Will there be a religion closer to GOD in heaven when we all get back home??
 
The Catholic Church subsists most fully in Heaven–what is called the “Church Triumphant” because there her members have been purified of their sins. At the resurrection of the body, the Kingdom of God will be fully and definitively actualized (even though it is already present in the Church), and the Church will exist perfectly with nothing lacking.
 
The church Triumphant is every body of believers Catholic or not it is not just the Catholic Church

I thought everyone who believes was purified of their sins regardless of religion.

What I mean is that in Heaven everyone is in full communion with the Catholic Church even though they might not have been on earth. It’s the same Church, but in Heaven she has reached the destination of her journey.
 
Wrong it is not the same church in fact the title Catholic will not be tagged to anyone nor will any other religion there will be no CATHOLIC CHURCH in heaven names will be gone

What da!!!
Full communion with the Catholic Church even in Heaven!!!
Let it go, No Catholic Church in heaven thats for earth.
Communion with God is the only Communion there is and you will not know if the Catholic Church is in full communion with God until you get back there.

I understand your how you feel about your Catholic faith and I respect that,stay strong in it but Catholics like everyone else will get their rewards according to their works so get on line like the rest of us.😉
 
The Catholic Church is over in heaven just like all the other religions so enjoy it now here on earth. Bring a chair also because it will be a looooooong line! 😃

I’m just trying to present the Catholic Church’s teaching on this matter. 🙂

Communion with God means communion with one another. Christ redeems the whole of man–including his relationships. The bonds of communion that we have with other people are important to God! That’s why he commanded us to love one another. If that love didn’t endure in Heaven, what kind of love would it be?

Those in Heaven have the perfection of Charity, which the Catholic Church believes is the primary bond of communion. This is why even those who are members of the Catholic Church, if they do not persist in Charity will not go to Heaven. It’s also why those who are not members of the Catholic Church visibly on earth can still be in an invisible, even implicit relationship to it if they have Charity and can be saved.

Salvation is not a strictly individual thing–it means being a part of the Body of Christ, the Church.

If you have a lot of time 🙂 and want to read more, the Church promulgated a document called Lumen Gentium and another called Dominus Iesus, which helps explain it regarding salvation.

If the Church that Christ founded doesn’t exist in Heaven, then he must not have done a very good job.

Matthew 16:17 And Jesus answering, said to him: Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-Jona: because flesh and blood hath not revealed it to thee, but my Father who is in heaven. 18 And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. 19 And I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven. And whatsoever thou shalt bind upon earth, it shall be bound also in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose upon earth, it shall be loosed also in heaven.

Where does Our Lord say that He is building anything else?

Doesn’t say a thing about a book or books or letters…
Check your history and the New Testament…there’s no other Christian religion that can trace it’s origins to Our Lord Himself. Much as all you n-Cs/a-Cs wish you could. It’s just not there…just like the foundational errors of Sola Scriptura and Sola Fide. New winds of doctrines of men and another gospel…500 years old at most, unless you go back and borrow one of the even earlier heresies to preach.
