ARGUMENT FOR THE LIFE HEREAFTER

Argument for the Life Hereafter ~ 177 ~ ARGUMENT FOR THE LIFE HEREAFTER One of the most important tenets of religion is the reality of the life hereafter. After death, human beings will leave this present ephemeral world, and, on the Day of Judgement, will enter another world, which will be eternal. The present world is but a place of trial where man, throughout his entire life span, is on probation. When the time has come for the Last Reckoning, God will destroy this world and replace it by another world created on an entirely different pattern. All human beings will then be resurrected and will be brought before the Almighty to be judged: it is then that they shall be rewarded, or punished, according to the merits and demerits of their deeds on this earth. We shall now examine this concept from different standpoints and determine whether it is right or wrong to believe in this probability.
