II. Dying in Christ Jesus
1013
Death is the end of man’s earthly pilgrimage, of the time of grace and mercy
which God offers him so as to work out his earthly life in keeping with the
divine plan, and to decide his ultimate destiny. When “the single course
of our earthly life” is completed,584 we shall not return to other
earthly lives: “It is appointed for men to die once.”585
There is no “reincarnation” after death.
