Death is the physical termination of life caused by departing from God in sin. The dead have no hope of any type of existence beyond the grave unless God brings resurrection. God created humans with access to th tree of life, but barred that access when they sinned, bringing to pass His plumb line warning that eating of the tree of knowledge of good and evil would bring death. Death then is the result of sin. It is the end of life and outside human power to prevent. It can be a hurdle that overcome by belief in Christ. It is under Christ's power because God's incarnate Son experienced it for us and defeated it by resurrection.
Death is the pathway to the ultimate encounter with and experience of God. It is the ultimate means God uses to discipline people who have departed from him.
Death reveals to people their limitations and God's sovereign control over all of life and death. It encourages the living to ponder life's opportunities and make wise decisions.
Death comes when you least expect it......

Although intellectually we all know that one day we shall die, generally we are so reluctant to think of our death that this knowledge does not touch our hearts, and we live our life as if we were going to be in this world forever. As a result the things of this world - such as material possessions, reputation, popularity, and the pleasures of the senses - become of paramount importance, so we devote almost all our time and energy to obtaining them and engage in many negative actions for their sake. We are so preoccupied with the concerns of this life that there is little room in our mind for genuine spiritual practice. When the time of death actually arrives we discover that by having ignored death all our life we are completely unprepared.
What is death? Death is the cessation of the connection between our mind and our body. Most people believe that death takes place when the heart stops beating; but this does not mean that the person has died, because his subtle mind may still remain in his body. Death occurs when the subtle consciousness finally leaves the body to go to the next life. Our body is like a guesthouse and our mind like the guest; when we die our mind has to leave this body and enter the body of our next rebirth, like a guest leaving one guesthouse and travelling to another.
The mind is neither physical, nor a by-product of purely physical processes, but is a formless continuum that is a separate entity from the body. When the body disintegrates at death the mind does not cease. Although our superficial conscious mind ceases, it does so by dissolving into a deeper level of consciousness, the very subtle mind; and the continuum of the very subtle mind has no beginning and no end

the end of life as we know it, or the beginning of life as we don't know it.
