We believe in the personal, bodily, and visible return of Jesus Christ. We believe in the resurrection of the dead and the translation of those alive in Jesus Christ, the judgment of the just and the unjust, and the fulfillment of Christ’s kingdom in the new heavens and the new earth. We believe that Satan, with his hosts and all those outside Christ, will be separated from the loving presence of God, enduring eternal punishment, but the righteous, in glorious bodies, shall live and reign with Him forever. The righteous will serve Him and give Him unending praise and glory. Then shall the eager expectation of creation be fulfilled, and the whole earth shall proclaim the glory of God, who makes all things new.
