEACHING OTHERS THE TRUE MESSAGE OF THE BIBLE = MATT.25:14-23; EZEKIEL 36:10,33; LUKE 13:26; ISAIAH 61:4
WE WON'T MARRY OR BE GIVEN UNTO MARRIAGE = MATT.22:30
BOYS AND GIRLS WILL BE PLAYING IN THE STREETS = ZECHARIAH 8:4-5,8
MEEK SHALL INHERIT THE EARTH = PSALM 37:9-11; MATT.5:5; REV.5:10

Answer 7

The same thing that happened to Jesus and to Lazarus. You sleep in death - non-existent until and unless you are resurrected. Death is not the opposite of life. Death is the absence of life.

Answer 8

If you live a holy and righteous life and accept Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior, you enter into the kingdom of heaven. If you do not accept him you burn for all of eternity in fire and brimstone.
