Eternal life and blessing for the faithful; eschatological hope central
The Kimbanguist Church affirms that heaven is the eternal home of all the faithful who have maintained their faith in Christ and obedience to church teaching. Heaven represents eternal communion with God and the fullness of God's blessing. This eschatological hope is central to Kimbanguist spirituality and provides comfort and motivation.
