Answer 1

What happens to the SOUL after death? It's dead! It must be resurrected to eternal life to live on. If not to eternal life, then it ceases to exist by fire.

Answer 2

Your soul is the union of your body, your consience, and what the Bible calls the breath of life. In other words you are a living soul.

If you die there is no ethereal body that detaches from you with its own consience. You simply cease to exist or as the Bible calls it you enter into a sleep.

The concept of immortality of the soul has many christians confused as people think that even the people that did not attained salvation through Jesus will be burning in hell for all eternity.

What the Bible teaches is that Jesus will come back, all the dead in Jesus will resurrect and the ones living will be transformed into incorruptible bodies.

1 Cor. 15:
51Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed— 52in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. 53For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality. 54When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: "Death has been swallowed up in victory."[e]

Answer 3

That assumes there is such a thing as a "soul." I know many people assume the existance of a "soul" and talk about "the soul," but the truth is, there is no evidence that such a thing exists. And there's no need for a soul in order to understand how the human organism works or how human consciousness works. It's an artifact of religious tradition.

Why do you ask? Do you think people have experience or valid information about what happens "after death'? Are you ready to believe anything that meets your needs?

Answer 4

If your not confused by now you will be. You will get alot of different answers here. There are people from every religion in here who have their own beliefs on what happens to the soul after death. So i'm going to leave out my answer. Good luck.
Take care & have a nice day.

Answer 5

The Bible called Adam a living soul. The body is the soul.
The immortal soul teaching of something that lives on after death is not biblical and is an apostate story.

Answer 6

When the soul abandons the body takes a new one. This is called the cycle of birth and death or reincarnation.

Answer 7

I believe the soul and spirit go to a "holding place" . Later the soul and spirit are united with a new body.

Answer 8

The Right to Enter Paradise

Death is inevitable. The thief on the cross knew when his would occur, but we can not predict our own. After his death, the crucified criminal went to live in paradise with Jesus. Some of us will also live eternally in God's presence. But others will experience everlasting torment, forever separated from Him.
If we receive Jesus as our Savior, our penalty for sin is paid. We are adopted into God's family, and Heaven is our eternal home. If we reject Jesus, we remain alienated from the Lord and under condemnation for our sin. We are destined to experience eternal judgment. God won't accept any of man's excuses because there is no acceptable defense for unbelief. (Acts 4:12)
Become part of God's family today. Acknowledge your sinfulness, and express your faith in these words:
"God, I have sinned against You. (Romans 3:23) I've followed my own way and refused to give You the right to rule in my life. (Romans 3:10-12) I recognize I am separated from You and cannot rescue myself. I do believe that Jesus Christ is Your Son. I accept the truth of the Scriptures? that His death on the cross paid my sin-debt in full. (1 Corinthians 15:3-4) And I ask You to forgive me of my sins. (1 John 1:9) By faith, I receive You, Lord Jesus, as my personal Savior from this moment on."
If you just spoke those words to God, then, like the thief on the cross, you have received salvation? a gift of God's grace. The heavenly Father welcomes every person who comes to Him through His Son, regardless of background, age, or current situation. Through Jesus, the right to enter paradise is yours!

Answer 9

For a born-again Christian, to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. 2 Corinthians 5:8

Answer 10

A lot of people think you go to heaven or hell but that goes against what the bible says. the bible says that when you die you are put to rest. you go into a waiting period until judgment day. Once judgment day comes if you are saved you go to heaven if you weren't you go to hell.
