Eschatology: Death, Judgment, Heaven and Hell - Norman Chia

HeavenEschatology is a Greek word that means the doctrine of the last things. These are things, that church teaches, that happen when we die.

1. Your death is certain
2. You will experience life after death
3. Your life after death is eternal
4. You will experience either heaven or hell
1021 Death puts an end to human life as the time open to either accepting or rejecting the divine grace manifested in Christ.592 The New Testament speaks of judgment primarily in its aspect of the final encounter with Christ in his second coming, but also repeatedly affirms that each will be rewarded immediately after death in accordance with his works and faith. The parable of the poor man Lazarus and the words of Christ on the cross to the good thief, as well as other New Testament texts speak of a final destiny of the soul--a destiny which can be different for some and for others.
