I can't explain it but it seems quite beautiful.


Several years ago I had an unusual experience concerning an uncle, a distant relative who lived over a thousand miles away.

While driving my car I suddenly felt the unmistakable presence of this relative that I hardly even knew. He was more like someone I had heard about than someone I knew. It was very strange; it felt as though I was momentarily lifted right out of my physical body. I seemed to be suspended somehow beyond space and time, bathed in a love so intense It felt like I could have just disappear into it at any moment if It would have let me. It only lasted for a few seconds, but it seemed to last forever at the same time. I realize how crazy this must sound. The experience was so strong that at first I was afraid I was loosing my grip on reality. I finally managed to chalk it up to an over active imagination.

Three days later I got a call from my aunt telling me that this uncle we are talking about had gone into a coma and died the day I had the experience. It felt like ice water had been poured down my back when she told me this. I had lost any real ideas of God or faith and had become somewhat of an atheist. Needless to say this experience caused me to rethink some of the conclusions I had come to.

I feel blessed to now understand that even in our darkest confusion something loves us so much that it went out of its way to assist me and bring me back to a state of absolute certainty about Gods love for us.
During the experience it seemed like there was a vast amount of information that I was somehow allowed access to. One thing that I came away from this experience understanding beyond any shadow of a doubt was that any Idea that God is unhappy with us or would judge or allow us to be punished for any reason is simply impossible.

I can’t explain the love I felt with words. They simply don’t make words big enough or complete enough to do this. The only way I can begin to convey this love to you is to say that there was simply nothing else there. Nothing but love. No hint of judgment, no displeasure of any sort. It is as though God sees us as being as perfect as we were the day we were created. It is only in our confused idea of ourselves that we seem to have changed.

I hope this is of some help to you. Good luck. Love and blessings.

Let me assure you that the Bible teaches the life we live after we die will be real—just as real as this life, if not more so. We won't be in a state of dreamlike consciousness, but we will fully exist in body, mind and soul.

The pattern for this is Jesus Himself. When Jesus died on the cross and was laid in a tomb, His physical body was completely and absolutely dead. But He came back to life by the power of God—and when He did, He had a different type of body, without the limitations it once had. His resurrected body wasn't an illusion; it was a glorious and immortal body that was just as real as His earthly body had been.

And someday, if we know Christ, we too will be given new bodies—bodies like Christ's resurrected body. The Bible says, "So will it be with the resurrection of the dead. The body that is sown is perishable, it is raised imperishable" (1 Corinthians 15:42). Our bodies in heaven will be real, and so will our whole existence. Only in this way will we be able to serve God.

But the real question is this: Are you ready for that day? Do you know—really know—that if you were to die tonight, you would go to be with Christ in heaven forever? You can know, by confessing your sins and your need of Christ, and trusting Him alone for your salvation. Salvation is real—and it can be yours by putting your faith and trust in Jesus Christ today.

We die (Ha'des). Until judgement day where if you are deemed worthy or pure of heart then you will inherit the earth and be entrusted with turning it into heaven to fulfil gods original purpose. If you are entrusted with this and you sin, you will be dead forever (Gehenna).

When you die, God will judge you. He'll decide whether you go to Heaven or Hell on whether you repented of your sins or not. If you've gotten saved or accepted Christ in your life then you'll spend on eternity in the Kingdom of Heaven. If not, then you will no longer exist (in other words, Hell.)

Yes there is one person who can tell you exactly what happens when we die, and he does so in his word the Bible, (Ecclesiastes9:5, 10 ; Psalm146:3,4) are some of the verses where God tells you what happens at or after death.

Once you're brain dead, the mind and conciousness stop. You and your perception of the world cease to be.

There is no dreaming, no awareness of there being nothing.

Then your body either rots away or gets burnt.

your body return to earth and become dust. However, your spirit as some kind of energy continie to live according to its state in the last minutes of your life. if it is happy and developed it will go heaven, if it is yearning to live again, it will search for suitable body and live again and if it is evil it will go to hell.

If you have accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior and Messiah,then you know you will go to heaven to be with God.
If you aren't ready,then you'll go to hell. It's that simple.

I suppose it would be just like the time before we were born. Heaven is a mythical utopian place (IMHO).
