Human life consists of three components: body, soul, and spirit. (1Ths 5:23
and Heb 4:12)

The body is easy to kill, but the soul; not so much. (Matt 10:28)

But even after people's body and soul are terminated, there's still the spirit
component to consider.

According to Gen 2:7 and Jas 2:26, the spirit component is what provides
human life with consciousness.

So; what happens to people's consciousness when their body and soul are
destroyed as per Matt 10:28? Where does it go? What's done with it?

Solomon believed that people's consciousness returned to God when they
pass away (Ecc 12:7) but that was the extent of his information. He didn't
know anything more beyond that.

The extent of Jesus Christ's information goes well beyond Solomon's limits
(John 1:1-3, John 3:31-34, Col 2:3 and Col 2:9) So, if Christ's teachings at
Luke 16:19-31 are a factual, true life story; then it's readily apparent that
human consciousness is transferrable to another existence in the afterlife.
