Faith and Eternal Life – A Catholic View

As Christians, who follow the teachings of Christ, our understanding of life and life after death should be based on the life of Jesus, the Son of God. The Christian view about eternal life is revealed through Jesus who became human, lived on earth, died, is risen and alive eternally. Therefore, every Christian should believe that there is no greater revelation and teaching about life after death than the one revealed by the Son of God, Jesus Christ.

  1. Faith and Eternal Life – A Catholic View

  2. As Christians, who follow the teachings of Christ, our understanding of life and life after death should be based on the life of Jesus, the Son of God. The Christian view about eternal life is revealed through Jesus who became human, lived on earth, died, is risen and alive eternally. Therefore, every Christian should believe that there is no greater revelation and teaching about life after death than the one revealed by the Son of God, Jesus Christ.

  3. The Christian life is oriented towards eternal life. The Nazareth store provides a chance of incorporating items like funeral urns, keep safe lockets, and cross bracelets which are items used to keep saving the memories of loved ones.

  4. CORPORAL ACT OF MERCY  Helping out any family in times of death is considered a corporal act of mercy by the church. Support received during such times is never forgotten and is more meaningful than any financial assistance. Situations like these do not call for any fancy words and talks; our silent gestures of kindness would convey the right message. But this is an unavoidable aspect of life which each one of us has to face. We take time to cope with the loss of our near and dear ones because it is difficult to live with the vacuum created by the departed soul.

  5. A CALL TO STAY TOGETHER  As fellow Christians and parishioners, we must remember that death is not an easy reality for the family of the deceased to accept. The immediate family members might not be in a state of mind to run around and get things done. Each one of us has the responsibility to extend our helping hand in such crucial times. Death is a crucial moment in the life of a Christian, who lives to reach Heaven. The immediate human reactions that accompany death are that of sorrow, confusion, commotion, fear. The best thing to do in difficult times is to calm down first, pause for a while, and think more practically.

  6. Every Christian is hopeful of eternal life by the baptism he has received. Therefore, the church teaches us that eternal life begins with Baptism. God is eternal because he is love, and love is everlasting because it is divine. If we are in love, we enter into God’s endless presence. Nazareth store firmly believes that most believers understand eternal life as life after death.

  7. The prayers which keep us together help in establishing this thought. The catholic rosary beads help us to stay focused. Because death is the cessation of our present earthly lives, the moment of separation of our soul and bodies.
