What happens to us when we DIE

[orcafan]

Hello to you all

Something that is a mystery : Where do we go when we die? Friends and i were having a debate and i would like to know what you all say on this. Given the facts with a biblical scripture to back it up, what happens to us when we die.

A christian is a person that believes in the birth of Jesus christ (immaculate conception) the crucifixtion and the resurrection and of course lives his life in the footsteps of christ.. The old testament is to pave the way for the prophesy of Christ to be fullfilled in the new testament.

So christians believe in the new testament and the faith is built on that. Jesus made it clear he came to fullfill the old testament.

Now on the topic, where do we go when we die? Do we go to heaven or hell or as some belive purgatory or do we stay asleep in the grave and wait for our lord to raise us up.

As christians we can read the bible and find the answers. The bible referes death as been in a deep sleep. In fact 66 times it makes clearly so. "Sleep" is clearly the biblical term for death.

To better understand what happens to us when we die, let us look at what happened when the first man, Adam was created.

And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. Genesis 2:7.

Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it. Ecclesiastes 12:7.
Do all our thoughts stop when we die, or do we just go to Heaven when we die without our bodies? The Dead do not Know Anything : that can be seen clearly in
Ecclesiastes 9:5-6,10.

The sleeping dead will one day rise again! For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.

For this by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

When Jesus comes, He will descend from heaven and shout, and all those who have died (fallen asleep in Christ) will rise. Then those who are still alive when Jesus comes will be caught up together with those who have died. From that time on, we will always be with the Lord!

When will this happen??? This is the will of the Father who sent Me, that of all He has given Me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last day.
And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day. John 6:39-40.
Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,
And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation. John 5:26-

Conclusion: When we die according to scriptures we are asleep in the graves until the power of the Almighty Lord jesus christ raises us up to him.

Luckily, most of us are too smart to fall for that bullshit.

sorry bud, but that's the most hilarious thing I've seen written here and I'm including every post by Marco and Telstra.

Your oppinion on this is respected and one day we will all know what happens. Until then we must wait and be prepared. What you choose to believe is up to you of course and i would like to know what you believe. Where do we go?

Do you just believe we just die and thats all, what happens?

Lots of people say i will go to hell cuz gay thing and second cuz they lable me a satanist cuz i listen to heavy metal. Thats does not make me evil, its my choice. The same with yours you are entitled to your choices and at the same time we must respect eachothers oppinions.

Well, I hope reincarnation is what happens. Life is really fun to live.

Of course, no one will ever know what truly happens after someone dies.

 

[NineOfClubs]

As kevbo says, no one will know until death arrives....

Personally, I think our bodies decay, our elements return to the earth they came from, the light goes out, a vast nothing awaits us....

Don't care that much if I might be wrong in that assumption.

Faith is just setting yourself up for disappointment.
I'd like to think we move on to a different place, however, we will NOT know until we die.
Just incase there is a "heaven," I live my life as a good person.

Jesus wept Orca.

Do you even read anything about other the many other belief systems around the world?

Your literalist obsession with the judeo-christian bible is starting to wear a bit thin.

Even with the bone you've tossed out about reincarnation.

What about just ceasing to be after we die?

Is there some problem with this?

Even the devil can quote scripture.

 

[GoodbyeSobriety]

Bias posts = invalid for debate.

Like others have said, where is your "Cease to exist" poll option?

I think our energy returns to the Earth. As for heaven/hell/souls, I think that is beyond human comprehension.

 

[orcafan]

Yet another religious nut has come to post unproven bullshit on Jub.

Everytime I have to read religious / spiritual stupidity, every vein in my head explodes.

Well i guess Cum Slave, you just like everyone else will indeed find out what happens when we die, I believe there is Jesus and he died for us and he defeated death and one day we will all be judged and rewarded when we die.. We cant simply just cease to exist, the bible is clear we must be judged.

thanks for your oppinion and you have a nice day.

I don't know what happens to you when you die, being as, to the best of my knowlege, I've never pegged it before.

I reccon reincarnation is the best shout if there is anything afterwards, but again, this is obviously, like anything on this subject, speculation.

 

[EwanSF]

We cant simply just cease to exist, the bible is clear we must be judged.

The bible advocates slavery, rape and ethnic cleansing. If I'm gonna look for answers anywhere, it'll be absolutely anywhere but that disgusting piece of trash.

*Removed hateful and ultimately pointless rant*

Why is this in hot topics? Surely should be moved to a more appropriate area.

Firstly absolutely no disrespect to anyones views here and i was not ranting i was been polite when i said have a nice day after i thanked the man for his input.

What is a hot topic for some people could possibly not be for others, if you dont want to post that is your choice like a lot of people email me privately but that is
their choice. The point of this is to get everyones input. Yes some people dont believe others do. I know that some people wont care what i say now but Jesus said " happy are those who believe and have not yet seen" the truth is we all awwait our death and on that day we will see who was wrong or right.

Nice picture by the way and take care.

 

[orcafan]

[Lukeee]

[EwanSF]

You are allowed to do that there. It's fun.
