3. Everyone with any religion knows and acknowledges that someone who lives right is saved, and that someone who does not live right is damned. They know and acknowledge this because of heaven’s conjunction with those who know from the Word of the existence of God, of the existence of heaven and hell, and of the existence of life after death. That is what produces this common perception.
Consequently, in the doctrine of the Athanasian Creed regarding the Trinity, which is everywhere accepted in the Christian world, we find at the end also this universally accepted statement, namely,
Jesus Christ, who suffered for our salvation, ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of the Almighty Father. From there He will come to judge the living and the dead..., and then those who have done good will enter into life everlasting, and those who have done evil into everlasting fire.
