What do Catholics believe?
• Death is the end of earthly life. Yet, the soul continues to live on.
• Soul separates from the body. • There is a judgement at death• We come from God and return to God.• Death is not the end of life. • Diagnosing death is the responsibility of the
medical profession

The Soul• The Soul is the spiritual principle of the human person. • The Catechism (official teachings of the church) describes the
soul as:
"the innermost aspect of humans, that which is of greatest value in them, that by which they are most especially in God's image: 'soul' signifies the spiritual principle in man.“
"is immortal: It does not perish when it separates from the body at death, and it will be reunited with the body at the final Resurrection" (CCC 366).

Judgement at death
• At death there is individual judgement
• Final judgement will occur at the end of time(the second coming of Jesus)
![Page 8: AS 2.4 6 credits Internal assessment](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062811/56816027550346895dcf2df7/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
• All souls living and dead will be Judged by Jesus Christ when he comes back to earth.
• The souls of those who die unrepentant of serious sins, or in conscious rejection of God, will at judgment day may be forever in a state called Hell.
• The Catholic Church teaches the creationist view that the spiritual and immortal soul is created immediately by God.

Through Him all things were made. For us men and our salvation He came down from heaven: by the power of the Holy Spirit, He was born of the Virgin Mary , and became man. For our sake He was crucified under Pontius Pilate; He suffered, died, and was buried. On the third day He rose again in fulfilment of the scriptures: He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end. We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son. With the Father and the Son, He is worshiped and glorified. He has spoken through the Prophets. We believe in one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church. We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins. We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.
