28. What happens after death?

Episode Summary

Welcome back, and thanks for joining us. Today we continue our sermon series, What We Believe, drawn from the New City Catechism. If eternity truly hangs in the balance, how often do we stop to consider what awaits us beyond this life? And if Christ alone delivers us from the judgment we deserve, what keeps us from entrusting ourselves fully to Him today? Find out in this week's sermon brought by our Lead Pastor Stefan Bomberger.

Episode Notes

AFTER DEATH YOUR... 

1. Soul enters Heaven or Hell (Luke 23:42-43) 

2. Body rests in Bed or Prison (Daniel 12:2) 

3. Future ends in Life or Exile (John 5:28–29) 

 

WESTMINSTER (SEE CHAPTERS 32-33) Q. What Happens After Death? A. At death, those united to Christ enter Heaven while their bodies rest as in a bed; but the wicked enter Hell while their bodies are held as in a prison. At the resurrection, the redeemed will be made perfectly whole to enjoy God forever, while the lost will be cast out from His presence into eternal exile (WCF 32.1; 33.1–2; WLC 86; 89; 90; WSC 37; 38).
