What does the Bible say about the nature of death for believers?

Answered in 1 source

For believers, death is seen as a transition to eternal life with Christ, not an end.

Death is redefined for believers as a 'graduation' or 'promotion' to a greater existence with Christ. Revelation 20:6 emphasizes the blessed state of those who partake in the first resurrection, establishing that death marks the beginning of eternal life. Rather than facing punishment or fear, believers view death as a rest and an answer to their prayers for ultimate communion with Christ, emphasizing that they will never die spiritually.
