Genesis 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
Note: The same Hebrew word for living soul (Nephesh) is also used in reference to living creatures in Genesis 1 verses 20 and 24, but there is obviously something unique about humans, In Genesis 1:27-28, we read that humans were made in God's image and were given dominion over all living creatures that move about on the earth.

Genesis 3:19 In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread Till you return to the ground, For out of it you were taken; For dust you are, and to dust you shall return.
Ecclesiastes 12:7 Then the dust will return to the earth as it was, and the spirit will return to God who gave it.
What happens when us and our thoughts when we die?
Psalm 146:4
His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.
Job 14:21 His sons come to honor, and he does not know it; They are brought low, and he does not perceive it.
Why do humans die?
Romans 5:12 Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned—

Note: This means supposed "near death experiences" are not true death experiences. If someone were truly dead, all function in the brain would have stopped and consciousnesses would cease.
What do the dead know?
Ecclesiastes 9:5 For the living know that they will die; But the dead know nothing, And they have no more reward, For the memory of them is forgotten.

Can the dead come back to haunt us?
Job 7:9-10 As the cloud disappears and vanishes away, So he who goes down to the grave does not come up. He shall never return to his house, mor shall his place know him anymore.
What did David, Job, Jesus, and Paul compare death to?
Psalm 13:3
What must happen for us to be always with the Lord?
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.
What did David, Job, Jesus, and Paul compare death to?
Psalm 13:3
Consider and hear me, O Lord my God; Enlighten my eyes, Lest I sleep the sleep of death
Job 14:10–12
Job 14:10–12
But man dies and is laid away; Indeed he reathes his last And where is he? As water disappears from the sea, And a river becomes parched and dries up, So man lies down and does not rise. Till the heavens are no more, They will not awake Nor be roused from their sleep.
John 11:11-14 These things He said, and after that He said to them, “Our friend Lazarus sleeps, but I go that I may wake him up.” Then His disciples said, “Lord, if he sleeps he will get well.” However, Jesus spoke of his death, but they thought that He was speaking about taking rest in sleep. Then Jesus said to them plainly, “Lazarus is dead."
1 Thessalonians 4:14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus.

What is the will of the Father for us who believe in in Jesus?

What does God have in heaven to replace our mortal bodies?
2 Corinthians 5:1-4 For we know that if our earthly house, this tent, is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed with our habitation which is from heaven, if indeed, having been clothed, we shall not be found naked. For we who are in this tent groan, being burdened, not because we want to be unclothed, but further clothed, that mortality may be swallowed up by life.
When will we be given our new bodies?
1 Corinthians 15:52-54 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: “Death is swallowed up in victory.”
What does the bible says about us being in our current bodies?
2 Corinthians 5:6-8 So we are always confident, knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord. For we walk by faith, not by sight. We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord.
John 6:40 And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day.”

When are the just rewarded?

But when you give a feast, invite the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind. And you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you; for you shall be repaid at the resurrection of the just.”
Matthew 16:27 For the Son of Man will come in the glory of His Father with His angels, and then He will reward each according to his works.
