What do United Methodists believe?

This is the eighth in a series of brief articles summarizing the doctrinal beliefs of the United Methodist Church.


WHAT DO WE BELIEVE ABOUT HEAVEN AND HELL?


Jesus will judge the living and the dead.

Those who have not accepted Jesus' offer of forgiveness and new life are at risk of living apart from him for all eternity.

Jesus Christ alone is empowered to judge one's eternal destiny.


The Nicene Creed:

"He [Jesus] will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead."


Article XII, The Confession of Faith, The United Methodist Book of Discipline:

"We believe all persons stand under the righteous judgment of Jesus Christ, both now and in the last day. We believe in the resurrection of the dead; the righteous to life eternal and the wicked to endless condemnation."


Next time: What do we believe about the Second Coming?
