Yes. Its more of a fear rather than a denial.

even Jesus died.
all of the first century christians who believed in Jesus died one way or another.
christians today who believed in Jesus have died one way or another. my grandmother, my dad, some of my aunts and uncles, my sister to name a few.
"the scripture says that it is appointed to man once to die, then comes the judgement."
the Bible says that physical death is not the extent, but a symptom of being spiritually dead.
and says that those who physically die without becoming spiritually born again in Christ - by believing that He arose from the dead - shall be doubly dead.
.
"for God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever shall believe in Him shall not perish, but have everlasting life." john 3:16
.
and therefore, those who physically die, yet believing in Christ, shall not be spiritually dead, because they have received Jesus, and passed from that death unto everlasting life.
that is what Jesus meant when He said, "though he were dead, yet shall he live." john 11:25-26
.
the event that denies death is the rapture. when it happens not all christians will have died, but those who are alive will have their bodies be changed to a glorified body like that of Jesus.
and likewise those believers who died will be raised up also with a glorified body. 1 thessal. 4:14-17

We dont believe we live forever in the sense you speak of. It is spiritual everlasting life. Your body dies from whatever (ie: old age, heart attack, disease, etc) and it get buried or whatever but your spirit lives on. Kinda like dreaming.

We believe in spiritual life everlasting. Our earthly bodies die and become plant food.

No they still embrace the idea of death of the body but consider and believe the soul is eternal.

NOPE..............Bodies been dead.........Soul continues on..........personally i know....been there already !!! Body goes to dust from which it came....soul continue's somewhere...Heaven to those who have been washed.....hell to those who have not..............Its appointed unto man once to die after this the Judgement !!!...But when one dies out to sin....as did Christ........He who knew No SIN became Sin for us.........Died.....but conquered Death through the resurrection.........For it was impossiable for it to hold HIM.....
So By one mans sin( adam ) Death entered in...by ones mans resurrection( Jesus ) we now can live..........There is NO DEATH to a Child of God........we pass from this live to the Next !!!!!

How can a spirit die? Our bodies die becasue they are organic and can be killed in the physical realm.

No, it is rather an understanding of why it exists and how it can be conquered.
