Faith Q&A › My Faith

Does not speaking of matters which pertain to the End of Times invoke fear?

The answer

The matter is not so, for the Final Day will be fearful for the wicked (2 Pet. 3:7-12), but will be a day that is full of glory for the faithful, for the Master will make all things new (Rev. 21:5).

The End of Times should not invoke fear, for it is the day that follows the night, and through Baptism, we have entered the new world which is to come (2 Cor. 5:17).

Speaking of the End of Times should invoke us to watch and to be constantly vigilant, preparing in prayer for the joyous hour when the Son of Man will come.
