Many people would almost loose their faith when someone close to them dies, yes it did happen to me when I lost my sibling. I questioned the fact that God would allow someone so young and so full of life slip into oblivion, just like that.

As we face death inevitably, we inevitably also will face the judgment seat of God come the day of judgment.
Acts 17:31-
Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.
God has appointed the day in which he will judge the whole world in righteousness. The death of the Lord Jesus Christ teaches us something, but His resurrection from the dead teaches us another thing and what are those things that He taught us when He resurrected from the dead, that we will inevitably die also and we will inevitably also be resurrected and face judgment.
