Here professor of Church history Dr. James Papandrea gathers in one place all that is known about the afterlife -- drawn from the teachings of Jesus, the Apostles, the Church Fathers, and the Church's Magisterium -- affording, for the first time ever, a complete, authoritative, detailed portrait of the state of souls after death and the realms we enter. The following are among the many questions he answers: -If, as St. Paul says, "flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God," how can our bodies enter Heaven? -After death but before the final resurrection, are we simply unconscious? -What is our resurrection like? (And does it differ from Jesus' Resurrection?) -Are ghosts real? (You'll be surprised at what the Church Fathers have to say.) -What is the difference between Heaven and Paradise? -Which of our parts will accompany us to Heaven (and which must be left behind)? -In Heaven, do we still eat and drink? -If, as Jesus says, there's no marrying in heaven, are we still male and female there? -After our resurrection, will we, like Jesus, be able to pass through matter? -And many more fascinating questions answered!
