7 For he that is dead is freed from sin. -Romans 6:7 Bible, King James Version
When mankind passes over to the Spirit World at the time of death, they are not suddenly freed from sin. Our nature, whether good or evil, does not suddenly change because we have passed over and the inner world we are in reflects our nature therefore some find themselves in Heaven, some in hell and most in an in-between world.
"Evil spirits are punished severely in the world of spirits to keep them terrified of doing evil. This too seems to come from the Lord, but still no punishment there does come from the Lord. It comes from the evil itself, since an evil is so closely united to its punishment that they cannot be separated. The hellish mob craves and loves nothing more than inflicting harm, especially punishing and torturing, and they do inflict harm and punishment on anyone who is not being protected by the Lord. So when something evil is being done from an evil heart, since this rejects any protection by the Lord, evil spirits assail the evildoer and inflict punishment."—Heaven and Hell §550
