Last Sunday after Pentecost 2011
Death comes to us all, and at the moment of our death judgment is passed instantaneously.  No longer distracted by the material world, the soul is given a direct intuition of its state in the eyes of God and its eternal abode is fixed forever.  The Holy Souls thirst for our prayers, because they are utterly incapable of helping themselves anymore.

The end of the world is spoken of by Christ more than any other topic.  No matter what happens in the times to come, we must maintain trust in God, knowing that He will not let anything happen to the souls of His friends.  The reason there will be a General Judgment is because every sin has a public aspect to it, and God’s justice must be vindicated publicly.  God gives us signs predicting the end of time to console the just and frighten the wicked, and we must be able to recognize these nine signs, so we may know when our judgment is at hand.
