Back to Basics: What Happens When We Die?
Series: Back to Basics
Death then what? Hebrews 9:27 There is more to understand than just death and judgment: After death, we go to Hades (Luke 16:19–31). One day, there will be a resurrection (1 Thess. 4:13–18; 1 Cor. 15:35–44). Then we will face judgment (Matt. 25:32; Rom. 14:10–12). Judgment then what? If we are found faithful, we will go to heaven. Why would I want to go there? It’s where God is. We will have an imperishable body. It is a place of joy. It is better than we can imagine. If we are found to be unrighteous, we will go to hell. Why would I not want to go there? We would be separated from God. It is a place of absolute agony. It is forever. It is worse than we can imagine.
