Article 2 IN THE FULLNESS OF TIME

From The Catechism of the Catholic Church

2606
All the troubles, for all time, of humanity enslaved by sin and death, all the
petitions and intercessions of salvation history are summed up in this cry of
the incarnate Word. Here the Father accepts them and, beyond all hope, answers
them by raising his Son. Thus is fulfilled and brought to completion the drama
of prayer in the economy of creation and salvation. the Psalter gives us the
key to prayer in Christ. In the “today” of the Resurrection the
Father says: “You are my Son, today I have begotten you. Ask of me, and I
will make the nations your heritage, and the ends of the earth your
possession.”⁶²
