What happens when we die?

Question

I really dont want to have to reincartate back to earth.
With all the suffering here.

Answer 1

You lay dead in the grave until Jesus comes back to resurrect everyone.

Answer 2

First, your heart stops beating.
Then your diaphragm stops because it lacks oxygen.
The brain functions stop, and the doctor pronounces you dead.

As far as reincarnation, I happen to be a believer. There is a growing (but ignored by many) body of well researched evidence to show that such a thing happens.

Now, as far as all the suffering, I'll grant that there is. There is also much beauty and wonderful people. Without suffering, we wouldn't know joy. Nothing can exist without balance. If you never felt pain, hunger or sorrow, you wouldn't be able to appreciate freedom from pain, satiation or happiness to the extent to which you do.

The Chinese understand this well. The Yin Yang symbol shows that even in the white, there is a spot of black, recognizing that one (masculine or feminine, good or bad, positive or negative, etc) cannot exist without the other.

In our journeys, we need to experience things. Perhaps when we reach our enlightenment on this plane, things may be a little different, but I think that remembering the dark, as well as the light is a part of who we are ultimately meant to be.

Answer 3

With all the religious books available on this planet. Most probably, we'll be brought back to life. Different religions differ as to whether certain people will go to heaven or hell or come back to earth. Most, if not all, Abrahamaic religions tell us that we will go to heaven or hell according to our deeds on earth. Anyhow, suffering is not the only thing we experience on earth. When you fall in love, life suddenly becomes beautiful... Cheer up!

Answer 4

You stand before your own soul and depending on how much damage you did to it, you'll be put through "Hell" for an undetermined amount of time. The body and mind can want far different things than the soul and usually people do it. Dreaming is a really good way to get closer to your soul and then you'll see things in a different light.

Answer 5

Excuse me...anyone here have died before? I have no idea what will happen when I die...but if let me to chose,I prefer to vanish on the earth forever just like a bubble.

Answer 6

We are cremated, or buried, and the worms eat us up, we will transformed to another kind of material, inside the casket or whatever kind of burial we receive.
. I don't want to reincarnate either, but if that is so, like in other beliefs, their is nothing to do about it.
You were born, could you do anything about it? prevent it? did anybody ask you?
So the same, we all will have to take what comes, like it or not.

Answer 7

how are you going to talk about things you dont know? lmao. ghosts do exist. there for . when we die we die. we come back stay a ghost etc etc. how else would we be here? magic? oh man. people dont believe in god. no wonder nothing good ever happens to them.

Answer 8

Tony R's answer is mostly right. But the determining factor in whether you will stay in heaven or be sent to hell is whether Jesus is Lord of your life.

By the way, I don't believe in reincarnation.

Answer 9

There's no such thing as reincarnation. Or going to hell or going to heaven. When we die, it's going to be like a deep sleep. When Jesus resurrected Lazarus he termed it as awaking him from a deep sleep. That's all it is. When people die, they are unconscious completely, feeling nothing, hearing nothing and seeing nothing. That's why ghosts don't exist. :]

Answer 10

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!
