What does the Bible say about believers dying?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that believers enter into peace when they die, experiencing rest and being taken away from evil.

According to Isaiah 57:1-2, the righteous perish but enter into peace when they die. This passage emphasizes that while the world does not care about the loss of a believer, God's people are taken mercifully out of this world to avoid the evil to come. When a believer dies, it is not an end but a transition into eternal rest in the presence of the Lord. Believers have been justified and are at peace with God due to Christ's imputed righteousness, which assures them of their eternal well-being and comfort even in death.
