Everyone dies at some point. Everyone goes to heaven. Is everyone in paradise?. Psalm 16:10. For Thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; 16:11. Thou will shew me the path to life. The word hell means grave, SHEOL. What is hell. Theirs a gulf that separates paradise and hell. When person dies in the flesh, their soul, spirtual body returns to the father. The person is greeted by a angel, who has book. The angel tells the person what side of the gulf they will be in. Jesus already confirmed before hand which side of the gulf people go to. If it's some one who had pride, self centered and selfish, their escorted to sheol. If it's some one who loved God and served God, its paradise. Let me ask you something. The dude who went to sheol, did she or he do the will of God?? Mark 3:35. Fir8who so ever shall do the will of God, the same is My brother, My sister, and mother. What's the answer?

Shoel was emptied after Jesus freed the prisoners. Abraham's Bossom (Paradise) was emptied when Jesus rose from the grave. The last soul in Shoel was the prisoner that Jesus said would join him on that day Jesus died. What exists at the divide is Hades, nothing more. Hell is the end ...

Simply put ...You believe that Jesus is the Son of God and pray for forgiveness of your sins .....your soul is escorted to heaven by two angels. .....Notice in the parable, by Jesus concerning Shoel . .One person is recognized by name, Lazuras and the other is not. The Rich Man is not named. The Rich Man also begs for his brothers to be told where he is .....That is not granted .....Guess who is not in the Book of Life.

The dead go nowhere. They are dead....thats what the word means. All, both good and bad await a resurrection at their appointed times.

The flesh goes nowhere but back to dust , the spirit (who we really are) returns to the Father
yes...and the spirit is the life force (energy), not a conscious entity. Its like the the power that lights a light globe; turn off the power and the light goes nowhere, it just ceases to exist.

We were spirit before being made to dwell in this dirt called flesh ,to say we are just a glob of energy is incorrect , the spirit is us looking like we do now, without the dust

David is talking about the Messiah, Jesus not everyone. Wife is kicking me off. Today, Hebrews 9:27 is in effect. We will need to discuss this tomorrow or the next day after I read what has already been posted.
