Bible Question: Where do we go after death |
Bible Answer: Hello iwatercc, If you have never been to a funeral, you can see first hand where people go when they die. It seems to be a prominent happening in scripture, that dead people go to the grave. Gen 50:5 'My father made me swear, saying, "Behold, I am about to die; in my grave which I dug for myself in the land of Canaan, there you shall bury me." Now therefore, please let me go up and bury my father; then I will return.'" 1 Kin 13:31 After he had buried him, he spoke to his sons, saying, "When I die, bury me in the grave in which the man of God is buried; lay my bones beside his bones. Here are a couple of scriptures concerning the spirit or breath that God has given, as He breathed the life into Adam. Ps 146:4 His spirit departs, he returns to the earth; In that very day his thoughts perish. Eccl 12:7 then the dust will return to the earth as it was, and the spirit will return to God who gave it. Then those who die in Christ have the resurrection to look forward to. John 11:25 Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in Me will live even if he dies,... I hope this helps your understanding, wordoer |
