I. He Will Come Again in Glory
672
Before his Ascension Christ affirmed that the hour had not yet come for the
glorious establishment of the messianic kingdom awaited by Israel561
which, according to the prophets, was to bring all men the definitive order of
justice, love and peace.562 According to the Lord, the present time is
the time of the Spirit and of witness, but also a time still marked by
“distress” and the trial of evil which does not spare the Church563
and ushers in the struggles of the last days. It is a time of waiting and
watching.564
