1.6 Eschatology: Life after death Flashcards
What happens at Judgement?
God judges all humans fairly on the way that they have lead their lives and sends them to Heaven, Hell or Purgatory. Jesus also shares in the work of Judgement - he judges everyone and offers them salvation, those who refuse face another judgement at the Last Judgement.
What is the Last Judgement?
God judges all (alive or dead). Jesus returns to Earth on the ‘second coming’. On the Last Judgement, the dead will be physically resurrected.
What are some opinions about cremation/burials?
Some Christians will be buried as they believe that everyone will be resurrected on the Last Judgement, however some are cremated as they think that they will be raised as a spiritual body.
