Which are the similarities between the eschatology of the Catholic church and...?

Question

This question refers among others, to Christian churches like Jehova Witnesses. Adventists, Mormons, Baptists, Presbyterian and anyone you can thilnk of..

Answer 1

The term "eschatology" refers to the study of the so-called "end times", or "last days". Jehovah's Witnesses teach that mankind has been in the "last days" or "conclusion of the system of things" since 1914, and Armageddon is imminent.

Jehovah's Witnesses understand the Scriptures to teach that God's Kingdom is a real government, which will soon replace all earthly governments.
(Daniel 2:44) God of heaven will set up a kingdom... It will crush and put an end to all these kingdoms, and it itself will stand to times indefinite

That Kingdom will rule over the vast majority of mankind, most of whom will have been raised from the dead after Armageddon.
(John 11:23,24) Jesus said to her: “Your brother will rise.” Martha said to him: “I know he will rise in the resurrection on the last day.”
(Acts 24:15) There is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous.

Until that resurrection, there is no suffering in "hell", or the grave. Sometime after the resurrection, death and "hell" will themselves be destroyed.
(Ecclesiastes 9:5) For the living are conscious that they will die; but as for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all
(Ecclesiastes 9:10) there is no work nor devising nor knowledge nor wisdom in Sheol ["hell"]
(Revelation 20:14) And death and Hades ["hell"] were hurled into the lake of fire

While a limitted number of humans will be resurrected to heaven to share in ruling over mankind, the vast majority (literally more than 99.9%) of Jehovah's Witnesses expect an EARTHLY hope, the same hope given to Adam and Eve.
(Genesis 1:28) God blessed them and God said to them: “Be fruitful and become many and fill THE EARTH and subdue it [caps added]
(Genesis 2:17) You must not eat from it, for in the day you eat from it you will positively die [so never eating from that tree means never dying]

Interestingly, the Scriptures are full of references to this earthly hope.
(Psalms 37:11) 'the meek will possess the earth'
(Proverbs 2:21) 'upright will reside in the earth'
(Isaiah 45:18) 'God formed the earth to be inhabited'
(Matthew 5:5) 'the mild will inherit the earth'
(Revelation 21:3) The tent of God is with mankind

Answer 2

As far as similarities I don't think there are any. If there is then they are very slight. One would have to study the beliefs of each of the above mention groups to see just what they believe about end time events. There are more diversities than similarities. I think this is a very good question and suggest you get a book on world religions. That would help you to discover any likenesses in their belief systems.

Answer 3

Catholics don't expect a milllenial 1000 year period. Just the return of Christ, resurrection of the dead, judgment, and eternity.
