- Religion & Spirituality
Jesus teaches that death is like a door, once it is shut and locked you are either in or out. Podcast by Fr. Luke Fletcher, CFR. Listen to learn more! Matt 25:1-13 | James 2:17
Catechism of the Catholic Church:
1007 Death is the end of earthly life. Our lives are measured by time, in the course of which we change, grow old and, as with all living beings on earth, death seems like the normal end of life. That aspect of death lends urgency to our lives: remembering our mortality helps us realize that we have only a limited time in which to bring our lives to fulfillment:
1013 Death is the end of man's earthly pilgrimage, of the time of grace and mercy which God offers him so as to work out his earthly life in keeping with the divine plan, and to decide his ultimate destiny.
1021 Death puts an end to human life as the time open to either accepting or rejecting the divine grace manifested in Christ.
