This Assessment Is Based On Life After Death From A Roman

Many people are not sure about life after death but the Catholic Church teaches otherwise. The Scriptures teach that it is natural to die. “There is a season for everything… A time for giving birth, a time for dying.”- Ecclesiastes 3:1-2. For Christians, the meaning to death is found in the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, which Catholics celebrate in the Eucharist. Judgement is believed to then come after death and we will each be judged, and rewarded or punished due to how we have lived our life on earth. St. Paul writes, “All of us must appear before Christ to be judged by him. All will receive what they deserve, according to everything they have done, good or bad in the bodily life. - 2 Corinthians 5:10. The Catholic Church also teaches that for a Catholic, death marks the climax of a person’s life on earth. For committed Catholic’s, death becomes their most meaningful act. Catholics also believe that their physical life is short so it motivates them to live a faithful life filled with mercy and love. Eventually, if they have done this, they will be rewarded. There is also the reassurance that they will be reunited with loved one who have already passed before them. We know this by Christ’s death and resurrection because he has changed the nature of our death. That we too will go to heaven. That Jesus destroyed the power of

In Christian Theology, Christians believe that there is an afterlife. After they die, their body is either buried or cremated and their unique soul enters Heaven, Hell, or Purgatory. Their belief that Jesus rose from the dead three days after crucifixion, gives them hope that if they follow Jesus’ teachings and make him their Lord and Savior than they too will experience a resurrection in the afterlife . Jesus’ incarnation, crucifixion, and resurrection gave all Christians hope that life after death is possible.

Heaven is According to Mueller images of joy that lie before us, but words can’t fully embrace the joys of heaven. “No eyes has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him- these things God has revealed to us through the Spirit” (1 Corinthians 2:9-10)

While religion can be a vague topic where many things seem unconnected between two or more faiths, heaven is a common aspect of most popular religions, such as the various denominations of Christianity, Islam, Judiasm, and Buddhism. All of these religions have a place, be it physical or another dimension beyond our comprehension, where people's souls reside after death.

From the Catholic tradition they believe that ‘Those who die in God's grace and friendship and are perfectly purified live forever

Therefore, today it is often just a personal decision as to whether a person is buried or cremated. How ever what happens to the persons soul after the funeral is the big question. Hell or Heaven Many Christians have different ideas of what happens in heaven and hell as it is rarely described in the bible. Some/ most Christians such as me believe that Heaven is a place where our souls can live on in peace and just with God.

The concepts of “the sacred and the transcendent” are depicted in religious scriptures worldwide, and create the foundation to the beliefs and practices of that religion. “The sacred and transcendent” is defined, as that of which is “otherworldly.” It is the mystical world, the supernatural. In Christian terms, “the sacred and transcendent” is the realm of the world outside of creation. Heaven and hell are two elements that are regarded as being “the sacred and transcendent” in Christianity. They are the supernatural realms that existed before creation. These realms are where one’s soul and spirit eternally rest when they die. Heaven is one of the most sacred concepts in Christianity. According to God, our bodies are delicate mortal seeds. Upon death, a person is laid to rest in the ground and at this moment the “seed” sprouts releasing the immortal soul. God, our one and only creator judge the soul of the person, and only those souls that are without sin and are not immoral or tainted by evil are allowed to enter the gates of heaven. Heaven is the realm for those people who followed the beliefs and practices of their respective religions according to their God. Heaven is a realm where all of the imperfections that existed in the “real” world do not exist and every soul rests in harmony and serenity. Hell is the “evil” realm of the world outside of creation. The souls of those people who do not follow the teachings of their God during their brief

Once death has arrived, it is painful, but for the Catholic it is not the end but the step to eternal life. When planning the funeral, the burial is preferred to be in a Catholic cemetery, since these have been consecrated as a holy place of rest and show the respect that Catholics have to the life and death of Christ. The vigil, the funeral liturgy, the farewell ceremony, and the burial are the Catholic rites that the faithful receive once they have died. With them faith is expressed and the deceased is entrusted to the mercy of God. The day of death inaugurates the end of his sacramental life, and the fullness of his new birth begun at Baptism.

Each religion views Heaven differently, they each have their own opinion. Heaven is the abode of God or various God

I try to live life happily and fully because I know that the time on Earth is limited. What makes the life precious is the inevitability of the death. Day by day, from birth, everyone is approaching a step closer to his or her final hour. Even the Bible mentions in Ecclesiastes 3 that “there is a time for everything … a time to be born and a time to die”. Many scientists tried to research the concept of mortality, and yet, this matter needs further study, or it will remain unknown until each person encounters at a time of death. I still remember the first decease scene I witnessed as a child; it was my great-grandfather’s. He was an atheist for his whole life and neither did he believe the afterlife. In spite of this, right before he ceased to breathe, my family heard him saying, “I believe in God, I want an eternal life”. I suppose that my great-grandfather wanted to have peace and be sincere before leaving this world which he could not return. Notably, a lot of people throughout the times believed the afterlife. Egyptians, for example, believe that the souls continue their life even after the death. Others, for instance, the Christians, believe of resurrection at return of Jesus. Christian’s burials are interesting that it is still a popular tourist attraction in Rome. The tombs I will focus are the Christian catacombs and the St. Peter’s, in addition to development of Christianity and the Christian art traced along these sites.

Heaven is a place of glory and a reward for the good deeds that you have done in your mortal life. Hell is a place of anguish and torture for the bad deeds you had done in your mortal life. Judgment day is the Day of Judgment like it says in the word but on that day you will be judged on your life and will either end up in one of the three heavens or if you still chose not to believe after everything you will be stuck in hell or the burning lake of fire.

Catherine of Siena describes heaven as being a place where there is nothing but a deep love and bound between God and his believers. She describes the people there as having a desire for God for forever and yet that desire is satisfied fully.19 Catherine also speaks on all of the rejoicing that will occur in heaven, this referring to the souls in heaven as rejoicing in their love for God forever.

Many people, even if they are not very religious, are concerned about what is heaven, and if they are going to heaven. They want to know how to know God and how to be right with God, so that they do go to heaven. Let 's discuss this very simply.

Catholics believe that the resurrection and death of Jesus have changed the meaning and the effect of human death. Death is no longer the end of an individual’s human identity, because the soul continues on after death. The Catholic Church teaches that a soul may go to heaven, purgatory or hell, depending on the quality of a person’s life on earth. “That the body dies, death is a normal natural process” (Ecclesiasticus 3:1-2) Based upon the sacred scripture and teachings of the Church, we know what Catholic believes after death and what follows it. When someone dies, their soul is separated from their body and no longer sustains any order within the natural body. As a result of this, the human body begins to corrupt and is left to decompose on its own. The soul however is completely different as it is immortal and will never cease to exist

Some believers of the Jewish faith say that, in order to live a happy life, one must achieve salvation before the afterlife here on earth whenever someone does right and follows all of the commandments. Also some believe that the afterlife is the gift that God gives to us after we pass away. The gift that we achieve is by going to the holy nation.
