Our Third Life: A Catholic Perspective

We will enter the third phase of our life after death. We have experienced the first phase of nine months in the womb of our mother and are living the second phase now. Death, judgment, and either heaven or hell await us. This book examines the catholic view of these four last things. Our emphasis is on what is necessary to ensure that we will enjoy the perfect happiness of everyone who attains eternal life in heaven. This life in heaven is nothing more than a living, personal relationship with God. Our guide is the Catholic Church.
