Do you believe in life after death, that our spirit survives after our body dies?

Answer 1

Yes, but not based upon anything I was told, rather numerous incidents when I was a child during astral projection episodes, and once experiencing a being of light. The knowledge that our consciousness is separate from our physical being was made very clear during that time. Describing it sounds a bit loopy (and cynics/sceptics to laugh), but it is true. Because of this, death is just another stage, and not the end of consciouness.

Answer 2

The bible says that when we die.. we are conscience of nothing.
Ecclesiastes 9:5 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.

Jesus talks about death like a 'sleep' or 'rest' its just a resting time where you wait in the grave or 'hell' or 'sheol' to be resurected.

(John 11:11) He said these things, and after this he said to them: “Laz´a·rus our friend has gone to rest, but I am journeying there to awaken him from sleep.”

does anyone really want to die???

“Even time indefinite [God] has put in their heart, that mankind may never find out the work that the true God has made from the start to the finish.” (Ecclesiastes 3:11)

god made us want to live forever.. why?
if our final fate was to live up in heaven.. why wouldn't we be happy to die so we can spend time with god??

John 3:16 “For God loved the world so much that he gave his only-begotten Son, in order that everyone exercising faith in him might not be destroyed but have everlasting life.

we can have this everlasting life.. here on earth..

here this scritupre says there will be a new earth.

13 But there are new heavens and a new earth that we are awaiting according to his promise, and in these righteousness is to dwell.

what is this new earth??

(Psalm 37:9-11)
9 For evildoers themselves will be cut off,
But those hoping in Jehovah are the ones that will possess the earth.

10 And just a little while longer, and the wicked one will be no more;
And you will certainly give attention to his place, and he will not be.

11 But the meek ones themselves will possess the earth,
And they will indeed find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace.


(Acts 24:15)
15 and I have hope toward God, which hope these [men] themselves also entertain, that there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous.

Revelation 21:3, 4.
3 With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his peoples. And God himself will be with them. 4 And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”


In fact, in all its 66 books, the Bible never links the terms "immortal" or "everlasting" with the word "soul." On the contrary, the Scriptures clearly state that the soul—the person—is mortal. The soul dies.—Ecclesiastes 9:5, 10; Ezekiel 18:4.

Answer 3

I most assuredly believe in reincarnation--especially since I have talked to some of those who have crossed over and I am clairvoyant and clairaudient--in other words, I see things and hear voices!!! I've been a medium since I was in my mid-teens and nothing or nobody will ever convince me that there isn't life after death and that we don't come back again.

My opinion only, of course.

Answer 4

I believe that I am made of God substance, by God, for God, therefore, in the image and likeness of God, I, too, have no beginning and no end. I am, and so are all humans, eternally alive in some 'form' or another. I have experienced and 'seen' enough in my lifetime, that I realize there is more to this than the sum of all that we as humans know and experience. So YES there IS LIFE and only life continuing.

Answer 5

I don't believe in life after death because when you die that is the end......I think people tend to want to believe that because they want to live on in some type of way but I think that death is the end and no one spirit will ever survive after death!

Answer 6

The soul of a human survives...that is technically different than the commonly regarded 'spirit' of a human.

As far as we know, biblically, only humans have souls.

Answer 7

Yes. We are surrounded in an energy sac with a silver cord attached, similiar to development in the womb. Our bodies are parallel to placentas.

Of course, trying to describe the next level of being is about as difficult as describing life after birth to a fetus in the womb. ; ) And few grasp those they were mean to while on earth will be in the same place upon leaving here.

Answer 8

You have a body a mind and a spirit.Your spirit lives on

Answer 9

Life is not a "thing". It is an emergent property, possessed by nondeterministic matter/energy systems. Sentience, likewise, is also an emergent property, created by the matter/energy system of the brain acting in complex ways.

Answer 10

Yes I do. I believe that our spirit continues and will in the future live other lives. Maybe not as human beings on this earth, maybe they will be.
