When someone dies, according to the Catholic Church, the soul leaves the body. Then the soul will rise and be judged based on the life that the soul lived. If the soul has accepted Christ as lord, and still has sin it will not be let into the Kingdom of God. Now that certainly doesn't mean that the soul is sent to hell, the soul goes to a place called purgatory. Purgatory is a place with the soul is "purged" of sin. Then when the soul is clean of sin then it will enter Heaven.
