XXXVI.
As these things, therefore, of which we have
spoken before are in the future, beloved, when the one week is divided
into parts, and the abomination of desolation has arisen then, and the
forerunners of the Lord have finished their proper course, and the
whole world, in fine, comes to the consummation, what remains but the
manifestation
1974
of our Lord and
Saviour Jesus Christ, the Son of God, from heaven, for whom we have
hoped; who shall bring forth fire and all just judgment against those
who have refused to believe in Him? For the Lord says, “For
as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the
west, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be; for wheresoever
the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered
together.”
1975
For the
sign of the cross
1976
shall arise
from the east even unto the west, in brightness exceeding that of the
sun, and shall announce the advent and manifestation of the Judge, to
give to every one according to his works. For concerning the
general resurrection and the kingdom of the saints, Daniel says:
“And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall
awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting
contempt.”
1977
And
Isaiah says: “The dead shall rise, and those in the tombs
shall awake, and those in the earth shall rejoice.”
1978
And our
Lord says: “Many
1979
in that day shall hear the voice of the
Son of God, and they that hear shall live.”
