What Really Happens When We Die? | What the Bible Says

What really happens when we die? Does the Bible teach that the dead are conscious, or does death have a different meaning according to Scripture? In this Bible study, we explore what the Bible actually says about death, the state of the dead, the resurrection, and what happens when Jesus returns. Rather than relying on popular beliefs or human tradition, we examine the biblical picture of death and the hope Scripture gives beyond the grave. We’ll explore what happens when we die according to the Bible, whether the dead know what is happening around them, what the Bible means by death as a “sleep,” and how the resurrection connects with the return of Jesus Christ. 📖 SCRIPTURES EXPLORED • Genesis 2:7 • Ecclesiastes 9:5–6 • Psalm 146:4 • John 11:11–14 • John 5:28–29 • 1 Thessalonians 4:13–18 • 1 Corinthians 15:51–54 The Bible does not leave us without hope.
