26. THE QUESTION WAS:
The moment we die, our souls
are detached from our bodies.
When are our bodies reunited
with our souls for eternity?
a.
Judgment Day
b.
When we leave purgatory
c.
40 days after dying
THE
ANSWER IS
.A
Our souls and our bodies will be reunited on Judgment Day, which
is the last day of Earth, which is the day Christ will return to Earth in glory
to judge the living and the dead.
Those
in heaven get glorified bodies, which will be incorruptible. They will never be
sick or feel pain again. Those in hell
get bodies which will feel severe pain. No matter how severe the pain, the
bodies will be incapable of dying.
Our bodies are sacred, and
well have them eternally, so we are called to take care of them.
