Yes. Here is a quote that expresses the Baha'i belief and mine...
"And now concerning thy question regarding the soul of man and its survival after death. Know thou of a truth that the soul, after its separation from the body, will continue to progress until it attaineth the presence of God, in a state and condition which neither the revolution of ages and centuries, nor the changes and chances of this world, can alter. It will endure as long as the Kingdom of God, His sovereignty, His dominion and power will endure. It will manifest the signs of God and His attributes, and will reveal His loving kindness and bounty."
Baha'u'llah, Gleanings from the Writings of Baha'u'llah, p. 155

"One of the proofs of the immortality of the soul is that myriads have believed it. They also believed the world was flat."

There is no soul sleep of the righteous. The moment we die, we face the judgment of God (Hebrews 9:27).
Until the time of the final resurrection at the Second Coming, the righteous will be in Heaven, or Paradise, (Luke 23:43; 2 Corinthians 12:4) and the non-believers in Hell, or Hades (Revelation 1:18; 20:13-14).
The bible clearly says:
2Co 5:8 Yes, we are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord. (ESV Translation)
Those that are damned will ultimately join Satan in their separation from God in Hell.
2Th 1:9 They will suffer the punishment of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might,
Those that have died in Christ now reside in heaven as spiritual beings. Since Christ, the second person of the Godhead, has always existed, the elect of God have been known to Him before Christ actually walked the earth. So anyone who has died since the world began exists in Heaven or in Hell as described above.
Those who have died in Christ will not remain in heaven as a soul without a body. At God’s appointed time, there will be a final resurrection where the spirit will be unified with the resurrected body at the second coming of Christ at the final judgment. From Phil. 3:20-21, and 1 John 3:2, we know that our glorified bodies will be like that of Christ. We will not be deity like He is, but we will have the same qualities of His resurrection body. Our heavenly bodies will be our glorified earthly bodies. Christ’s body that died on the cross was the same one that was resurrected. His glorified body was able to travel through walls, appear suddenly, and ascend to heaven. From 1 Corinthians 15:39-40, 42b-43, we learn that our heavenly bodies will possess flesh that is of a different variety than our earthly ones. Our new bodies will be bodies of flesh, but as different from our earthly bodies as humans are from animals.

yes i do...i believe that our souls are eternal and that we all have life lessons to learn.
Until we can learn these lessons, we must continue to be born again on earth.....to repeat life over and over until we get it right....and learn all of these lessons.
Then and only then do we become one with the divine!
Blessed Be!
