The Final Judgment
The definitive judgment of all humanity by Christ at the end of time.
The Final Judgment (or General Judgment) will occur at the Second Coming of Christ when all the dead will be raised and the truth of each person's relationship with God will be revealed (CCC 1038-1040). It will manifest the final triumph of justice and love (CCC 1040).
The Kingdom in Fullness
At the Final Judgment, the Kingdom of God will come in its fullness, and the righteous will reign with Christ forever in a renewed heaven and earth (CCC 1042-1050).
Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from the Particular Judgment? The Particular Judgment happens immediately at death for each individual; the Final Judgment happens for all humanity at the end of time (CCC 1021-1022, 1038).
May the Lord bless you and keep you.
