What does the Bible say about the truth of death?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that death comes to all, rich and poor, and does not change a person's state.

The truth about death, as illustrated in Luke 16, is that it is the great equalizer—it comes to everyone regardless of wealth or status. The rich man and Lazarus both faced death, which led to a change in their circumstances but not in their states. Death does not alter a person's condition or their relationship to God; it only changes their location. The rich man suffered torment in hell, while Lazarus was comforted in Abraham's bosom, emphasizing that one's eternal position reflects their state in life. In Revelation 22:11, it affirms that those who die in their sins remain unchanged in their sinful state.
