Westminster Shorter Catechism 37

Comments(3) While studying for ordination, I have been memorizing the shorter catechsim once again and came across #37. I have found it quite encouraging and it goes along with the sermon preached this past Sunday that our bodies will be raised up and reunited with our souls at Christ’s second coming, but before then will remain in the grave. This might even be one of my favorites!
Q. What benefits do believers receive from Christ at death?
A. The souls of believers are at their death made perfect in holiness, and do immediately pass into glory; and their bodies, being still united to Christ, do rest in their graves, till their resurrection.
