Death
Death is universal, unnatural and certain (Heb. 9:27).  It is humankind’s hostile enemy (1 Cor. 15:26).  However, for the believer it is a conquered enemy because its curse has been lifted (1 Cor. 15:54-57).  Death is not the cessation of existence; it is a transition to a different type of existence. 

Intermediate State
Following death and preceding the resurrection, the souls of believers abide in heaven - in the Lord’s presence (Luke 23:43; 2 Cor. 5:8; Phil. 1:23).  The souls of unbelievers reside outside of the Lord’s presence - in hades (2 Peter 2:4, 9). 

Second coming
Jesus is coming again and just as physically and visibly as he did at the first advent (John 14:3; Acts 1:11; 1 Thess. 4:16), but this time he is coming in power and great glory (Matt. 24:30).   No one knows when he will return (Mark 13:32-33, 35); it will be sudden and unexpected (1 Thess. 5:2-3). 

Resurrection
At the resurrection, the body will be restored to life (Romans 8:11) and will be reunited with the soul.  This is true for both the righteous and the unrighteous (John 5:28-29; Acts 24:14-15).

Eternal States
The final and eternal state of the righteous is to be in heaven (1 Thess. 4:17) - to be in the presence of God - enjoying blessedness, sinlessness, joy and peace.  In heaven the righteous will experience the absence of evil and suffering (Rev. 21:4), perfect knowledge (1 Cor. 13:9-12), God’s rest (Heb. 4:9-11) and genuine community among believers (Heb. 12:22-24).  The final and eternal state of the wicked is to be outside of the presence of God where they will experience God’s wrath (Romans 2:5), eternal punishment (Matt. 25:46), torment (Rev. 14:10-11) and darkness (Matt. 8:12).
