Hebrews 12:20-22
EasyEnglish Bible
20 They were very afraid of what God had told them. God had said, ‘If even an animal touches the mountain, you must kill it with stones.’ 21 Even Moses was very afraid when he saw God's great power. He said, ‘I am full of fear!’
22 But as believers in Christ, you have not come to God in that way. You have come to Mount Zion.[a] You have come to the city of the true God who lives. You have come to the city of Jerusalem that is in heaven. There are many thousands of happy angels all together in that place.

- 12:22 The Bible often uses the name Zion to mean Jerusalem. But Christians belong to God's city in heaven. They belong with all of God's people, who will live with God for ever. Everyone who believed God in earlier times is also part of his people. Those people are dead now, and their spirits are with God. We are not dead yet. But it is like our spirits are already there too, with them.
