Questions 81 – 90
Q. 81. Are all true believers at all times assured
of their presently being in the state
of grace and that they will be saved?
A. Assurance of grace and salvation are not of the essence of faith.a Thus, true believers may wait long before they obtain it.b Also, after the enjoyment of it, they may have it weakened and interrupted through many kinds of disturbances, sins, temptations, and desertions.c However, they are never left without sufficient presence and support of the Spirit of God to keep them from sinking into utter despair.d

Q. 82. What [are the times of] the communion in
glory that the members of the invisible Church have with Christ?
A. The [times of the] communion in glory that the members of the invisible Church have with Christ are:
- In this lifea
- Immediately after deathb
- At last perfected at the resurrection and day of judgmentc

; c1 Thessalonians 4:17 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB)
Q. 83. What is the communion in glory with Christ that
the members of the invisible Church enjoy in this life?
A. In this life, the members of the invisible Church have transferred to them the first–fruits of glory with Christ because they are members of Him, their head. Thus, in Him, they share in that glory of which He is fully possessed.a And, as an earnest of this glory, they enjoy the sense of God’s love,b peace of conscience, joy in the Holy Spirit, and hope of glory.c On the contrary, the sense of God’s revenging wrath, horror of conscience, and a fearful expectation of judgment are the beginning of torments that the wicked will endure after death.d

Q. 84. Will all men die?

aRomans 6:23 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB)
; bHebrews 9:27 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB)
; cRomans 5:12
Q. 85. Because death is the wages of sin, why are not the
righteous delivered from death, since all their sins are forgiven in Christ?
A. The righteous will be delivered from death itself at the last day. Even in death they are delivered from the sting and curse of it.a Thus, although they die, it is out of God’s love [that He uses death]b to free them perfectly from sin and miseryc and to make them capable of further communion with Christ in glory, which they then enter into.d

Q. 86. What is the communion in glory with Christ that
the members of the invisible Church enjoy immediately after death?
A. The communion in glory with Christ that the members of the invisible Church enjoy immediately after death is:
- Their souls are at that time made perfect in holinessa and received into the highest heavensb where they behold the face of God in light and gloryc
- They wait for the full redemption of their bodies,d which even in death continue united to Christ.e Their bodies rest in their graves, as in their beds,f until at the last day when they are again united to their soulsg
On the other hand, at their death, the souls of the wicked are cast into hell where they remain in torments and utter darkness. Their bodies are kept in their graves, as in their prisons, until the resurrection and judgment of the great day.h

Q. 87. What are we to believe concerning the
resurrection?
A. We are to believe that at the last day there will be a general resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.a At which time, those who are then alive will be changed in a moment, and the selfsame bodies of the dead that are laid in the grave will be again united to their souls forever, raised up by the power of Christ.b By the Spirit of Christ, and by virtue of His resurrection as their head, the bodies of the just will be raised in power, spiritual, incorruptible, and made like His glorious body.c The bodies of the wicked will be raised up in dishonor by Christ, an offended judge.d

Q. 89. What will be done to the wicked at the day
of judgment?
A. At the day of judgment the wicked will be set on Christ’s left hand.a There, upon clear evidence and full conviction of their own consciences,b they will have the fearful, but just, sentence of condemnation pronounced against them.c They will thus be cast into hell, out from the favorable presence of God and the glorious fellowship with Christ, His saints, and all His holy angels. In hell, they will be punished with unspeakable torments, both of body and soul, with the devil and his angels forever.d

; 2 Thessalonians 1:8–9 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB)
Q. 90. What will be done for the righteous at the
day of judgment?
A. At the day of judgment, the righteous will be caught up to Christ in the clouds.a They will be set at His right hand, and there openly acknowledged and acquitted.b They will join with Him in judging reprobate angels and men.c They will be received into heaven,d where they will be:
· Fully and forever freed from all sin and miserye
· Filled with inconceivable joysf
· Made perfectly holy and happy, both in body and soul
· In the company of innumerable saints and holy angels,g but especially in the immediate vision and fruition of God the Father, of our Lord Jesus Christ, and of the Holy Spirit, to all eternityh
This is the perfect and full communion that the members of the invisible Church will enjoy with Christ in glory at the resurrection and day of judgment.

1A Song. A Psalm of the Sons of Korah. To
the choirmaster: according to Mahalath Leannoth. A Maskil of Heman the
Ezrahite. O Lord, God of my salvation; I cry out day and night before you. 2Let my
prayer come before you; incline your ear to my cry! 3For my soul is full of troubles, and my
life draws near to Sheol. 4I am counted among those who go down to
the pit; I am a man who has no strength, 5like one set loose among the dead, like
the slain that lie in the grave, like those whom you remember no more, for they
are cut off from your hand. 6You have put me in the depths of the pit,
in the regions dark and deep. 7Your wrath lies heavy upon me, and you
overwhelm me with all your waves. Selah 8You have caused my companions to shun me; you have
made me a horror to them. I am shut in so that I cannot escape; 9my eye
grows dim through sorrow. Every day I call upon you, O Lord; I spread out my
hands to you. 10Do you work wonders for the dead? Do the departed
rise up to praise you? Selah 11Is your steadfast love declared in the grave, or
your faithfulness in Abaddon? 12Are your wonders known in the darkness, or
your righteousness in the land of forgetfulness? 13But I, O Lord, cry to you; in the morning
my prayer comes before you. 14O Lord, why do you cast my soul away? Why
do you hide your face from me? 15Afflicted and close to death from my youth
up, I suffer your terrors; I am helpless. 16Your wrath has swept over me; your
dreadful assaults destroy me. 17They surround me like a flood all day
long; they close in on me together. 18You have caused my beloved and my friend
to shun me; my companions have become darkness.
Psalm 88 (KJ3) Back
1¶ A Song. A Psalm for the Sons
of Korah, to the chief musician on Mahalath, to make humble. A Poem of Heman
the Ezrahite. O Jehovah God of my salvation, I have cried in the day, in
the night before You.
2 Let my prayer come before You;
stretch out Your ear to my cry.
3 For my soul is full with evils,
and my life draws near Sheol.
4 I am counted with those who go
down to the Pit; I have been like a man without strength,
5 free among the dead, as pierced
ones lying in the grave, whom You remember no more; yea, by Your hand they are
cut off.
6 You have laid me in the lowest
pit, in dark places, in the deeps.
7 Your fury has lain hard upon me,
and You afflict me with all Your waves. Selah.
8 You have taken ones knowing me
from me; You have made me a disgusting thing to them; I am shut up, I
will not go out.
9 My eye mourns because of
affliction; O Jehovah, I have called on You every day; I have spread out my
palms to You.
10¶ For will You do wonders for
those dying? Or shall the departed spirits rise and thank You? Selah.
11 Shall Your mercy be declared in
the grave, Your faithfulness amidst ruin?
12 Shall Your wonders be known in
the dark, and Your righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?
13 But to You I have cried, O
Jehovah; and in the morning my prayer shall go before You.
14 O Jehovah, why do You cast off
my soul; why do You hide Your face from me?
15 I am an afflicted one and
dying from youth; I suffer Your terrors; I am distracted.
16 Your fierce wrath passes over
me; Your terrors have cut me off.
17 They surrounded me like waters all
the day; they have together gone around me.
18 You have taken lover and friend
far from me, he who knows me, into darkness.

Ezrahite. O Lord, the God of my salvation, I have cried out by day and in the
night before You. 2Let my prayer come before You; Incline Your ear to
my cry! 3For my soul has had enough troubles, And my life has drawn near to Sheol. 4I am
reckoned among those who go down to the pit; I have become like a man without
strength, 5Forsaken among the dead, Like the slain who lie in
the grave, Whom You remember no more, And they are cut off from Your hand. 6You have
put me in the lowest pit, In dark places, in the depths. 7Your wrath has rested upon me, And You
have afflicted me with all Your waves.Selah. 8You have removed my acquaintances far from
me; You have made me an object of loathing to them; I am shut up and cannot go
out. 9My eye has wasted away because of affliction; I have called upon You every
day, O Lord; I have spread out my hands to You. 10Will You perform wonders for the dead?
Will the departed spirits rise and praise You?Selah. 11Will Your lovingkindness be declared in
the grave, Your faithfulness in Abaddon? 12Will Your wonders be made known in the
darkness? And Your righteousness in the land of forgetfulness? 13But I,
O Lord, have cried out to You for help, And in the morning my prayer comes
before You. 14O Lord, why do You reject my soul? Why do You hide
Your face from me? 15I was afflicted and about to die from my youth on;
I suffer Your terrors; I am overcome. 16Your burning anger has passed over me;
Your terrors have destroyed me. 17They have surrounded me like water all day
long; They have encompassed me altogether. 18You have removed lover and friend far from
me; My acquaintances are in darkness.

afflicted and ready to die from my youth up.

wrath has gone over me.

put lover and friend far from me,
Psalm 77:1–12 (ESV) Back
1To the choirmaster: according to Jeduthun.
A Psalm of Asaph. I cry aloud to God, aloud to God, and he will hear me. 2In the
day of my trouble I seek the Lord; in the night my hand is stretched out
without wearying; my soul refuses to be comforted. 3When I remember God, I moan; when I
meditate, my spirit faints. Selah 4You hold my eyelids open; I am so troubled that I
cannot speak. 5I consider the days of old, the years long ago. 6I said,
“Let me remember my song in the night; let me meditate in my heart.” Then my
spirit made a diligent search: 7“Will the Lord spurn forever, and never
again be favorable? 8Has his steadfast love forever ceased? Are his
promises at an end for all time? 9Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has he
in anger shut up his compassion?” Selah 10Then I said, “I will appeal to this, to the years
of the right hand of the Most High.” 11I will remember the deeds of the Lord;
yes, I will remember your wonders of old. 12I will ponder all your work, and meditate
on your mighty deeds.

2 In the day of my distress I
sought the Lord; my hand spread out in the night and did not grow benumbed; my
soul refused to be comforted.
3 I remember God and am troubled;
I meditate and my spirit faints. Selah.
4 You seized the watches of my
eyes; I am troubled and I cannot speak.
5 I thought upon the days of old,
the years of bygone ages.
6 I will remember my song in the
night; I will meditate with my own heart, and my spirit searches.
7 Will the Lord cast off forever;
and will He not add to be pleased any more?
8 Is His kindness gone forever?
Has His Word failed to generation and generation?
9 Has God forgotten to be
gracious; has He in anger shut up His tender mercies? Selah.
10 And I said, This is my
sickness, the years of the right hand of the Most High;
11¶ I will remember the works of
Jah; surely I will remember Your wonders of old.
12 And I will also meditate on all
Your works and muse of Your doings.

1For the choir director; according to
Jeduthun. A Psalm of Asaph. My voice rises to God, and I will cry aloud; My
voice rises to God, and He will hear me. 2In the day of my trouble I sought the
Lord; In the night my hand was stretched out without weariness; My soul refused
to be comforted. 3When I remember God, then I am disturbed; When I
sigh, then my spirit grows faint.Selah. 4You have held my eyelids open; I am so
troubled that I cannot speak. 5I have considered the days of old, The
years of long ago. 6I will remember my song in the night; I will
meditate with my heart, And my spirit ponders: 7Will the Lord reject forever? And will He
never be favorable again? 8Has His lovingkindness ceased forever? Has
His promise come to an end forever? 9Has God forgotten to be gracious, Or has
He in anger withdrawn His compassion?Selah. 10Then I said, “It is my grief, That the
right hand of the Most High has changed.” 11I shall remember the deeds of the Lord;
Surely I will remember Your wonders of old. 12I will meditate on all Your work And muse
on Your deeds.
