what happens after you die???????????

Answer 1

For me, I'm going to be put on a slab and burned to ashes. I don't know about you.

Answer 2

Time and Space as we know it now will not exist anymore. There will no longer be 24 hours in a day and 365 days in a year. Those concepts no longer exist after we die.

God is eternal, and Heaven and hell are everlasting.

I believe (and this is just me saying this), I believe that since eternity is no beginning and no end, we are there right now, in the Spirit, but we do not consciously experience that reality because we are currently confined to time and space.

Those who die as Believers are instantly ushered into the presence of God in heaven, but we will have no memory of not having been there all along. Those beloved family members of ours who went before us, also Believing on the Son of God, do not experience separation from us, because they are in eternity (everything all at once). They are not there waiting for us to show up. The bible says we "Have" Eternal Life, not that we "will" have. Believers are judged at the Bema Seat judgement of Christ, according to the works they did after having Believed.

Those who die in Sin and transgressions, apart from the forgiveness found only in Christ Jesus will, upon their earthly death, go immediately to a holding place called Hades (not hell). Then they will come before the throne of God and be judged, Guilty based upon their rejection of the work God in Christ Jesus. They will be cast into hell and everlasting torment. The bible refers to this as "The second death". There will be no recollection of the past, no good memories to draw from and find consolation in, only everlasting, on-going, never ceasing torment.

Believers, having received eternal life still retain all of their memories, but there will be no mourning, no tears, no regrets. There will be no more death.

Existence in Heaven is not going to be an eternal worship service, where that's all that will happen or be allowed to happen. It is the perfect existence that God intended for us from the beginning. The one He provided Adam and Eve in the garden, before Sin entered into the world. If you want to know what heaven will be like, look at the description of the Garden of Eden in the bible, before the fall.


Remember, this is not a doctrine, this is just my own opinion.

God bless you.

Answer 3

You go to the grave and stay there, until the Great Judgment Day arrives. Then the dead in Christ shall rise and those Christians who remain on Earth alive,,,and all shall meet the Lord in the air....the ones left, who do not meet the Lord will be judged by their own sins and words. Every idle word they have spoken against God will come back to condemn them. It will be a day of rejoicing for the children of God....not so for the ones who rejected God's only Son as their Savior...which side will you be on?

Answer 4

After i die and my physical body ceases to exist, my soul will return to the summerlands...where it will rest, reflect on the life lessons of this lifetime, visit with others who are connected to me with soul-ties....perhaps take a little time to check on my family and friends that are still on the earthly realm...and then, once rested up, i will return to earth again to learn yet another in the series of life lessons i must before i can be united as one with the Divine.

Answer 5

The Bible tells us that there is not only life after death, but eternal life so glorious that “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him” (1 Corinthians 2:9). Jesus Christ, God in the flesh, came to the earth to give us this gift of eternal life. “He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed” (Isaiah 53:5).

Jesus took on the punishment that each of us deserves and sacrificed His very life. Three days later, He proved Himself victorious over death by rising from the grave, in Spirit and in flesh. He remained on the earth for forty days and was witnessed by thousands before rising to His eternal home in heaven. Romans 4:25 says, “He was handed over to die because of our sins, and he was raised from the dead to make us right with God.”

Answer 6

Eccles. 9:5,10 tells your thoughts end. You experience no pain or pleasure. You have no more worries.

Psalms 146:4 you go back to the ground (or components) and your thoughts do perish.

In the two instances of Jesus resurrecting someone, Lazarus and a 12 yr old girl, Jesus referred to them as sleeping or resting. In good sleep, you are not aware of anything going on about you. Neither are the dead.

We, the living, have hope for their eventual resurrection on the earth after it has been cleansed and restored to a paradise as originally intended in Eden.

Answer 7

Considering all thoughts, emotions, and memories reside in the brain, which stops functioning at death...

Remember what it was like a hundred years ago? It's exactly like that.

This scares some people so much they make up stories about a magical fairy granting people eternal life.

We call these stories "religion".

Answer 8

Hebrews 9:27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:

Answer 9

The soul dwells as the inmost body of light and superconscious, universal mind of a series of nested bodies, each more refined than the next: physical, pranic, astral, mental. In our conscious mind we think and feel ourselves to be a physical body with some intangible spirit within it. Yet, right now our real identity is the soul that is sensing through its multiple bodies physical, emotional and mental experience. Recognizing this as reality, we powerfully know that life doesn't end with the death of the biological body. The soul continues to occupy the astral body, a subtle, luminous duplicate of the physical body. This subtle body is made of higher-energy astral matter and dwells in a dimension called the astral plane. If the soul body itself is highly evolved, it will occupy the astral/mental bodies on a very refined plane of the astral known as the Devaloka, "the world of light-shining beings." At death, the soul slowly becomes totally aware in its astral/mental bodies and it predominantly lives through those bodies in the astral dimension.

The soul functions with complete continuity in its astral/mental bodies. It is with these sensitive vehicles that we experience dream or "astral" worlds during sleep every night. The astral world is equally as solid and beautiful, as varied and comprehensive as the earth dimension-if not much more so. Spiritual growth, psychic development, guidance in matters of governance and commerce, artistic cultivation, inventions and discoveries of medicine, science and technology all continue by astral people who are "in-between" earthly lives. Many of the Veda hymns entreat the assistance of devas: advanced astral or mental people. Yet, also in the grey, lower regions of this vast, invisible dimension exist astral people whose present pursuits are base, selfish, even sadistic. Where the person goes in the astral plane at sleep or death is dependent upon his earthly pursuits and the quality of his mind.

Because certain seed karmas can only be resolved in earth consciousness and because the soul's initial realizations of Absolute Reality are only achieved in a physical body, our soul joyously enters another biological body. At the right time, it is reborn into a flesh body that will best fulfill its karmic pattern. In this process, the current astral body-which is a duplicate of the last physical form-is sluffed off as a lifeless shell that in due course disintegrates, and a new astral body develops as the new physical body grows. This entering into another body is called reincarnation: "re-occupying the flesh."

During our thousands of earth lives, a remarkable variety of life patterns are experienced. We exist as male and female, often switching back and forth from life to life as the nature becomes more harmonized into a person exhibiting both feminine nurturing and masculine intrepidness. We come to earth as princesses and presidents, as paupers and pirates, as tribals and scientists, as murderers and healers, as atheists and, ultimately, God-Realized sages. We take bodies of every race and live the many religions, faiths and philosophies as the soul gains more knowledge and evolutionary experience.

Therefore, the Hindu knows that the belief in a single life on earth, followed by eternal joy or pain is utterly wrong and causes great anxiety, confusion and fear. Hindus know that all souls reincarnate, take one body and then another, evolving through experience over long periods of time. Like the caterpillar's metamorphosis into the butterfly, death doesn't end our existence but frees us to pursue an even greater development.

Answer 10

God created man, so as He has said, people will be rewarded for their works if they are forgiven and reconciled with God OR they will go to Hell.
