Hey!
As promised, here are the slides from the wonderful presentation by Fr Thinh.
Though we may never fully understand the afterlife until all is revealed when we reach that afterlife, I do believe that from what we do know and understand, we get a representation of what it could be. For some, knowing is equally good as not knowing; for others, even the slightest glimpse strengthens our faith.
There's this scene in the film Meet Joe Black where a character asks Death : Should I be afraid? And Death replies "Not a man like you." I encourage you to lead a moral and honorable life such that the same can be said.
Discussion of questions that people had...
Please feel free to reply and add other questions that you may have.
1. How do we know whether we have done good or bad in our lives?
2. What is our purpose after reaching heaven?
3. What of spirits roaming the earth? Are they in heaven, hell or purgatory or something totally separate?
4. Are our feelings of unworthiness for receiving God's for forgiveness a "willing refusal of God's mercy"?
5. Is it possible to go from hell to heaven and vice versa?
