God is real as you and I. Religiously and scientifically speaking, after death is LIFE.

Firstly - what is not real is to give God a form and name - we do not know whether he has a form and name. If he is omnipresent, omniscient and omnipotent why does he want a name or a form?
So what is really God. Can you give up your conditioned ideas of name and form for God?
How do you know that nothing exists after death?
Blacking out is not the same as death. If you had a bad blow on the head; or sometimes boxers black out. It is just loss of consciousness due to trauma.
We have to realize for ourselves -what is God. It has to be a personal realization without coming from any books or religious ideas.
Then we will know before we die as to what happens after death.

you'll know when you're dead. you'll either be in the paradise, Heaven, or the constant agony of Hell. you need faith. i felt like this too. you have to completely trust in the truth of God and Heaven. also in the real pain and never ending agony of Hell. it won't be a party. if you've ever been extremely uncomfortable and very, very hot, imagine that all the time. you would not adjust because the heat and pain would be excrusiating. however, this will not be what Hell is like. take the image you just imagined, pretty bad huh? anyway, take that image and multiply it by 3 million+. that is A TASTE of how terrible Hell will be. not a party, not temporary, forever and ever. Heaven is life without worry, pain, or anything else that it bad. i can't explain it. no one can. we won't stare into darkness forever. we'll be in Hell or Heaven. to answer your questions is order:
Yes, God is real. Never forget that. He always will be and always was.
After death is Heaven, the wonderful paradise (only to be reached by a life saved by God, which happens when one puts his complete faith in Jesus Christ) or Hell, the agony-ridden place of demons of which everyone, who isn't saved by the FREE gift of Jesus' poweful sacrafice, will spend their eternal life (by the way everyone will live forever, some in great Heaven,some in terrible Hell.)
Also, don't worry. God is real and so is Heaven and Hell. Don't ask whether they're real or not (they are), but how to get reassured of their reality. If you need help ask me.

First of the entire situations aren't all that infrequent. Secondly, this kind of deliverance might hardly ever be referred to as "superb". Thirdly, the permissive will of God and His omnipotence in no intelligent hinges on any doings of mankind. Fourth, why do you seem for any sort of instructing in what's patently nonsense? But of paramount value for any person who has afflicted to learn the Bible, is the lesson of the Crucifixion, the conviction and execution of God's possess blameless Son. The lesson is that we've got an terrible lengthy technique to move earlier than we're both civilized or holy, or could make any claims approximately justice even as busy with our possess self-justification.

I believe that when i die, i will have eternal life.
Here's how i got there.
1. Eternal life is a free gift which we can't earn.
Why? The bible says that God does not leave the guilty unpunished.
The wages of sin is death.
2. How good must I be?
The bible says "Be perfect as your heavenly father is perfect"
So we have to be perfect and free from sin. Sin is anything that we do apart from god's will. Bad things we do and the good we don't do. I may say "Well, i try to be a good person and i haven't killed anyone," but here's an example.
If i were making cookies, and i gather my ingredients and start to put them together in a bowl, and i have my Flour and Butter and sugar and eggs.
I put the flour in, and that's good and i put the butter and sugar and that's good. But then i get to my eggs and i crack the first one, and that's fine, and i crack my second one and that's fine, but i crack my third egg and there's this horrid smell and you can tell it's rotten. But i figure "The flour, butter, sugar, and even two out of my three eggs are good, so I'm gonna bake this anyway."
Would it be right for me to offer those cookies to anyone?
Of course not.
It's the same way with our lives. We may try to live mainly good lives, but the bible says that all have sinned and fallen short of god's standard.
3. So what then?
If I can't earn my way to heaven am I just screwed, or is there another way?
The bible says that God is loving and just, which means that he doesn't want to punish us, because he is loving. But, at the same time, he can't do nothing, because we have rejected him and sinned.
Here's another story: There was a man named Garcia. He lived in a communist country and was leading a group of rebels trying to overthrow the Government. One day, his right hand man came up to him and told him that someone was stealing food. Garcia was outraged, because food was in short supply. He gathered everyone together and declared that whoever was caught stealing food would be publicly whipped. For a few weeks nothing happened, but about a month later, Garcia's friend came up to him and told him that they had caught the person that was stealing the food, and that it was his mother. Garcia was heartbroken. If he whipped his elderly mother, she would probably die. The next day, everyone was gathered for the whipping, all wondering what Garcia would do. Garcia's right hand man proclaimed the crime and the punishment. The soldiers were about to whip Garcia's mother, but then Garcia intervened. He took off his own shirt and wrapped his arms around his mother and took the whipping. In the same way God sent Jesus to die for our sins.
This is what i want you to get: Jesus has paid the price for our sins. All you have to do to receive eternal life is believe this and trust in him alone to get you to heaven.
4. What if we're wrong?
This may be more relevant to your question.
What have we lost if we're wrong?
What if there is nothing but nothingness after death?
It's not like you've lost anything. Your life will end and nothing will happen, but You've given your life a purpose.
The more important question is What if we're right and you haven't come to know your ticket to heaven? What happens if you put off Jesus for just 1 day too long? I for one am not taking that chance.

Who has come back, or come from heaven to tell us what death is like.
The only one that I know is Jesus.
John 3:13-15
3 No one has ever gone into heaven except the one who came from heaven-the Son of Man. 14 Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the desert, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, 15 that everyone who believes in him may have eternal life.
(from New International Version)

Once dead the Bible describes it as "sleep". Waiting till God calls us so that we can be judged based on the things we've done in life.
And Yes. God is more real than you and me; but cant be tested the way scientist want to test Him.

They would have told you that they revived you. As to being a Good Christian what do you mean?
You do realize it is not about being "good" it is about communing with your creator, savior, lord, love. Being with Him. He will ease your fears.
