(from the Introduction) When contemplating their own mortality, most people neglect to factor in the Bible's teachings about life and death. Consequently, they go through their daily life unaware of the two disparate realities that together define their existence: one temporal, the other eternal. The temporal reality encompasses the material world situated in space-time, accepted as real without question because it is perceived with the physical senses, such as sight, sound, and touch. In contrast, the eternal reality is more challenging to discern since it is intangible. It manifests as the inner spiritual voice that establishes a connection between an individual and the supernatural, bridging the gap from the temporal world to a realm that can only be perceived by the spirit. The Bible teaches that death marks the conclusion of our dual existence. After death, the physical body stays here and returns to dust, while the spirit moves on to another dimension. The notion that the spirit does not perish with the body may seem counterintuitive and is admittedly unprovable, but it gains credibility by mirroring universal law. For instance, the law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed. The Bible expands on that material law by positing that a person's spiritual 'energy' is not annihilated by physical death but is freed from the constraints of space and time, transitioning into eternity intact. The Holy Bible reveals that God's purpose in creating man was to establish a reciprocal bond of love, to love and be loved.
