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

Eschatology 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.

Eschatology: the 4 Last Things - Fr. Wade Menezes

5 part miniseries on the Catholic Church's doctrine and teachings about the Four Last Things: Death, Judgement, Heaven, and Hell. Fr. Wade Menezes, CPM, focuses on the differences between the Particular Judgement and the Last Judgement; the Church's teaching on Heaven; the chief characteristics of the risen, glorified, and transfigured human body; the existence of hell; and growing nearer to God.

Philippians 2:12-16. Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, so now, not only as in my presence but much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling; for God is at work in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure. Do all things without grumbling or questioning, that you may be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world, holding fast the word of life, so that in the day of Christ I may be proud that I did not run in vain or labor in vain.
