What does the Bible say about believers who die?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that believers who die 'sleep' in Christ and are immediately present with the Lord.

In 1 Thessalonians 4:13-14, Paul comforts believers about those who have died in Christ, affirming that they 'sleep' and will be raised at Christ's return. This sleep refers to the body, while the soul immediately enters the presence of the Lord (2 Corinthians 5:8). The believer's hope is anchored in the resurrection of Jesus, which assures us of our own future resurrection and eternal life in His presence.
