  • thecookieprincess In fact, in factions of Christianity there is a certain belief: good works are as important as faith for salvation, or that all you have to do is believe and you already receive salvation, otherwise Hell awaits you, no matter what kind of person you were in your lifetime. But let's be clear, would such a fate for the souls of good people who kept the commandments and helped people but for various reasons did not come to know God be just? God, like for suicides, has another place prepared for them in this story. Among others, dissenters and atheists end up here. This “other Heaven” is not just about punishment for lack of faith, but about giving these souls a chance to transform and move to a higher spiritual state. It is a place that is not insubstantial or secluded, but rather a chance to achieve full understanding and connection with the divine. Souls who end up there will not be punished, but will have time to discover, understand and experience God in a way they never had the opportunity to before. Souls who end up there will feel a certain emptiness - not like in Hell, where there is suffering, but rather as if they are missing something, don't understand something. These souls may meet others who have already gone through this process, people who know God and can help them, but not through religious indoctrination. Rather, through the “light” and understanding that permeates their lives. This is not a place that forces a confession of faith on souls, but gives them a chance to understand and experience spirituality in a way they themselves can accept it. Souls in this “Heaven” go through a process of knowing God. Their emptiness gradually disappears, replaced by understanding, love and fullness. When this emptiness disappears, they will be ready to enter the full “Heaven,” which is the fullness of union with God. However, this will not be an easy process, but rather a long spiritual journey.
