The subject of life after death invariably raises much interest and many questions whenever the topic comes up in conversation. While we may never have all our questions satisfactorily answered while we are here in this world, we are thankful that the gospel has “brought to light” many things concerning “life (for the soul) and immortality [incorruptibility]” (for the body) (2 Tim. 1:1010But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel: (2 Timothy 1:10)).
The Bible was not written to satisfy human curiosity, but to occupy us with the Lord Jesus Christ, who alone is enough to fill our hearts and minds. God, however, has been pleased to reveal many things to us in His Word concerning the future of our souls so that we might have a “full assurance of hope” (Heb. 6:1111And we desire that every one of you do show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end: (Hebrews 6:11)). “If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable” (1 Cor. 15:1919If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable. (1 Corinthians 15:19)). Thankfully, we have hope in the next world too.
The following remarks are some facts from the Word of God concerning death, the intermediate state, resurrection, and the final destiny of human beings.
