THE LIFE HEREAFTER

By W Tureia Puha, Uawa.

Chapter VI – ‘The Resurrection.’

The resurrection from Te Reinga of those who have died is one of the most important things for our hearts to consider and think about because it supports what has been pointed out in previous articles in Te Kopara, namely, that Te Reinga is not the ultimate destination for us, for our souls. If Te Reinga is our ultimate destination then what I’ve said is not right, but a resurrection is quite another thing.
