What happens when someone dies?

  1

Psalms 146:4
His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth;
in that very day his thoughts perish.

  2

Ecclesiastes 3:19-20
For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts;
even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth,
so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath;
so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast:
for all is vanity.
20 All go unto one place; all are of the dust,
and all turn to dust again.

  3

Ezekiel 18:4
Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father,
so also the soul of the son is mine:
the soul that sinneth, it shall die.

  4

Ecclesiastes 9:5,10
For the living know that they shall die:
but the dead know not any thing,
neither have they any more a reward;
for the memory of them is forgotten.
10 Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do,
do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device,
nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest.

  5

John 11:11,13-14
These things said he: and after that he saith unto them,
Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go,
that I may awake him out of sleep.
13 Howbeit Jesus spake of his death:
but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep.
14 Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.
