These pages are based on the King James Version and try to answer any query that may arise from the verses written in that version. There are many modern versions and no attempt has been made to go through each of those and answer the queries arising there.)

Please Explain!
These pages will look at the most frequently asked Bible questions on the subject of what happens when you die using the King James Version of the Bible. Maybe some of these questions have been yours at some time? The Bible is the Word of God. God has explained maybe in more texts than any other subject, what happens when we die. There are texts that puzzle Bible students, and the aim of these pages is to consider those verses in the light of the clear teaching of the sleep of death, followed by the resurrection and a call to life once again. The intention has been to deal fairly with all the Bible texts that provoke questions.

The texts considered are divided into those of the Old Testament and those in the New Testament.
