Paragraph:
1013 Death is the end of man's earthly pilgrimage, of the time of grace and mercy which God offers him so as to work out his earthly life in keeping with the divine plan, and to decide his ultimate destiny. When "the single course of our earthly life" is completed, 586 we shall not return to other earthly lives: "It is appointed for men to die once." 587 There is no "reincarnation" after death.
