Please explain the second coming of Christ from the Catholic standpoint. A—The Rev. Demetrius B Zema, S. J.. of Fordham University answers as follows: In Catholic belief, the second coming of Christ means that, at the end of the world, Christ will return in power and majesty to summon all nations, living and dead, to a general and final judgment. "The principal gospel texts on which this belief .is based are: Matthew x. 21-24; xvi, 27; xxiv, 25; Mark ix,3B; Luke xxi.s-33; iv. 26. In these passages Christ not only foretells His second coming as judge of the world, but He also graphically describes the signs that shall precede it and the circumstances that shall accompany it. "Among the premonitory signs are the extraordinary perturbations of nature, the universal conconflagration, and the trumpet call that will awaken the dead to resurrection.

tain; the place is on earth; those to be judged are all men both good and bad. and in the judgment pronounced the relations of the Creator with His creatures will find their culmination, find the human race will attain its final destiny. ‘ The second coming of Christ for the final judgment must not be confused with the theory of the so-called millenium or of a thousand years of terres'ial reign of Christ with the saints to precede the end of the world. Althought this idea was entertained by several fathers of the first four centuries, it was never a doctrine of the Catholic Church.” Girl. 12, to Give Piano Recital Jean Coapstick. 12. pupil of Prof. A.
