The Bible teaches that after death, souls go to one of two places: paradise, a temporary place of comfort for believers, or Hades, an intermediate hell for the unsaved.

Where Are They Now? (Pt. 1)

The Bible teaches that when we die, our souls go to one of two places: paradise, a temporary heaven for the righteous dead, or Hades, an intermediate hell for the unrighteous dead. Jesus' story of the rich man and Lazarus illustrates this concept, showing that the rich man ended up in Hades, tormented by his memories of rejecting God, while Lazarus was comforted in paradise. The Bible also teaches that at the judgment of the great white throne, Hades will be emptied and its inhabitants sent into the lake of fire, eternal hell. Meanwhile, believers who die go to paradise, which has been transferred to heaven by Jesus, where they await the resurrection of their bodies. [... more]
