Do you go to heaven when you die?
NO!
The question of death is closely tied to creation. How were we created? GEN.2:7
"AND THE LORD GOD FORMED MAN OF THE DUST OF THE GROUND, AND BREATHED INTO HIS NOSTRILS THE BREATH OF LIFE, AND MAN BECAME A LIVING BEING."
The Bible does not teach that God placed a soul in us at creation. It specifically states that God formed man(body) out of the dust of the ground, and breathed into him the breath of life, and man became a living soul(person or being).
Equation Form, body+breath= living soul.
Is the soul mortal or immortal? EZEK.18:4
"BEHOLD, ARE SOULS ARE MINE; THE SOUL OF THE FATHER AS WELL AS THE SOUL OF THE SON IS MINE; THE SOUL WHO SINS SHALL DIE."
"Mortal" means subject to death.
"Immortal" means not subject to death, imperishable.
Who only has immortality? 1TIM.6:15
",,,HE WHO IS THE BLESSED AND ONLY PONTENTATE, THE KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS, WHO ALONE HAS IMMORTALITY, DWELLING IN UNAPPROACHABLE LIGHT, WHOM NO MAN HAS SEEN OR CAN SEE, TO WHOM BE HONOR AND EVERLASTING POWER. AMEN."
******************************...
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).
No man is in heaven except for Jesus--JOHN 3:13; ACTS 2:34.
------------------------------...
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
Is there life after death?

This is a natural human fear, and humans created religion and the notion of an afterlife to cope with this. Thousands of religions each have their own rules to live happily ever after, some of them with more believers than Christianity. They are all wrong.
When you die, your conscious self ceases to exist. It's really not a big deal- you won't even get the chance to be disappointed. It will be like before you were born.
You only have one shot at this life thing. Live it to the fullest, leave something for the species, and above all, don't let lies hold you back.

Where will I go? Not heaven, at least I hope not. I personally believe I will be going to the Norse Afterlife, hopefully in Asgard to be with my Gods and Ancestors.
I do believe that there is an afterlife, and that those who have lived virtuous lives will go on to experience greater fulfillment, pleasure, and challenge no matter what religion or lack thereof they might have. The precise nature of the afterlife - what it will look like and feel like - is beyond our understanding and can only dealt with symbolically in the myths. No one has ever returned from the dead.

When we die the soul goes to HADES which is not HELL it has two parts Paradise and Torment. We do not go directly to heaven or hell, that happens on the Judgment Day according to God's word. All will bow before God and Believe, But only those who were faithful Christians will be told that GOD knows us and that we may enter. Those that did not believe and rebuked and rejected God will be told Depart from me...I never knew you, they will be cast into the lake of fire prepared for the devil and his followers. Read the story of the Rich man and Lazarus found in
The Parable Jesus told in Luke 16:19-31. This tells the reward for the righteous and the punishment for the wicked.

Christians who die pass to Paradise. while Jesus replaced into interior the grave, He went into Paradise and preached the Gospel to the saints of previous. The Bible say to be absent from the physique is to be contemporary with the Lord. i've got faith and have confidence that as quickly as we depart this earthly shell, angels escort us for the duration of the religious realm into the presence of God. i've got faith we are very on the factor of Christ's return interior the clouds for His church. it must be as I style this, or it may be quite a few years. We shouldn't get hung up on while Jesus will return yet as He advised His disciples while they asked while He might come back, pass into the international and pontificate the Gospel. we could consistently be approximately His employer of spreading the stable information of Jesus and His saving grace. while the Rapture happens, lots of the failings that happen in the international and in Heaven would be based on the Jewish feasts. there'll be a large Marriage Supper of the Lamb the place Christ and His church (the Bride of Christ) would be joined continuously. in this time, issues will pass from confusion and chaos at contemporary after the Rapture to the factor that they initiate looking enormously stable under this large difficulty solver and chief who emerges. he's the Antichrist. on the mid factor of the 7 365 days tribulation, the Antichrist will announce who he relatively is. God will start to pour out His judgements on earth. The issues which will happen are horrendous. you do no longer decide for to be right here! The era ends while Christ returns to the earth. The armies of the international accumulated at Meggido to combat Him are destroyed by using Christ talking there destruction. the main extreme question we are able to ask is do i understand if I died top now, the place might I spend eternity. you have that insurance in case you ask Christ into your coronary heart and start to stay for Him. it relatively is the wonderful existence you could stay.

When you die, your body rots into dust because from dust you came to dust you return. HOWEVER, your soul or your conscience, goes to sleep, UNTIL JESUS returns. THERE ARE NO GHOSTS. WHEN he RETURNS, if you have believed in him and kept ALL his COMMANDMENTS, not just the ones you choose. FOR EITHER YOU ARE WITH ME OR AGAINST ME, CHOOSE THIS DAY WHOM YOU SHALL SERVE.
IF you believed in him YOU WILL BE RESURRECTED before the living saints and will be caught up to the sky to meet HIM IN HIS GLORY. Those who did not choose JESUS will remain on earth in death. Their soul sleeping until the day of their judgement with their master the DEVIL. www.amazingfacts.com is a great website where you can learn about the bible. or to hear amazing sermons that is 100% based on the bible and will touch your soul, go to www.audioverse.org

there is no way to know for sure because almost all the answers to this question will be based on beliefs and have no evidence to back it up and i am pretty sure that people who are answering this question hasn't died before the won't be able to tell you from experience. so there is no way of knowing where you will go because all you can really do is hope is somewhere positive! hope i helped! l=1)

Ecc 12:6 Or ever the silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl be broken, or the pitcher be broken at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern.
Ecc 12:7 Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.
2Co 5:6 Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord:
2Co 5:7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)
2Co 5:8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.

Belief in the one true God gets you into Heaven. What if you grow up in some country and just by chance, never learn of Jesus, but you pray and believe in God and lead your life morally and good? That sends you to Hell? God is what is important. Faith in GOD. I doubt that Moses or Abraham or any Old Testament patriarch/prophet worshipped Jesus...are you telling me that they are stewing in Hell? Please.

It's whatever you want to believe. There are lots of people who believe that when you die you go to heaven if you believe in God, and hell if you didn't believe in God. There are also lots of people who believe that when you die, your spirit is reincarnated as another person or as an animal. There are still more people who believe that there is no heaven or hell, and when you die, that's it. It's just a matter of researching, and finding out what fits you best.
