You stand before God and he reviews your life. Whether you spend eternity with God or apart from God depends on one thing...Do you know Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior?
If your answer today is no, pray right now. Admit to God that you are a sinner. Admit that you believe that Jesus died to pay the price for your sins so that you can be with God in heaven. Confess it before men. Read your Bible. Let God's grace cover your sins and his sanctifiation bring you to a new place in life.
In prayers and the love of Christ

People who have truly died and then been revived give one of several types of accounts. All I've read and heard about say you (the soul, who you are consiously) are no longer confined to the body but travel to or are suddenly found to be in a different place or realm. People report to have had a positive, blissful experience. Some of these are certain they are in the Biblical Heaven and say they are not able to describe its extreme goodness in words. People have a negative, lonely, unpleasant experience. Some of these are sure they were in Biblical Hell (heat, stench, torment, pain), and also can't put it into words. Hopefully you believe in God and an afterlife because experiences seem to support what the Bible says. Personally, I believe near-death experiences are probably custom-given by God (who's in control of all things) to that person for a lesson for that particular moment of their life, and may not necessarily be an introduction of what will be their afterlife when they start their one-way ticket (ACTUALLY die). I would lean on Biblical teaching and obey that way because the Bible's never been wrong here (proof it isn't corrupted by man, by-the-way), and it teaches much on after-death, that our one birth-to-death life here will be judged and sentenced 'Heaven' or 'Hell', so my money is on what it says about that too.

That depends on how you lived. If you spent your life creating etheric elementals of lower base vibrations...then you would be surrounded by them...and end up being subject to them...until they can be dissolved, by you...because you created them.
Or you could be in a place of brightness and joy and light...if that was what you created.
There is no real hell...for eternity or any other such nonsence. The Jews during Jesus' time knew that reincarnation existed. So did the early christians. Even scripture has a few references to reincarnation and opportunities where Jesus could have corrected the askers...but he chose not to.
Jesus was asked if a man was born blind by his parents sin or his own sin: how can a man sin if he wasn't born? Unless reincarnation is at play here.
How your spirit is now...is pretty much how it is going to be...because your spirit is now creating it's place.
Is this forever? Nope. Sometimes you will be allowed into another manifestation...meaning..you will be back here in another life...and some of your previous stuff...will come forward.
So as not too much will come forward...and for the purpose of ending that manifestation...that is why the wait. Especially if the previous life was negative.
Some are coming back...because she still need to learn. Others come back because they are to heal and teach. And raise the level of vibration to a higher one on earth.

Ecclesiastes 9v5 For the living are conscious that they will die; but as for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all, neither do they anymore have wages, because the remembrance of them has been forgotten.

Read up on near death experiences. That'll give you a clue.
BTW, a lot don't even know they are dead. Think of how hard it would be to explain to a fetus in the womb as to life after birth. It's the same with life after physical death. Our bodies parallel a placenta.

Ecclesiastes 3 :18 I said in mine heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God [1] might manifest them, and that they might see that they themselves are beasts. 19 For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all is vanity. 20 All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again. 21 Who knoweth the spirit of man [2] that goeth upward, and the spirit of the beast that goeth downward to the earth?

For the Christian- the Bible says that to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord.
So, the person leaves their body and goes to Heaven. The body remains until it is resurrected.

according to scriptures, when we die we stand immediately before the judgement throne of God. Everyone gets judged.

I believe that when a person dies, they go to heaven and spend eternity with the loved ones that they have lost and with God. But like I said, that is what I believe.
